I've noticed a lot of people saying Herman or Mullen or essentially any "home run" hire would be far fetched. Example: someone in a previous thread said "Herman would be biting off more than we can chew" ..and last night some were saying on social media VT would be a step down for Mullen.
Am I crazy but VT is the second best job open only behind Southern Cal and we wouldn't even chase the kind of coach they are.
We have better facilities, better tradition, better fans, and better recruiting grounds than USCe, Mizzou and Mississppi State. Only thing they beat us in is conference prestige. No one wants to work at Miami.
So why are so many viewing these hires as stretches? In my minds eye we are hands down the most attractive opening outside of SoCal. Thoughts?
