Nahiem Alleyne...
Arch72Hokie • 02/22/24 09:34 AM ET
He has a ring, and we're doubting him? Maybe he wanted a chance at a title?
reece4vt • 02/23/24 11:01 AM ET
uhh...this is kind of a sad, and a 'lil depressing thread.**
hokienole • 02/23/24 01:50 AM ET
He took a chance in trying to move up and simply "failed". That is his
FLKEYSHOKIE • 02/22/24 06:45 PM ET
Alleyne has not failed**
GCHokie34 • 02/23/24 09:54 AM ET
Alleyne has had the most interesting career of any VT player ever..
soflahokie • 02/23/24 09:02 AM ET
"Poor decision"? LOL He has a NC ring. **
ancient alien 2018 • 02/22/24 08:31 PM ET
He made a poor decision moving on from UConn …OR it wasn’t his decision
hokiepro • 02/23/24 08:29 AM ET
Misunderstood your post. Sorry, and I agree.**
ancient alien 2018 • 02/23/24 04:34 PM ET
i'm guessing he was told to move on i'd have to think. Cause why leave**
VT Pez4Life • 02/23/24 09:18 AM ET
He was a rotation player for a National Title team.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/22/24 07:22 PM ET
What a run he's had, ACC Championship in dramatic fashion, then a Natty

The college version of Robert Horry if you will?**

Big Shot Bob**
millmtnhokie • 02/22/24 05:57 PM ET
My buddy, a UCONN fan, said that the coaching staff pushed him out.
Foxhall Hokie • 02/22/24 12:39 PM ET
Naheim Alleyne faced the same issues as MJ Collins
VT ChemE 1986 • 02/22/24 10:32 AM ET
Collins’ last defensive game vs UVA was better than any defensive game I
hokiepro • 02/23/24 08:39 AM ET
Recency bias here. Alleyne had plenty of high quality D games.
marcbvtgm • 02/23/24 01:52 PM ET
I sorta see the similarity, but when did Collins' shooting "come"?
marcbvtgm • 02/22/24 01:30 PM ET
Collins has been shooting well the past couple weeks.`
VictoryTurkey • 02/22/24 06:53 PM ET
He has? He's shot >33% in 3 of last 12 games. Above 20% in 1 of past 5
marcbvtgm • 02/23/24 01:57 PM ET
In his last 5 games going back to the beginning of February, he's shooting
Nortazhokie • 02/22/24 07:11 PM ET
Let's hear your expert opinion on his defense, assists and TO's as well. As
ancient alien 2018 • 02/22/24 08:35 PM ET
No, he was simply addressing someone's wishful narrative with facts.**
marcbvtgm • 02/23/24 01:58 PM ET
WTH are you blabbing about? I was just responding with FACTS about his
Nortazhokie • 02/22/24 08:38 PM ET
He was a 38.7% three-point shooter at Tech.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/22/24 10:39 AM ET
Nahiem was a glove on defense
tallahasseehokie • 02/22/24 04:23 PM ET
The biggest "knock" on Alleyne for me
Vippie1 • 02/22/24 01:59 PM ET
Had Alleyne stayed we would have been an NCAA team last year and this year
VT One • 02/22/24 01:08 PM ET
He's certainly someone who is more valuable in MYs system than elsewhere**
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 01:39 PM ET
VT is an NCAA tourney team this year and last year if Alleyne had stayed
vtbball80 • 02/22/24 10:46 AM ET
I don't disagree with your numbers, but my point of emphasis was different
VT ChemE 1986 • 02/22/24 10:44 AM ET
I'm not sure if I would say that about Collins.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/22/24 10:55 AM ET
I maybe do this at some point but seems to me that Collins has a decent %
nkhooch • 02/24/24 12:29 AM ET
Collins just needs a quick Physics lesson
Jwunderdog • 02/23/24 03:16 PM ET
Yep. Our opponents are generally pleased when the ball is in MJ's hands.
MidloHokie • 02/22/24 09:32 PM ET
For some reason CMY is giving him the green light
VT ChemE 1986 • 02/22/24 10:58 AM ET
I think MJ's free throw totals of 25-of-27 (92.6%) are a crazy stat.
Will StewartAdmin • 02/22/24 12:17 PM ET
I was told he is very good, and "lights it up" in practices.**
804Hokie • 02/22/24 12:43 PM ET
Maybe he's a sharpshooter with nobody guarding him? He may win every game
Nortazhokie • 02/22/24 12:37 PM ET
From that standpoint, he is very similar to Alleyne.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/22/24 12:31 PM ET
Yeah, I've heard he's better in practice than he has been during games.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/22/24 11:31 AM ET
We’ve seen glimpses vs UL, Duke, UNC of what I’ve heard about him doing in
hokiepro • 02/23/24 08:36 AM ET
Well he does see MJ in practice every day
HokieAl • 02/22/24 11:03 AM ET
Hard to fault a guy that is ACC and National Champ
WildTurkE • 02/22/24 10:30 AM ET
He was getting the Pedulla treatment in some ways behind the scenes.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/22/24 10:04 AM ET
What’s the Pedulla treatment?**
Pride_and_Joy • 02/22/24 10:20 AM ET
Abuse from fans via social media and DMs when he has a "bad" game.
Will StewartAdmin • 02/22/24 10:54 AM ET
What is a DM?**
mghokie • 02/23/24 01:58 PM ET
Direct Message.**
Will StewartAdmin • 02/23/24 02:10 PM ET
Thanks! I would never have guessed that one!**
mghokie • 02/23/24 02:14 PM ET
Legalized gambling => likely causing trouble in college sports.**
seacain • 02/22/24 10:30 PM ET
Wow disgusting and sick***
sacramento hokie • 02/22/24 09:27 PM ET
That is just sad and poor. **
GBOHokie • 02/22/24 08:33 PM ET
Yup...and people are gonna be pissed
tylerhokie • 02/22/24 06:21 PM ET
I’ve been complaining about how we on this board treat certain players
VPI63 • 02/22/24 01:11 PM ET
Just to be clear, this board is not harsh at all
Pride_and_Joy • 02/22/24 06:49 PM ET
This board is a cakewalk compared to social media at large.**
NokieHokie • 02/22/24 03:00 PM ET
I doubt our board is any worse than other school’s message boards.
NC Hoke • 02/22/24 01:48 PM ET
So if the other boards jumped off a bridge....would you? ;-)
vthokieq • 02/22/24 04:30 PM ET
We’re no better than any other fan base.
Pride_and_Joy • 02/23/24 08:29 AM ET
Irrelevant to my post.
vthokieq • 02/23/24 08:32 AM ET
Of course we should all try to be better.
Pride_and_Joy • 02/23/24 08:40 AM ET
Oy vey! 🤦‍♂️**
vthokieq • 02/23/24 08:43 AM ET
People are crazy. **
Pride_and_Joy • 02/22/24 11:29 AM ET
You'd love to see these nutcases kicked out of school and
WildTurkE • 02/22/24 11:55 AM ET
It could very well be trolls that have no link to the school.
NC Hoke • 02/22/24 01:45 PM ET
Much more likely it is people with a betting interest...
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 03:02 PM ET
That's exactly what I was thinking.
MP4VT2004 • 02/22/24 07:05 PM ET
It's definitely this
Zanderhokie • 02/23/24 09:51 AM ET
A lot of people sending hate aren’t even fans. They’re people who bet on
jfrance41 • 02/22/24 12:10 PM ET
People that bet significant money on college bball are financial idiots....
vtbball80 • 02/22/24 06:01 PM ET
If that's the case, the issue would be every transfer school and not just
6thStreetHokie • 02/22/24 01:23 PM ET
Sorry for the late response but VT “fans” have been giving him crap
jfrance41 • 02/22/24 08:41 PM ET
Just bet the over on turnovers. (ducks)**
Pride_and_Joy • 02/23/24 12:10 PM ET
^^^^ THIS ^^^^**
Windows NT • 02/22/24 01:16 PM ET
Ridiculous!
NokieHokie • 02/22/24 10:55 AM ET
Also saw that Maddox is coming off the bench at GM. He was 0-7 last night
millmtnhokie • 02/22/24 09:41 AM ET
He's been injured, I think.**
marcbvtgm • 02/22/24 01:34 PM ET
I assumed he was. Thanks **
millmtnhokie • 02/22/24 02:03 PM ET
Maddox has started all 22 games for GMU**
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 10:01 AM ET
He did not start last night**
millmtnhokie • 02/22/24 10:10 AM ET
He also didnt play against GWU and Davidson. So maybe injury
HokieRat • 02/22/24 11:06 AM ET
He's didn't start last night.**
YBYSAIAHokie • 02/22/24 10:09 AM ET
Then it would be the first game he hasn't started all season
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 10:14 AM ET
19 minutes off the bench last night.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/22/24 10:19 AM ET
He was coming back from injury. He’s been a key player for them**
jfrance41 • 02/22/24 11:14 AM ET
He had been playing/scoring really well last 5-6 games.
millmtnhokie • 02/22/24 10:31 AM ET

GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 09:59 AM ET
Always looking for greener pastures...
HokieJack • 02/22/24 09:41 AM ET
If the new school fans aren't saying they're going to murder him...
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 11:08 AM ET
That can't be more than 1 or 2 fans that said that and isn't indicative of
YBYSAIAHokie • 02/22/24 12:21 PM ET
Not sure what the argument here is...
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 12:40 PM ET
Wouldn’t same thing happen other places? This isnt VT specific issue **
AnotherTechW • 02/22/24 03:53 PM ET
In theory it could...
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 04:18 PM ET
How do we even know they aren’t our rivals fans? Fake accounts are common.**
Stech • 02/22/24 04:40 PM ET
This is exhausting...
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 04:46 PM ET
I believe they got them 100%, but I have an extensive marketing background,
Stech • 02/22/24 05:09 PM ET
Eh I disagree that it’s a matter of “training”. College athletes shouldn’t
AbsolutVT03 • 02/22/24 10:28 PM ET
I wish they didn’t have to deal with it too, but it’s happening everywhere.
Stech • 02/23/24 09:04 AM ET
Exhaustion not meant for you specifically and I appreciate it
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 05:16 PM ET
Spot on, we do have some 🥜 in the Hokie Nation, like all fan bases. I
Stech • 02/22/24 07:46 PM ET
I don't have any VT-specific contacts that could make that call
GCHokie34 • 02/22/24 09:49 PM ET
Good Lord, did we really have 'fans' that did that? Pathetic. **
