I mentioned Loucks being an upgrade vs Hamilton

As far as in game adjustments and coaching. It’s one game but I think I had some good evidence from Saturday. CMY identified what they were doing but it was too late for us once they got hot too. Basically they used whatever switches we made until they got a matchup they wanted and played ISO with that matchup. They singled out their best offensive matchup vs us and it was Somerville (not a major contributor in scout…more a role guy at 8 ppg went for 23), Wiggins and Jones. They ended up having 3 major go to scorers

HokieBrazil • 02/16/26 09:43 AM ET
Like CC said

FSU was unconscious in the second half. They will never duplicate it again**
Archdale • 02/16/26 08:59 PM ET
But, did we make them look better than they really are?
Jethro Tull • 02/16/26 08:14 PM ET
Isn't that what the "we bad" part means?**
marcbvtgm • 02/17/26 02:59 PM ET
short and to the point
Windows NT • 02/16/26 04:41 PM ET
Does that mean FSU has a more talented roster than we do?**
YBYSAIAHokie • 02/16/26 06:13 PM ET
Yes**
Windows NT • 02/16/26 08:33 PM ET
Then we should've lost to them.**
YBYSAIAHokie • 02/17/26 12:15 PM ET
No. We have better coaches **
Windows NT • 02/17/26 12:44 PM ET
I mentioned Loucks being an upgrade vs Hamilton ◄
hokiepro • 02/16/26 11:23 AM ET
We played bad, and FSU played the best they are capable of playing.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 10:22 AM ET
Their coach said best game they‘be played **
RunHokieRun • 02/16/26 03:54 PM ET
FSU was 17-22 in the 2nd half. They played absolutely lights out**
hoosnowahokie • 02/16/26 03:39 PM ET
yep, basically basketball just happened
Vippie1 • 02/16/26 02:37 PM ET
One other note...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 12:26 PM ET
You are.....
2hhoop3 • 02/16/26 12:38 PM ET
I'm good with that.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 12:39 PM ET
We’re not good with the no birthdays thing
hokiepro • 02/16/26 04:46 PM ET
I'm not. You keep having those birthdays and anniveraries.**
VT66 • 02/16/26 12:58 PM ET
Anyone remember that 16 seed that knocked the Hoos out of the NCAAT?
EDGEMAN • 02/16/26 11:12 AM ET
Went to that game
jpking17 • 02/17/26 11:27 AM ET
I’ll remember UMBC for the rest of my life.
GreenvilleVT • 02/16/26 09:38 PM ET
If we win the championship next year we will forget many of the games**
JACHokies • 02/16/26 02:51 PM ET
Good re-call. They shot 68% in the second half.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 11:16 AM ET
some guy named Ryan Odom coached that16 seed team whatevr happened to him **
The Hokie Steve • 02/16/26 12:38 PM ET
It was like they could throw in a "behind the back" shot and it would go in**
EDGEMAN • 02/16/26 11:21 AM ET
Too soon**
Spudnut • 02/16/26 11:14 AM ET
How would rank our top 7 on playing D? I see so many wide open shots
Stech • 02/16/26 10:47 AM ET
Before Saturday's game..
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 11:07 AM ET
Wow great explanation of the problem, and what needs to change to improve.
Stech • 02/16/26 11:27 AM ET
You don’t think some of natural ability places people into high jump, etc.?
Hokies23 • 02/16/26 12:00 PM ET
“Jumping is about talent of course,” first thing I said about it.**
Stech • 02/16/26 12:16 PM ET
Mailing a game in with 10 minutes to go is really lame if true
AnotherTechW • 02/16/26 10:36 AM ET
I mailed it in as a fan, too.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 11:12 AM ET
I was out for lunch and coukd get my check fast enough
TheNuke • 02/16/26 11:37 PM ET
I missed the GM leaving. Was there news/annoucmemt on that? **
AnotherTechW • 02/16/26 04:41 PM ET
Nope.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 04:48 PM ET
Same here. Record the games and watch later if at all. **
40ozDistrict • 02/16/26 02:08 PM ET
Good post......
2hhoop3 • 02/16/26 11:45 AM ET
Wow - this post is the first I've heard of this GM issue.
nvpbrown • 02/16/26 11:42 AM ET
I think this feeds the narrative MY is stepping away
AnotherTechW • 02/16/26 04:50 PM ET
Yes. Happened back before Thanksgiving.
David CunninghamAdmin • 02/16/26 01:54 PM ET
I mentioned it a couple of months back on the board.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 11:47 AM ET
Is he in the same safehouse as the former softball pitching coach? lol**
VT_Consul • 02/16/26 12:39 PM ET
Haha, no, not the same situation.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/16/26 12:40 PM ET
Yeah we’re cooked
SC_Hokie • 02/16/26 12:33 PM ET
We were down 20**
hokiepro • 02/16/26 11:02 AM ET
If anyone should know a comeback is possible it should be VT.
millmtnhokie • 02/16/26 11:57 AM ET
Somerville and Jones took over the game**
