I don't believe anyone will find an article where Sands stated he is out to


defund football. However, there have been 1 or 2 articles where he is on record as saying (paraphrasing) that he doesn't think football is (rev sports in general) are any more important than other sports (non revs). If it is not explicitly there, you have to draw a line. But what you are asking for likely doesn't exist, a point I'm sure OHF would readily admit.
I don't agree because I want to believe it. It is because I have done my own research and talked to the people I know local to Blacksburg who have indicated to me this could be the case. Yes I know there are people "in the know" who say otherwise but those same people said Fu was gone until the last minute.
Explicit statements are not required in courts of law, I guess they are on TSL. It was enough for me because it confirmed what I already believed.
