I agree but the coots have shown they will throw $$$ at a coach and get him. Their membership in the SEC doesn't hurt either. Not sure VT will even come close to paying the amount of $$$ that the coots will.

VT is a better job period. Coaches have proven that you can win championships at VT, something that 2 coaching legends were not able to do in Cootville. Blacksburg is also a beautiful place to live and attend college, unlike the armpit in the midlands. Everything about VT is better...facilities, stadium, campus, city, education, history, etc.

Also recruiting. There's just so much talent in the Mike Vick/Tajh Boyd area. The pickings are kind of slim in SC and it takes years to build relationships with out of state high school programs. I think the VT position will just be a plug and play, for the right person.

As I've said in previous post predicting beamer would announce his retirement, Justin Fuente will be about 95% to be the next VA tech head coach.

What about Foster?? Will loyalty keep him on staff, or

will he now seek other opportunities (I think he could still get a HC gig at a SoCon or equiv school---or possibly a Coordinator position at another Div 1 school)

I would say yes but SC is offering a lot of money and a lot of coaches are dependent based on conference. I would say VT is one of the more premier openings so far. Second being Miami.

Money wise I would say the three best jobs that are open right now are:
1. Southern Cal
2. South Carolina
3. VT
4. Miami
Don't know what kind of money VT can throw around, so Miami and VT could flip flop.
