I don’t think they are that bad but doesn’t look like even a bubble team

It’s basically last years team without Mutts and Basilie and the upside of Rice. Long, Beran and Nickel are complementary pieces. We didn’t add enough in portal. Not nearly athletic enough.

You want comments? I got receipts!
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/16/23 12:24 PM ET
I think there are some folks who evaluate Mike’s teams
Femoyer Hokie • 11/16/23 09:52 AM ET
Don’t think he needs to be fired but expectations should be adjusted
st_andrew • 11/16/23 09:35 AM ET
His original staff was better, I think.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 11/16/23 09:59 AM ET
This is a surprising negative take from you, as you tend to be PATT**
GretnaHokie • 11/16/23 09:45 AM ET
And I love basketball. And Mike Young.
st_andrew • 11/16/23 09:54 AM ET
Very early to judge a team with several new parts meshing
hokiepro • 11/16/23 10:23 AM ET
The chicken littles are out after 3 games. Next? "Fire CMY" posts. **

You'd have to be a special kind of stupid...
GCHokie34 • 11/16/23 09:12 AM ET
Do you think that this is a good team? Or even "decent"? Allow me to define
hokiekev 2k4 • 11/16/23 11:19 AM ET
Mike Young has a month to figure it out and avoid a HUGE hole
Woody • 11/16/23 06:09 PM ET
Agreed. I fear that this team is worse than last year's January team...
hokiekev 2k4 • 11/17/23 08:47 AM ET
Need to win our home OOC games, go 2-1 or better in Orlando & we’re just
hokiepro • 11/16/23 05:17 PM ET
Yes...
GCHokie34 • 11/16/23 12:48 PM ET
Hokie Men's Basketball final KenPom rankings under Mike Young:
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/16/23 01:41 PM ET
It’s November yes. Then why give us so
st_andrew • 11/16/23 01:24 PM ET
Infinitely more value than an eye test from fans lacking context**
GCHokie34 • 11/16/23 01:26 PM ET
How so?**
st_andrew • 11/16/23 01:31 PM ET
Is that an actual question?
GCHokie34 • 11/16/23 01:35 PM ET
Yes. Sorry to question you.
st_andrew • 11/16/23 01:55 PM ET
The efficiency ratings are the best way to anchor context across NCAA
GCHokie34 • 11/16/23 02:13 PM ET
Yep. You’re right.
st_andrew • 11/16/23 02:46 PM ET
Haven't you figured it out yet?
hokiekev 2k4 • 11/17/23 08:44 AM ET
Yep, our experience on the matter is the exact same**
GCHokie34 • 11/17/23 06:35 PM ET
Chuckle...hard eye roll**
GCHokie34 • 11/16/23 02:59 PM ET
Good stuff as always, GC! Slight correction, however...
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/16/23 01:08 PM ET
VTs non-conf SOS was 351st out of 353 in 19-20...
GCHokie34 • 11/16/23 01:12 PM ET
And that SOS included Michigan State!**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/16/23 01:14 PM ET
And a win at that!
GCHokie34 • 11/16/23 01:16 PM ET
Anybody wanting a new coach is an idiot.
Walkin` Willie • 11/16/23 07:53 AM ET
No new coach! I am frustrated by two issues that seem to plague MY VT teams
vtox1 • 11/16/23 07:32 AM ET
Very similar to the C Moir era.
RiverVT • 11/16/23 08:39 AM ET
@GCHokie34 would be interested to hear your thoughts…are CMY’s

"Taking too long to gel"
VTCALS72 • 11/16/23 07:59 AM ET
I use that description when I just can't put my finger on why we aren't...
EDGEMAN • 11/16/23 08:53 AM ET
Yes
Woody • 11/16/23 07:08 AM ET
Uh yeah ok **
hokiepro • 11/16/23 07:34 AM ET
I don’t think they are that bad but doesn’t look like even a bubble team ◄
st_andrew • 11/16/23 09:31 AM ET
Beran is an upgrade defensively for Basile but not offensively
hokiepro • 11/16/23 09:54 AM ET
The delta between Basilies O and Berans
st_andrew • 11/16/23 09:57 AM ET
I think that Beran and Basile are roughiy a wash when you consider O and D.
win-tech • 11/16/23 02:20 PM ET
Just to put numbers on it
st_andrew • 11/16/23 07:21 PM ET
Question because I don't know the answer...
WuhBuh-DC_Hokie • 11/17/23 11:35 AM ET
Yes. 1morons1 is a complete and total idiot.**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/16/23 01:29 AM ET
This is a joke, right?**
VT ChemE 1986 • 11/16/23 12:37 AM ET
Nope. It's not a joke. I walk the internet halls a LOT and read.**
Snape • 11/16/23 02:36 AM ET
I wish. 😐**
