So we are getting someone better than him at the 5 or Hansberry playing the

5 and we are getting a solid 4. I was under the impression with Lawal graduating Hansberry would move full time to the 4 with Gurdak at 5 with a full off season of conditioning

Gurdak to Rutgers only makes VT look poor on NIL if he is going to be 6th

Amusing to me that guys were desperate to keep Gurdak.
Snape • 04/19/26 11:57 AM ET
"Guys"? Certain folks, yes. A couple have a more nuanced take on players
ancient alien 2018 • 04/19/26 06:01 PM ET
To be clear...im in the camp that Gurdak was the 2nd priority on my list
GCHokie34 • 04/19/26 04:35 PM ET
He wasn’t second on my list but I agree with your sentiment.
NC Hoke • 04/19/26 06:02 PM ET
Gurdak will probably be on 4 different teams in 4 years **
OrlandoHokie • 04/18/26 08:33 PM ET
I genuinely do not see him as that type...
GCHokie34 • 04/19/26 04:37 PM ET
And then ask for a 5th!!**

^^I tried that at the Golden Corral steak station.
KCHokie2 • 04/19/26 06:18 AM ET
I think idealistically we would have been recruiting a starting 5
NC Hoke • 04/18/26 02:55 PM ET
Gurdak was clearly a distant #4 return priority - if that.
marcbvtgm • 04/22/26 09:19 AM ET
For next season, the loss of depth at the 5 position where replacements
NC Hoke • 04/22/26 01:06 PM ET
He's probably going to be a starter there. Wouldn't have been that here.**
David CunninghamAdmin • 04/18/26 01:33 PM ET
So we are going to get a big that’s better than gurdak
AnotherTechW • 04/19/26 06:45 AM ET
Probably depends on how you define "better"

HokieBrazil • 04/18/26 02:51 PM ET
Hansberry isn't going to be our 5.
EDGEMAN • 04/18/26 05:14 PM ET
Huh?Gurdak would have been a starter with Hansberry moving to the 4**
HokieBrazil • 04/18/26 06:11 AM ET
Only if he gains an outside shot and 4 or 5 inches in his vertical.**
jrc3rd • 04/18/26 05:34 PM ET
And can suddenly move faster than a glacier outside the charge arc**
marcbvtgm • 04/19/26 05:29 PM ET
4 or 5. That would be 4.5 or 5.5 vertical inches. too low**
Windows NT • 04/18/26 08:53 PM ET
So just like Poteat then**
HokieBrazil • 04/18/26 07:05 PM ET
He’s way better than poteat. Like ALOT better and at younger age **
AnotherTechW • 04/19/26 09:18 AM ET
Agree,was making a point that Poteat was a starter and didn't have an
HokieBrazil • 04/19/26 10:54 AM ET
I certainly wanted him to stay and he obviously was well coached in high
jrc3rd • 04/19/26 01:21 PM ET
Agree, G at the 5, Hans at the 4. GURDAK is a BIG Loss and big + for Rut!**
George Baylor • 04/18/26 04:16 PM ET
Maybe Maybe not. May want to wait until 26-27 to see if that happens**
ancient alien 2018 • 04/18/26 07:30 PM ET
What??????????? Huh????????????????? good grief**
ancient alien 2018 • 04/18/26 04:44 AM ET
