That was incredibly fun to watch (still is), but have to keep in mind

That team...which was actually capable of winning the ACCT through UNC / Duke back-to-back...was not going to get into the NCAAT due to a Jan / early-Feb slump and injury. They then got waxed in NCAAT rnd 1. All that seems like important context to along with the, "but won the ACCT". Slumps (or late let downs) seem to be a part of VT teams the past few years. I'm not sure that's a player issue. Really like CMY, and I think most do, and would love to see him succeed!

When we won the ACC tournament in 2022
Squatro • 03/11/26 02:02 PM ET
I think Mike Young got lucky in 2022
ScottsdaleHokie • 03/11/26 09:55 PM ET
Mike and Tech got lucky that year. league was way down, even Duke
lazarus1 • 03/11/26 10:01 PM ET
Yeah, he checked out to the Final 4. So did UNC. Down year? **
Jethro Tull • 03/12/26 07:36 AM ET
one (1) team**
lazarus1 • 03/12/26 11:43 AM ET
Nope. UNC beat Duke 81-77 in one semifinal
Jethro Tull • 03/12/26 01:21 PM ET
well, for much of the rest of the league (obviously not incl Va. Tech) it
lazarus1 • 03/12/26 03:42 PM ET
A matter of opinion
Jethro Tull • 03/12/26 04:35 PM ET
The 2021-2022 Hokies, unlike NC State two seasons after them...

Jethro Tull • 03/12/26 06:41 PM ET
How many teams have outperformed VT…
Squatro • 03/11/26 05:24 PM ET
There is quite a bit of dust on that trophy

Unfortunately once he ran out of transfers from his best Wofford team in 30
icelus • 03/11/26 02:35 PM ET
I'll always appreciate that championship, but
pfafftown hokie • 03/11/26 02:16 PM ET
ACC Tournament success has definitely been fleeting
sjwhokie • 03/11/26 02:40 PM ET
Yep. That three by Maddox rims out, we're having a different conversation
Zanderhokie • 03/11/26 02:23 PM ET
I still think he's a good coach
Zanderhokie • 03/11/26 02:07 PM ET
Slow ball control system?
Jethro Tull • 03/12/26 03:23 PM ET
There's no doubt he's a good teaching coach
Gobbler Guru • 03/11/26 04:59 PM ET
He knows the game, but the sport is moving faster than he is catching up.**
marcbvtgm • 03/11/26 06:26 PM ET
Good coach, but not as good as his reputation, IMO. More to it than X & O'**
marcbvtgm • 03/11/26 02:20 PM ET
Like teaching the guards to
DAngelo828 • 03/11/26 02:49 PM ET
Or teach C to kick it out when the D collapses on them.
