I think he should have just taken $7.5M if he he quit with 2 games left -- Flanker 11/17/2021 11:11AM
It is not a "bonus" it is a buyout. Big difference. Why fire him if he is -- wwhokie1 11/17/2021 11:06AM
Why does he deserve a big buy our if he can't do the job. He failed to do -- TrueGrit69 11/17/2021 11:29AM

The 43-31 record is deceiving. -- RJHokie 11/17/2021 10:27AM

No one expects a head coach to come in and win a NC immediately. -- jbroo034 11/17/2021 12:59PM
VT is a bottom half, headed to bottom third football job in the ACC. -- IronBlood 11/17/2021 1:21PM
VT could easily be brought back to the top of the ACC. You’re insane if you -- jbroo034 11/17/2021 2:11PM

Sure there is. He knows he gets $2.5 mill less if he waits until Dec. 16 -- n2beaches 11/17/2021 10:48AM
Right... there's zero incentive for him to step away before then. That's -- AbsolutVT03 11/17/2021 1:35PM

I will, thanks ** -- whatIpostlike 11/17/2021 10:07AM
He is actually taking less money. ** -- dllawson 11/17/2021 09:58AM
Because he didn't want to finish the season... i.e. he quit ** -- whatIpostlike 11/17/2021 10:08AM
Sorry to inform your prejudice but he got Whit to admit he was fired. -- TomTurkey 11/17/2021 10:45AM
He was due 10 mil. He got 8.75 mil. Your post -- fordham 11/17/2021 09:57AM
