    Such a brutal piece, but everything here rings true from what I know. We wasted decades of success not building up a fundraising base and making penny wise, pound foolish decisions. Meanwhile our AD had no idea how far behind we were because he’s never been a part of a successful P5 program. Hopefully Pry can turn things around, but there may be too much of a revenue gap between us and the P2 and too much dysfunction in the athletic department to play catch up.

      There’s no reason you couldn’t. Biggest “football” school in a southern state, and with T-Shirt appeal that UVa doesn’t really have. Definition of sleeping giant; just have to wake up before the train leaves the station.
