losing Horne and Ojiako vs. losing Basile and Mutts

seems hardly like a comparison worth making...the similarities pretty much end at "big." Horne and Ojiako didn't even combine for 40 mpg in 19-20. Maybe they were the best big options we had, but the hole left by them doesn't compare to the one by Mutts and Basile...which is not to say it can't be filled pretty well by the new (and returning) guys. I sure hope it can.

Replacing Basile / Mutts points and rebounds

Five guys on this team could average double figure points

Would love to see Poteat make significant strides

Hopefully our wings aren't seemingly afraid to take 3s next season

Teams played us from the outside first last year on Cattoor and Maddox

Having a weak shooter on the wing

Collins was finding his range until he broke his nose...

This gets closer to the real answer...
GCHokie34 • 04/28/23 02:34 PM ET
We probably got 5 PPG from the 3 last season. **
YBYSAIAHokie • 04/28/23 04:15 PM ET
I like the recipe **
VaTechHokiesACC • 04/28/23 02:50 PM ET
Half of those 30 points may come from Cattoor and Rice. Kidd is a point

I am not that concerned about replacing the RB, I think Long and Beran will
vtox1 • 04/27/23 10:04 PM ET
Hopefully we don’t replace Mutt’s turnovers **
HokieHoopzThe2nd • 04/27/23 05:46 PM ET
You do realize that Mutts averaged more assists than Shawn Pedulla and had
HeisenBurg13 • 04/28/23 07:17 AM ET
Assists are passes that lead directly to a score, Pedulla's role ...
1980VT • 04/28/23 10:00 AM ET
Pedulla wasn’t all that great either. Agree to disagree.
HokieHoopzThe2nd • 04/28/23 09:08 AM ET
While true, the turnovers only tell part of the story. We were 10x better
goodbadugly • 04/28/23 10:17 AM ET
I'd expect Long/Beran to have fewer tpg than Mutts/Basile. Question is can

Last time VT lost their 2 main bigs...

True. Our front court players are going to do more of

5 spot. Can Beran average 10-12ppg? With 6-8ppg with Kidd & Poteat?**
1980VT • 04/27/23 02:41 PM ET
If he can’t then why did Mike recruit him?
tallahasseehokie • 04/28/23 04:43 PM ET
Yes.**
NC Hoke • 04/28/23 02:37 PM ET
I predict Kidd will average ~10ppg off the bench. His offense is
goodbadugly • 04/27/23 02:53 PM ET
10 would be great, but foul trouble will more than likely lower minutes
1980VT • 04/27/23 03:31 PM ET
Also, defense.
