... because I just have a hard time believing that a very high-level prospect like that would ever come to VT. My jaded viewpoint is that it may *look* like he's coming at this moment, but someone with humungous NIL money will step in at the last minute and whisk him away. David and CC, who are also jaded and grounded in reality, feel that if Avdalas doesn't go to the NBA, he *will* come to Tech. He's looking to develop certain skills, he's sold that Mike Young and staff are best for that, he'll get oodles of playing time here in a good league, etc. Harumph. Sounds too good to be true to me. We shall see. Anyway, point being, guys that I trust are hearing the same thing your source said.
