The one thing Radford contributed that I think was undervalued...

was his ability to drive the basketball and finish at the rim. He also had a toughness that I really appreciated. Johnson seems to have that same level of toughness. I'm optimistic that as his game continues to develop, he can bring that 'slasher' element to the offense to help create when we are getting toward the end of the shot clock.

Tyler Johnson - our new Tyrese Radford

He's head and shoulder as a frosh. Quicker, stronger and can actually hit

Johnson has a very high basketball IQ, something you can't teach. I wish

Johnson is better than Radford**
vtbball80 • 11/12/24 11:06 AM ET
As a freshman, Radford had an Offensive Rating of 125.9 while playing 64%

Bold statement after 2 games

My hope would be that Johnson evolves into

T Johnson is going to be better than A Hill. **
icelus • 11/12/24 01:06 PM ET
We will see but after 3 games I'm not bold enough
Vippie1 • 11/12/24 01:26 PM ET
After seeing him in his first three college BB games...

And hopefully has a better vehicle driving record 😁.**

Hammond is a very scrappy defender. Should have steal numbers we likely
VTKev80 • 11/12/24 10:30 AM ET
Steal % is 5.5% right now...

How will he handle being isolated and posted up down low?
1980VT • 11/12/24 02:22 PM ET
Not great, but most PGs are at a disadvantage there.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 11/12/24 02:25 PM ET
Hammond good 20+ feet from basket. Rechsteiner should be better down low
1980VT • 11/12/24 03:30 PM ET
I think TJ’s offensive ceiling is much higher than Redford and he is much

Johnson has already shown a slashing ability at least in my opinion
