Thanks Dave! Fascinating times, I copied & pasted the last paragraph inside


for those that want to see it. To me at least, the amount of change is mind boggling.

"Virginia Tech Athletics announces plans to financially reward academic progress
Virginia Tech Athletics also announced on Thursday that it plans to make financial awards available to student-athletes as a result of the Supreme Court's decision last June in the Alston vs. NCAA case.

"We are pleased to be able to offer this financial incentive for our student-athletes to make the type of academic progress that will benefit them for years to come after graduation," Babcock said. "We are currently finalizing our criteria for this program and plan to roll out the details to student-athletes, their families and our coaching staffs this summer. We anticipate beginning this financial reward package beginning in Fall 2022. Thanks to the tremendous success of our Drive for 25 campaign and the generosity of our Hokie Club donors, we intend to be very competitive in this space to ensure Virginia Tech remains a very attractive destination for the nation's top student-athletes."
