Just people catastrophizing

Lose too many games with an increased budget and and your head goes on a platter. Dont know why people cant wait for the season to play out.

Did anyone notice that Neo

Dribbled more aggressively/with greater speed toward the basket after the defenders first attempt at engagement with him? In other words it seemed like a concerted effort to drive the lane after beating the first guy. In the past, he seemed to be slow after repelling the defender. I am not a basketball strategist in any way but I did see a change with his ball handling. Anyone else see that?

I felt like AI could help answer why Neo would be drafted

So, I asked Copilot to list all Freshman guards with more than 90 assists and it came up with just: Freshmen With 90+ Assists (2025–26) Joel Foxwell — Portland - 152 assists - 6'1" guard Neoklis Avdalas — Virginia Tech - 93 assists - 6'9" guard So, no one comes close to his assist stats at his height at his age. ** Edited by LAHokieAlum at 1/22/2026, 1:15:46 PM

Coaches Game ball should go to Jackson

The conditioning of this team with 4 OT wins this year and this game is amazing. ** Edited by LAHokieAlum at 12/31/2025, 5:17:01 PM

I told it 98 is under 100 and it said

You're absolutely right — 98 points doesn't meet the threshold. Thanks for catching that. Based on the latest available records, Virginia Tech men's basketball has not scored 100 or more points in three consecutive games in its modern history. While they've had explosive individual games — especially against non-conference opponents — hitting triple digits three times in a row is extremely rare, even for high-powered offenses.

OMG - I asked Co-Pilot if we have ever scored 100 points 3 games in a row

and it responded with: Yes — Virginia Tech men's basketball recently scored over 100 points in three consecutive games during the 2025–26 season. Here’s the breakdown of that scoring streak: - Game 1: Virginia Tech defeated Charleston Southern 98–67 — just shy of 100 points. - Game 2: They beat Providence 107–101 in a high-scoring matchup. - Game 3: They followed up with another offensive burst against St. Joe’s, scoring over 100 points again. I think Co-Pilot has wishful thinking ** Edited by LAHokieAlum at 11/12/2025, 8:26:13 PM

Can't remember the last VT player who

Could create their own shot as often as Neo can. Looking like an NBA player to me.

Offensive play calling was too conservative

Or Drones audibled out too much. IIRC one slant, one wheel route, no screens, no pop pass, no TE down the middle... just seemed vanilla and slow. Maybe those plays were called and Drones checked out of them but bleh and meh and ugh.
