Short update on portal additions, team needs. Young obviously understands
BackInTheBurg • 04/10/23 08:59 AM ET
What is interesting is that our D wasn’t bad
HokieAl • 04/10/23 12:45 PM ET
Hear, hear. Been saying the O struggles were more the problem than D.
marcbvtgm • 04/10/23 03:44 PM ET
We were better on offense after Cattoor came back than before he went out
soflahokie • 04/10/23 04:07 PM ET
Disagree with almost all of this revisionist history.
marcbvtgm • 04/11/23 06:25 PM ET
Our D was WAY worse this year, offense was about the same
soflahokie • 04/10/23 01:07 PM ET
I'll bet the O efficiency #'s in 2nd half of the 2 seasons weren't the same**
marcbvtgm • 04/11/23 06:28 PM ET
Yep, that 10 game stretch to close the regular season in 21-22...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 04/10/23 04:54 PM ET
Exactly. Defense was horrible at times.
King of Hokies • 04/10/23 03:34 PM ET
The 2nd wing defender not knowing rotation didnt help
soflahokie • 04/10/23 07:40 PM ET
Meh. Even late in the year, Mike Young complained to the press about
King of Hokies • 04/10/23 08:32 PM ET
A lot of the defensive problems this past year where that except for Mutts
vtbball80 • 04/10/23 09:48 AM ET
Unfortunately we have defensive problems everywhere. Bigs not able to

Vippie1 • 04/10/23 01:56 PM ET
We didn’t pressure the ball nearly as well as we need to. **
st_andrew • 04/10/23 10:02 AM ET
I wasn’t/the article wasn’t (I don’t think) inferring that getting bigger
BackInTheBurg • 04/10/23 09:54 AM ET
Sorry, took your comment on "going to a big line up" as the solution**
vtbball80 • 04/10/23 09:59 AM ET
Yeah. Realized that so was clarifying. I do think having all the bigs out
BackInTheBurg • 04/10/23 10:03 AM ET
Good write, I think we need another 4 and maybe a PG who can compete with

B-Roc's coming.** ◄
LXNTN_HOKIE • 04/10/23 08:30 PM ET
I wonder how much Wessler will play. A 7'-1" center has to be intimidating.**
YBYSAIAHokie • 04/10/23 09:26 AM ET
Will he be intimidating when they draw him out to the perimeter to get
King of Hokies • 04/10/23 03:36 PM ET
Not saying he is Kyle Filipowski but the same is true of him. Its a game of
goodbadugly • 04/10/23 03:44 PM ET
Yes, if that big guy for NC State can play, then Wessler can play. It's
39hokies • 04/11/23 08:27 PM ET
Always remember - you are who you can guard and patience is a virtue**
vtbball80 • 04/10/23 07:41 PM ET
No, not definitely. There isn't one team in the ACC that Wessler will match
King of Hokies • 04/10/23 07:03 PM ET
and how many games have you seen him play?**
tallahasseehokie • 04/11/23 08:02 PM ET
You are a man of great wisdom and insight, my friend.**
YBYSAIAHokie • 04/10/23 04:12 PM ET
Very little to none**
GCHokie34 • 04/10/23 12:57 PM ET
While I agree with you, can you tell us why you think so? Just curious. **
DrMaroon • 04/10/23 02:42 PM ET
Big men develop a lot slower
GCHokie34 • 04/10/23 05:49 PM ET
Makes sense. Thanks.**
DrMaroon • 04/10/23 06:46 PM ET
I'm not GC, but...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 04/10/23 04:57 PM ET
Keve played 13 minutes per game as a freshman, will Wessler?
tallahasseehokie • 04/11/23 07:31 PM ET
Then again, Basile, who wasn’t even originally recruited by high majors
VT One • 04/10/23 08:56 PM ET
Correct, but even Basile didn't start for Wright State until his third year**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 04/11/23 10:11 AM ET
True but he did average about 15 minutes and 6.9 ppg as a sophomore. And he
VT One • 04/12/23 12:50 PM ET
The question at hand is not starting it's being part of a rotation

That makes me wonder if....
vtbball80 • 04/11/23 12:02 PM ET
I'm starting to view the recruiting of bigs like a view QB recruiting..
Chris ColemanAdmin • 04/11/23 12:10 PM ET
I think, with QBs, we know kids out of HS, have built relationships, when
804Hokie • 04/11/23 12:22 PM ET
I don't see a past relationship between Drones and Bowen.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 04/11/23 12:25 PM ET
He was very quick to the gun on Drones, visiting him the day after portal
804Hokie • 04/11/23 12:29 PM ET
These days the news travels fast.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 04/11/23 12:30 PM ET
IIRC he flew over there right away. Really wanted him for some reason... We
NokieHokie • 04/11/23 12:30 PM ET
The 5 high school recruits probably cost us nothing in NIL. “Big”
Femoyer Hokie • 04/11/23 11:38 AM ET
Interesting take - didn't think of that**
vtbball80 • 04/11/23 01:01 PM ET
That's correct.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 04/11/23 11:49 AM ET
You stayed at a Holiday Inn last night?**
vatechcowpatty • 04/10/23 06:24 PM ET
Interesting quotes from MY on Wessler.
Gobbler Guru • 04/10/23 09:46 AM ET
IDK, sounds like coachspeak for.....
vtbball80 • 04/10/23 09:55 AM ET
Yep. I wouldn’t put any weight on this statement - good or bad.**
marcbvtgm • 04/10/23 03:46 PM ET
Yeah, CMY didn't say he would contribute in the fall but he is making
IB4TECH • 04/10/23 02:01 PM ET
Agreed. I don't see him jumping Kidd or Poteat in the rotation.**
