Brian White Takes Helm at Virginia Tech

Virginia Tech has tapped Brian White, a seasoned AD with stops at Florida Atlantic, Missouri, and Army, to lead its athletic department into a new era. Known for his strategic vision and financial acumen, White brings a legacy of growth and a family deeply rooted in college sports—his father once led Notre Dame and Duke, and his brother runs Tennessee’s program. With James Franklin now at the helm of football and a $200 million donor-funded initiative underway, White is poised to elevate all 22 sports while navigating the turbulent future of college athletics. His official start looms, and the Hokies are watching closely to see how he’ll turn ambition into action. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
