My first choice would be a successful G5 coach.


I would not take someone from the pros. College is way too different.

I would not take someone who has been a coordinator. Rather have a head coach who understands all the administrative and management responsibilities.

Good P5 coaches are probably too expensive and would eschew a lateral move. But there’s still plenty of them that I would think would be good in Blacksburg.

But my first choice would be a young up-and-coming G5 coach. Cheaper, likely more innovative, proven ability to turn the program around. just because the last one didn’t work out doesn’t mean anything. As you said, most new coaches fail. First choice would be a charismatic young African-American with local ties. Don’t know who fits that bill.
