Transfers…I was over it before he declared portal as it was obvious to me he was leaving. Mike did him a solid allowing 100% benefits and team support while he was gone and when he returned and didn’t participate.

Maddox news - CC still penning an article? There may be some missing ….
BeachGobbler • 03/25/23 09:06 AM ET
Hadn’t he already checked out?**

Thank you DM
Hokie Dog`s Dad • 03/25/23 02:01 PM ET
I would be surprised if he didn’t go somewhere closer to his family…
ombandit • 03/25/23 01:46 PM ET
Not surprised. I felt like he lost his starting spot
WildTurkE • 03/25/23 12:23 PM ET
I agree
crazylane • 03/25/23 07:42 PM ET
DM could help the team by staying
Vippie1 • 03/25/23 02:20 PM ET
Ding-ding. Didn’t mean to imply family thing was not legit, but
BeachGobbler • 03/25/23 01:46 PM ET
Yup**

We can just as easily get a player that some other school developed. I

Miami and Kansas State are loaded with transfers.
Old Line Hokie • 03/25/23 01:04 PM ET
With CMY's system, we can't afford to be a prep school**
WildTurkE • 03/25/23 12:13 PM ET
I don't see that happening. Besides, every team loses players to the

I still contend the NCAA was never empowered to deal with something like
VTCALS72 • 03/25/23 11:16 AM ET
NCAA must have presumed it'd be players endorsing lemonade stands **
TomTurkey • 03/25/23 11:26 AM ET
Didn't matter what they "presumed" IMHO they were powerless
VTCALS72 • 03/25/23 11:29 AM ET
Like to be a fly on the wall for those discussions
TomTurkey • 03/25/23 11:40 AM ET
If we had wanted
st_andrew • 03/25/23 10:00 AM ET
We've lost 1.5 players to the portal that actually hurt us over past few.
Vippie1 • 03/25/23 02:35 PM ET
I hear you, it is one sided
Vippie1 • 03/25/23 09:57 AM ET
Just opening another can of worms **
VaTechHokiesACC • 03/25/23 01:17 PM ET
Why the school? The money is (supposedly NIL and separate
VTCALS72 • 03/25/23 11:19 AM ET
I’d rather see common sense used. Sitting out a year was appropriate
NC Hoke • 03/25/23 11:00 AM ET
I hate it but the money to the players is the driving force
VTCALS72 • 03/25/23 11:23 AM ET
It’s both the money and the transfer rule. The NCAA controls the transfer
NC Hoke • 03/25/23 01:03 PM ET
To me that question is just like, "why didn't the NCAA really penalize UNC?
VTCALS72 • 03/25/23 01:12 PM ET
Ridiculous! Didn’t NCAA claim they had no jurisdiction?
BeachGobbler • 03/25/23 01:41 PM ET
Not sure how they dressed it.**
VTCALS72 • 03/25/23 01:43 PM ET
Probably right about that.
NC Hoke • 03/25/23 01:20 PM ET
yeah i'd like that too
Vippie1 • 03/25/23 11:01 AM ET
Agree and disagree.
NC Hoke • 03/25/23 11:13 AM ET
The family situation was legit.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 03/25/23 09:40 AM ET
Not disagreeing about family situation. However, reason to transfer?

Every kid I coached Mom documented as him being the best and “cute”

VintonHokies • 03/25/23 12:57 PM ET
I can see that....

If you’ve ever coached.
JackDSML • 03/25/23 02:18 PM ET
Maybe one day.....

Hey now. He's gotten some Likes, and is almost up to 0! 😉**
No_Limit_Hokie • 03/25/23 04:52 PM ET
True story. I was head coach varsity boys team
1980VT • 03/25/23 04:15 PM ET
I have no doubt.....
2hhoop3 • 03/25/23 04:27 PM ET
So you agree with me but I don’t have enough “like” you’re a chick. Sorry**
JackDSML • 03/25/23 06:10 PM ET
No.......
2hhoop3 • 03/25/23 06:28 PM ET
Geeze rage much? That’s a big assumption. Good luck with that deep analysis**
JackDSML • 03/25/23 02:34 PM ET
Nope .....
2hhoop3 • 03/25/23 02:37 PM ET
Reading between the lines but I believe the Buchanan situation was mutual
millmtnhokie • 03/25/23 09:24 AM ET
The NCAA didn’t have any say on NIL, but
NC Hoke • 03/25/23 09:22 AM ET
So schools make millions but you blame players who seek more playing time?
HokieAl • 03/25/23 09:21 AM ET
Yes and no. In a standard business context they do not.
Nelsonia Hokie • 03/25/23 12:20 PM ET
Does VT really "make millions?"**
VTCALS72 • 03/25/23 11:24 AM ET
Ever been on a major campus and not seen cranes? Construction?**
JackDSML • 03/25/23 02:24 PM ET
Yes**
GCHokie34 • 03/25/23 11:36 AM ET
In net profit or revenue?**
HokieBrazil • 03/25/23 12:45 PM ET
If they so chose, they could absolutely profit millions...
GCHokie34 • 03/25/23 04:46 PM ET
If we are talking basketball only then not convinced of that. Football
Nelsonia Hokie • 03/25/23 05:17 PM ET
Talking athletic depth as a whole...
GCHokie34 • 03/25/23 05:20 PM ET
Not sure of that it really costed out. And if you take out scholarship
Nelsonia Hokie • 03/25/23 05:33 PM ET
Don't know what to tell you...they make bank**
GCHokie34 • 03/25/23 05:57 PM ET
What are the numbers?**
Nelsonia Hokie • 03/25/23 09:22 PM ET
Great question

VT757to276 • 03/25/23 10:44 AM ET
Not sure why where the money comes from matters.**
Femoyer Hokie • 03/25/23 12:27 PM ET
By the way how are these millions spent?
Vippie1 • 03/25/23 09:53 AM ET
We aren't Florida, where the state buys football stadiums
EDGEMAN • 03/25/23 10:41 AM ET
yep
Vippie1 • 03/25/23 10:50 AM ET
Who said anything about players being exploited? Not me
HokieAl • 03/25/23 01:12 PM ET
Fair nuff
Vippie1 • 03/25/23 01:51 PM ET
But there is no comparative between the players and the schools and coaches
