The AD has a debilitating disease that will likely shorten his career. So in the near future VT must hire a new President and a new AD, likely before CFB retires. They will not think as the current Admin do. Folks inside the University community assert that the new President will come from the outside not the inside. All of this adds up to - what connections do the new President and AD have to the ACC? SEC? or other conferences for that matter??

Spokesperson Larry Hincker in his comments in the past year said what the current Admin feels about SEC membership. Steger and the current leadership have no interest in moving, but times and people do change.
Well I'm sure the BoV will play huge. But you are right in that we don't entirely know what a new administration will bring.

As for bringing someone in from the outside is concerned, it may be time to do that...just to make sure there aren't any inbreed problems.
