What's this?

I think if the only goal for VT was to win a national title in


a sport, they could do so within 5 years. All they'd have to do is add some obscure sport that few schools really care about and then infuse it with tons of money. For example, just invest an outsized portion of budget to a fencing team. Steal the best coach in the country away from Stanford or UVA and we could win a NC within a few years. But that would be a dumb thing to do.

Instead, we invest our resources in a robust set of programs and continue doing our best to be successful. It is what it is. I fully agree, the list of P5 schools who don't have a NC in one of the "big 2" sports is quite lengthy.
