About this episode
Virginia Tech has an incredible fanbase and a history, in this century, as one of the best programs in the country. But those things only count for so much, and the Hokies are now facing an existential moment: Catch up in the financial arms race, or fade further from relevance. In this episode, Alex and Richard discuss:
* Why Brent Pry failed
* Why the concept of “fit” in this job is extremely hard to figure out, unless you are literally Frank Beamer’s son. (And in that case, you have a conventionally better job.)
* Tech’s place in the ACC and why TV viewership is everything
* The bells and whistles the Hokies have lacked
* The questions any candidate will want answered
* How much does an amazing game day atmosphere still matter?
* “I do not think Michael Vick is going to get this job”
* Verdict time: Good job, bad job, or circumstantial?
Producer: Anthony Vito
