I feel like this is quite the reach. Sure, he's had some good seasons, but there's a lot of mediocrity mixed in there

Yeah, to go from Buzz to possibly Willard to Mike Young doesn't seem like the progression you want to see in your coaching search, but some of the CBB media likes it

It's cool with me. We're trying to recruit the DMV and this will hopefully be one less fish in that pond

AAC coach to the SEC. SEC coach to the AAC. It all makes sense when you don’t think about it.

Doesn't "a win for the good guys in the business" usually end up being a loss for the hiring program?

Yeah this sounds like when Nebraska hired Mike Riley lol

I thought Wofford's offense was kind of out of control. He had a once in a lifetime shooter that was able to attract some decent talent around him, but they played like idiots at times, and their shot selection would be embarrassing in a pickup game.

Everyone remembers where they were the day Nebraska hired Mike Riley.

Seems like the AAC did well in the coaching carousel. Didn't lose any talent and upgraded at Tulane. Should continue to get better as long as the core coaches stay and schools like ECU and Tulane continue to improve.

He's a Virginia guy, born, raised went to school and college in VA
Makes a lot of sense
A serious Xs and Os guy

I suspect they're hoping he will stick around given his backround.

3rd VT transfer

We were on Landers Nolley pretty hard correct? Why did he sit out last year?

Seems like it was just eligibility issues circling around his ACT scores: Landers Nolley had to retake ACT to be cleared

I am not a fan. Let VT jump on this hand grenade.
