And we still scored 84, pretty crazy. **

It’s said pretty much everyday on here but if offense is the problem…
SC_Hokie • 11/17/25 12:06 PM ET
I was much more worried about our inability to keep them off the offensive

That's why you play these "prep" games to get a feel for what you need to

I’m not sure if we were afraid enough of driving to the hoop

Big difference between Dorn and Mutts in the middle of a zone. They'll get

They doubled Neo on the pick and roll every time. It was always a big, so
vt88hokie • 11/17/25 10:26 AM ET
Pick with Bedford or Schutt and those double are deadly!**

Definitely coachable. That zone looked very weak and extended. A lot of...

Charlotte also missed some 3s at the right time**

So far on the season the only players shooting well are Schutt and Bedford
SC_Hokie • 11/17/25 12:10 PM ET
