Apples and oranges
The money to which you refer will not change whether VT is the A-10 or the Big-10 or the WAC. Silly, uninformed people do everything they can to tie academic and athletic affiliation together and there is no binding. You see them all the time, buzzing over this matter as though it is real, it isn't.
An athletic organization is going to be determined on the aspect of an institution that involve athletics. Some really powerful athletic universities have so-so academics and of course some powerful academic institutions have so-so athletics - see the entire Ivy League.
Tossing around a billion dollar trust is like saying you wear socks. So what? A billion dollars isn't all that these days and many institutions have deep pockets.
