Seriously at that point you aren't even making picks you are just writing
down the various combinations.

Because he hasn't been productive and other guys give us a better chance
I am not anti Neo and would definitely be open to him coming back but he has to change and develop not only his skill set, but his mental approach to the game. He is still young but he has to grow and adapt to how the game is played in the US. I just don't think Greek pro basketball is anywhere near as good as top college basketball and he wasn't prepared.
With that said I don't he comes back, but I can only assume his NBA stock has tanked for now.

Is it bad that I follow VT basketball pretty closely and look at
the failure list and I am like who the hell is that guy, don't remember him at all.

I assume they called him for driving the QB into the ground.
Not saying that was actually the case though.

Well schools are not supposed to approach players at other schools
until they enter the portal. We all know that it is happening. That is tampering. NIL is not supposed to be pay for play, it is supposed to be pay for making a commercial or merchandise, etc. But that is not what is happening either. So even in this world of college football there are rules, but they are being completely ignored and no one cares. So, if a player gets in trouble with the law why should anyone care. That was my point.

I mean "looks" in college football went out the window long ago.
The days of athletes being good students and role models has long been gone. With all the cheating and tampering happening in college football now who cares. It is the wild West.

The odds aren't in your favor. Even a center cut fastball
is very likely to result in pop up or ground out.

Yeah, that is the point
Have played and coached since I was 6....down 3 runs into the bottom of the last inning you need runners. You don't swing 3-1 unless it is a meatball.

Yeah, not sure it is much different. My 17 year old and most of his
friends lothe pictures. They don't so much hate the action photos but if they have to pose it is like you asked them to do hard labor. Looking around after baseball games, etc most of the guys are that way. Girls seem to love it.

Nobody wants that circus coming to their town. If he was a can't miss guy
teams would be willing to put up with the baggage and bs, but they obviously see him as a marginal QB, so the juice isn't worth the squeeze.

Not sure I would want them to portal.
Rech and Young have some upside and could be valuable, especially with Young's ability to score down the stretch. Hopefully they take another step forward next year. But that doesn't mean you don't bring in the pieces you need to compete.

Sorry, you aren't really making a good case.
Nothing you have pointed out points to Mike Young not being able to coach. Are there better guys out there maybe, but name 2 who would be realistic choices that would be a near guaranteed step up from Mike Young and fit what we can afford to pay.
I don't really care about coach speak in post game interviews. They are 10 minutes after a game where emotions are running high and when you lose you don't really want to be there to begin with. I have seen Mike Young take accountability plenty of times.
Don't take any of this as me being a MY homer. I am all for what is best for VT, I just don't think hitting the reset button is going to lift this program back to ACC top 5 without a significant investment in NIL.

You don't just forget how to coach
and literally the examples you point out from today are 100% tied to ability and thus NIL. The better players are more athletic and able to get open for an inbound pass and scoring the basketball is about ability. We lack both. MY can't will the ball in the basket with coaching. Is he Coach K, absolutely not, but those guys are few and far between.
If he starts to underachieve with some talent then maybe you have a point but right now that isn't the case. The game is different than 3 years ago. If he is unwilling or unable to adapt to the new NIL world I agree it is time to move on but there is no evidence of that yet. He is effectively the trying to compete against the Yankees with the Rays payroll.
Wofford making the tournament 5 years after Young left is about as relevant to the argument as the fact UNCW is in the tournament. Wofford is in because they won a conference that also has very little NIL money.

Young is operating with very little NIL money
In a world where that is an absolute must. We don't have the horses right now to compete at this point. Too inconsistent at guard and forwards/centers that aren't very athletic and not very good rebounders.

We don't have top notch players to compete. It takes money now
and we don't have very much of that right now in the basketball program.

Are you looking for the value in tab 1 column A to exist anywhere
In tab b column a? Or if tab 1 a1 = tab 2 a1? If the former you can use a vlookup. If the later MP4VT2004 has it I think.

It is predatory and completely unnecessary. Just a money grab by realtors
who likely do very little to earn the 15%.

At this point just remove the schools from it altogether
and just make them the Nashville Warriors for example. They don't have to go and play pretend school and I don't have to pretend I am actually watching amateur football where they give a crap about being part of the school.

Some people aren't happy unless they can complain about something
Was the offense great today, no but they did enough to win. Winning football games is hard.

Like it or not a forearm and shoulder to the head of a defenseless
receiver is a penalty today like it or not.

Did you watch the third quarter just a week ago
This game wasn't over...if GT would have scored you would questioning why Tuten wasn't in the game.
