Squatro

He can’t be stationary

He’s not big and he’s not quick. So if he moves slowly or stands still, he’s going to have trouble. He needs to always be moving and the more rapidly the better. So basically, he’s got to play with more effort than a bigger guy. Same is true of Pedulla. ** Edited by Squatro at 1/22/2024, 7:30:24 AM

What can Rechsteiner actually do to improve his handle?

Learn the college game with time. Time. Time. Time.**

Change his last name to "Roy."**

HokieRat • 01/22/24 10:09 AM ET
he will be fine in time
Vippie1 • 01/22/24 09:15 AM ET
He can’t be stationary ◄
Squatro • 01/22/24 07:28 AM ET
Agree see description of that below
hokiepro • 01/22/24 08:03 AM ET
Understanding change of pace and when to use it
hokiepro • 01/22/24 08:00 AM ET
Definitely needs to accelerate
Vippie1 • 01/22/24 09:36 AM ET
Yep, it’s all about creating separation before you cross over
Squatro • 01/22/24 08:30 AM ET
He’s plenty athletic, he still plays like a star high schooler
soflahokie • 01/22/24 08:43 AM ET
Yep. Good on ball defenders will pick the pocket of many HS kids the way
hokiepro • 01/22/24 09:27 AM ET
Yep I’m an old head at this point on the playground
soflahokie • 01/22/24 10:00 AM ET
Look around P5 basketball
Squatro • 01/22/24 08:51 AM ET
He’s not slow; he’s just not adjusted to not being quicker than all his
hokiepro • 01/22/24 09:23 AM ET
I have yet to see him look slow, he’s just a little hesitant
soflahokie • 01/22/24 09:06 AM ET
Pull a Steve Nash and dribble a tennis ball all over campus.**
KCHokie2 • 01/22/24 06:48 AM ET
Keep his body between the ball and the defender. He dribbles the ball..
KiloZulu • 01/21/24 11:13 PM ET
See above; between the legs is fine IF you use it as a change of direction
hokiepro • 01/22/24 08:04 AM ET
Practice **
Pride_and_Joy • 01/21/24 09:47 PM ET
Should have not been on floor woozy hard enough to avoid TOs in ACC as Fr.
vtox1 • 01/21/24 08:54 PM ET
I had no idea he was woozy. That explains a lot.**
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/21/24 09:01 PM ET
He had been poked in the eye in practice, reportedly felt woozy after going
HeisenBurg13 • 01/21/24 07:16 PM ET
Become a sophomore most likely**

I still remember how bad Danny Hurley looked running point as a true frosh **
BAMRising • 01/21/24 06:34 PM ET
Marshall Ashford was the Hokie version **
hokeeron1 • 01/21/24 07:12 PM ET
Needs to pick a direction and go by the defense not crossing over vs long
hokiepro • 01/21/24 05:58 PM ET
Agree, I think he has the best handle on the team
soflahokie • 01/22/24 08:49 AM ET
Perhaps his dad can teach him how to utilize a Frankensteiner on defenders.**
MP4VT2004 • 01/21/24 05:36 PM ET
I think that would be called as a flagrant 2. At least when we did it.
nvpbrown • 01/21/24 09:26 PM ET
😂 that move was crazy**
millmtnhokie • 01/21/24 07:22 PM ET
Definitely athletic**
WildTurkE • 01/21/24 08:10 PM ET
Rick Steiner’s head gear. lol. **
Pride_and_Joy • 01/21/24 09:50 PM ET
Posts like this make me wish for the old downvote coming back!!!**
ancient alien 2018 • 01/21/24 05:28 PM ET
His handle is fine, he just needs to be more physical and less flashy**
soflahokie • 01/21/24 04:15 PM ET
Not get poked in the eye? I'd start there.**
I love VT! • 01/21/24 04:15 PM ET
Not get put into a game feeling “woozy” **
