Virginia Tech coaching search gets further complicated after another high-profile firing

When Virginia Tech fired Brent Pry in September, they were the second power conference school to move on from their coach after UCLA fired DaShaun Foster. Since that Sunday afternoon on Sept. 14 in Blacksburg, there have been several high-profile jobs that have opened up.

Penn State fired James Franklin two weeks ago, Florida fired Billy Napier last weekend, and on Sunday night, maybe the biggest job came open when LSU fired Brian Kelly one day after an embarrassing loss at home to No. 3 Texas A&M in Baton Rouge.
