and will be much better then he possibly would have been with another year at VT. Neo will benefit more from a different tone of coaching (i.e. tougher love, more accountability) and a stronger cast that will allow him to play more to his strengths and not to be a gameplan focus of the opposition.

He will be better cause he'll have a full offseason to prepare for college -- VermontDDS Mar 28, 2026 at 07:13 PM ET

VermontDDS • 03/28/26 07:13 PM ET

how could you possibly speak to the coaching that he was getting at VT. -- bjw810 Mar 28, 2026 at 11:19 AM ET

So why is he in the portal?** -- Vippie1 Mar 28, 2026 at 12:30 PM ET

Vippie1 • 03/28/26 12:30 PM ET

Because it is a useful tool in negotiating with teams who might draft him.. -- GCHokie34 Mar 28, 2026 at 07:19 PM ET
