Do not disagree...
Which was the point of my reference on the debate as to who initiated contact. A review of pending projects at UVA at that time will reveal a significant amount of money coming to UVA from people on and or connected to both schools. Casteen was pragmatic and a good fundraiser and the two major benefits of letting Warner take the spotlight were gaining favor in Richmond and more importantly providing Casteen plausible cover with other UVA donors/alums who were not as pragmatic or supportive of the VT bid. There are a lot of behind the scenes back and forth that will hopefully one day make a good read as opposed to just entertaining cocktail conversation.
