Virginia Tech would be dumb as a box of rocks if they came to the SEC. They have been to a BCS game 4 times in 7 years. They would have been to maybe 1 in that time frame in the SEC. Sometimes you have to pass up more money for the good of your program and I think Virginia Tech is one school that would suffer greatly in the SEC imo.


a lot of people think that it is Beamer that is holding the team back. Virginia is a large state (3rd in size behind Texas and Florida) and that doesn't include Washington, DC where they have large presence. Virginia also has a lot of talent. Many VPI folks I've talked to credit Beamer with building the football foundation, but now they have the passionate fan base, they wouldn't mind having a more aggressive coach for recruiting to take the program to the next level.

I could see that. Their offense has been just painful to watch for most of the last decade. Hell if he would just bring in a new OC that would shake things up a bit that might get them over the hump.
