Eddie Royal Lays Out Blueprint for Virginia Tech’s Next Coach

As Virginia Tech begins its post-Brent Pry search, Royal wants a leader players would “run through a wall for.” The Hokies legend told Jim Rome the hire must recruit Virginia well, have a “clear-cut plan,” and command locker room respect. “Xs and Os matter, but motivation and belief? That’s how you win,” Royal said. Philip Montgomery is currently the interim head coach.
