Makes sense. Heading back home for him. Born and raised in Texas.

I just hope Babcock doesn't come raiding us for Lou Rowe.

Oh my gosh.....you mean VT did not pro-actively give Buzz a HUGE raise so this sort of thing would not happen. What a massive fail by VT AD.

See how stupid that sounds.........but that exact same backward logic got directed at Bourne when VT offered huge $$$ to KB.

A bit of a blow to the ego of an ACC school to lose a coach to a football school. Deep pockets win.

Have Kenny Brooks coach the men's team at VT and Jennifer Brown coach the women's team. Problem solved (only half joking).

Has Stackhouse ever coached at the NCAA level? He's been pretty successful in the G-League and I'm a little surprised he hasn't been given an NBA look yet

I agree, he has the right pedigree and would seem to have as much chance at success as anyone else.

- no head coaching experience.

so both W&M and Elon hire assistant head coaches. once again, a crap shoot and probably what we would be looking at if we were to move from Rowe. another coach learning on the job

Why is it only Men's basketball (even with a new arena) we are only on par with W&M & Elon.

How come W&M used to be 2 steps below us? Did something happen to now give them an advantage over us?

Perhaps we should never get a new coach, because there's not much out there, and our recruits & players will leave.

I'm a little late to this but it does help VT's case that Buzz's alma matter is Texas A&M–Kingsville and he grew up in Texas. Kind of a return home for him and like you said, the $$$ never hurts.

Were they ever two steps below us? You and I were in school together. If my memory isn’t failing me (and it could be), I believe JMU played W&M in the ECAC South finals in Derek Steele’s senior season?

We are in the CAA with both schools you mention so that makes them our peers whether you like it or not.

Come on Dukie - you know under Lou and Lefty we were clearly two steps ahead of W&M. Results, attendance, support - there was no comparison. And at the time, you likely reasoned like most fans, that W&M would always struggle versus JMU due to admissions standards.

There is nobody including you through the mid 90's that thought W&M was anywhere near JMU in Men's college basketball.

We've played Tech 14 times with a record of 4 - 10. 7 times we were the home team. Only played 2 times since 1990. That is enough to tell you where JMU once stood in the MBB world and where we are today.

or it would tell you a lot about the scheduling of P5 teams vs. 20 years ago. va tech is now in the ACC and ACC teams play very few road games other than their conference games and conference challenges. But that wouldnt let you beat down jmu basketball and the administration, would it?

yep, just looked. Va Tech had no road games OOC that werent Conference challenges or part of a tourney. I wont go through the exercise, but I am confident you will find that the case for most power 5s.
