I keep hearing it is a very very strong chance. I even heard an agreement has been reached. Would this be the first time a G5 coach with a losing record got a call up to a storied P5 program?

Al was also a major candidate (but not hired) at UCLA after his second season at Temple with records of 1-10 and 4-8 his first two seasons. Neuheisel ended up getting the job.

VT, IMO, is one of the best jobs in the country.

For the right fit, I agree to an extent (you can recruit DC and Hampton Roads very well at VT, but it is otherwise far from recruiting grounds and will never be on the level of the jobs at Bama, Texas, A&M, USC, Florida, Ohio State, LSU, or Michigan). But Chad, with his recruiting contacts being mainly in Texas and his family connections in Texas, may not be the right fit - and he's not the type that takes jobs unless the fit is there.
I don't think Herman or Fuente would be the guy there either.

VT is the perfect middle ground between the DMV, PA/NY/NJ and the deep south

Sounds like a job for Matt Rhule. Not trying to troll but I could see him doing well there. Temple looks a lot like the VT of 5 to 10 years ago to me.
