Not just coaching positions if you look at our AD.

I'd rather hire Dee and roll the dice.

I dont think so.   They are talking to some more established guys to fill the other hole.

What’s Jay Price doing these days? Wonder if they still have his number...

Cant speak for Orlando but Coleman can’t stand him. Is that why he left? Probably not, I think he jumps anyways.

Underwood brought him here, it’s hard to fire him and not a very good look. Perfect scenario is he gets another job and problem solved.

Any inkling as to why Gentry is unliked?

Chester is your #2, not #3...#3 is going to be very likely either 1 last year of Gentnutz or Alexander

That is the issue. They now have to land an absolute ace recruiter for the other spot as we can't get rid of Barney Fife.

We lost one national recruiter with major rep and cred, and a second recruiter who could get in the door in Chicago at least and claim he got and developed an AA and NBA guy.

Chet will start from scratch and get little play in Chicago or StL, and had no pipeline from KSU or VT from anywhere.

The next guy needs to be really good or we are relying on the vast charisma of Hulka, and pretty much back to Weber level approach of trying to wow farmboys.

Most of the VT Boards actually credit Frazier as being the main reason for any success and are surprised he hasn't been pegged for a HC gig somewhere already? He fits what we need, and he certainly is being linked to most if not all recruiting success at VT. He also has been mentioned as being more important to the program than the head coach presently.

I think he fits into OA role as Asst HC easily....the actual recruiting part of it....we will see, but I do agree with need to get an established recruiter on board as well. Hopefully Chester surprises us arm chair coaches. I think he will. I like the hire. I don't think the "3rd" guy on the bench carries any weight  with recruits.


I had my suspicions, but didn't want to say it, but the algorithm here says Mammydork.

Chester Frazier? FML

It wasn’t enough we had to suffer through 4 years of watching him play?

I’m fine with Frazier as the 2nd guy if we get a stud first guy. Frazier has an objectively better resume than Chin did coming in.

Was not a huge Chin fan, but he had a nice college career under a well respected coach, and the fact that he coached in the Irvin Fire system was his biggest calling card, of course.
Agree, Frazier likely has more high D1 experience in general. I am sure he will work hard, will be a team player, and we don't have to worry about him banging a booster, or being caught as a bagman in a recruiting deal.

Interesting theory. The Groce love has been missing though?

I may have spoke too soon about not finding work for the strip club manager Bergeron
