    Bizarre. Terrible timing - if they wanted him gone they should've done it right after the season ended. Also bad form not telling him until this afternoon, *after* the press conference had been scheduled. Good luck finding a candidate to step into THAT mess.

    Since the season ended, VT has had three assistant coaching vacancies open up. I think they figured that this was the right time to make the change at the top. Additionally, Weaver (AD) doesn't have much time left (Parkinson's) and probably wants to leave a legacy with a basketball hire (though most VT fans would prefer that he never touch anything having to do with basketball again).

    Makes sense. Let a new guy come in and bring his own staff. Next season is a total loss though.

    No,no,no. Nothing like schlepping - unless your talking about lox and a bagel with a schmear of cream cheese.

    Slepping is more like a Shemp quiver before the actual SLEEPING with the fishes.

    Update on ACC coaching tenures

    I know it's K, Hamilton, Williams, then who's next now?

    I, too, wouldn't mind Seth on College GameDay. Gotta get some dome-shiner for the bright lights.

    Why did this happen?

    You can make a case for firing Seth, I guess, if VaTech has high aspirations. But why would you do it now?

    The killer B's (all of whom are entering their third year as coaches in the league) are next.

    Brownell
    Bennett
    Bzdelik

    Then it's the 5 rising sophs...

    Donogue
    Gregory
    Turgeon
    Larranaga
    Gottfried
    Just be you. You is enough. - K, 4/5/10, 0:13.8 to play, 60-59 Duke.

    You're all jealous hypocrites. - Titus on Laettner

    You see those guys? Animals. They're animals. - SIU Coach Chris Lowery, on Duke

    Well, gee, now that Seth's gone, who's going to get the title of ugliest coach in the conference?

    Bennett will be entering year 4. Donahue will be entering year 3.

    That's what happens when you don't look things up to confirm - thanks.

    Good News VaTech players:

    You now have 4 coaching vacancies (1 HC, 3 assistants) on your team!

    I suspect there will be a lot of transfers.

    I had the same reaction, but someone mentioned earlier in this thread that all three assistant coaches had left since the end of the season. That may have been the final straw.

    Glad to see him gone - complained about tourney picks and officiating constantly. Recall he claimed to be afraid as he walked out of Cameron when he was tossed. VPI can do better!

    I'm hearing that Virginia Tech wants Shaka badly. Stay tuned...

    Sylvia Hatchell retired that title a long time ago.

    Shaka's AD is leaving for Minnesota, so keep an eye out. He might be willing to leave now.
