football hire will dominate as he puts together his staff and goes through the early signing period. Then attention will switch to basketball. Not a lot of appealing games during this time anyway. Those of us who really enjoy basketball can enjoy the ride and let everyone else catch up around the holidays. A coaching change in football doesn't happen often in Blacksburg, so it is big news. It deserves the attention. Coach Young and the basketball will get their attention, it is going to be a strong year, and excitement over a new start with football just might add to the excitement of having a great basketball team. Hopefully, Hokies will be feeling great about the future of
VT athletics over the next few months. There is plenty of reason for excitement to share.
