He cited the coach's devotion as an indication of their interest and a signal of their loyalty if he came to Blacksburg. He also wondered about the future of then-North Carolina coach John Bunting, who spent his last few seasons in Chapel Hill under scrutiny. Virgil's instincts were correct. (Washington Post)
