I am not comparing VT's hirings of Wolff and Brooks

I am comparing VT's hiring of Wolff and JMU's hiring of Brooks.

Its not a close call, Wolff was the safer, more experienced hire.

Just goes to show there are no guarantees and some outside the box (or lazy depending on your perspective) approaches work and some don't.

Kinda funny that Kenny Brooks was a "down the hall" hire at JMU... -- VictoryTurkey 03/30/2016 11:31PM

How much of a coaching search was done before each hire? ** -- Rudy 2 03/31/2016 11:47AM

Similar lack of search...Brooks was made interim then permanent ** -- VictoryTurkey 04/02/2016 8:51PM

I often think before I post on this brd because any post garners down votes -- VictoryTurkey 03/31/2016 09:20AM

No comparison between the 2 at the time we hired them. -- HokieR 03/31/2016 09:01AM

Agreed. The comparison doesn't work and you don't have to look any fur... -- MExpos27 04/03/2016 07:01AM

Boy is that Apples and Oranges. Maybe you only read the title of my post? -- VictoryTurkey 03/31/2016 09:22AM

But he had been an assistant for the WOMEN'S team ** -- ACCJesse 04/01/2016 09:10AM

You brought up the comparison. So tell me where I am wrong. ** -- HokieR 03/31/2016 09:32AM

OK. Good news is its a bright new day for WBB -- HokieR 03/31/2016 09:57AM

I just gave you an up vote...I don't know why anyone downvoted last post ** -- VictoryTurkey 04/01/2016 11:34AM

Thanks Victory Turkey -- HokieR 04/03/2016 06:36AM

Difference -- VT Rockie 03/31/2016 08:42AM

Initially moved to women's side as an assistant ** -- Bburg Native 03/30/2016 11:38PM

True, but I recall he had barely found his locker before he was made head -- VictoryTurkey 03/31/2016 12:11AM

Perhaps, but was an assistant, then interim HC. Two steps DW never took. ** -- Bburg Native 03/31/2016 06:31AM

One could argue that Dennis' 20 years as head coach trumps -- HokieFan14 03/31/2016 08:46AM
