The ACC scholly doesn't mean he belongs in the ACC...

Just means an ACC school took a chance on him to one day be an ACC-level player. I'm not saying he's a DII player, but he's not good. Maybe someday he will be, but even on Monday when he looked better than last year, he still did not look good. He's slow, he's not strong with the ball, he doesn't appear to ever be in the right position, etc.

IMO, Wessler is not ACC level or close to it. Div. II player at best.**
George Baylor • 11/06/24 08:33 AM ET
He can provide minutes here and there
VaTechHokiesACC • 11/07/24 12:36 AM ET
Hard disagree, he’s a serviceable backup 5 at this point
soflahokie • 11/06/24 04:22 PM ET
And here I thought he had an ACC scholarship.

How did he do in his 9 minutes? Most likely minutes of reserves go down as

That will depend on what happens with Ryan Jones. Last night

Awesome and insightful answer! Ty!**
stescham • 11/06/24 08:07 PM ET
I honestly don't even care if he's "good enough" to play vs ACC teams.

I'm expecting Wessler to look decent against Delaware St, SC Upstate,

Michigan will be the true first test, they have multiple skilled 7 footers**

EDGEMAN • 11/05/24 09:10 PM ET
True and he very well could appear to take a step back or two. However, I
VTHokie2000 • 11/05/24 05:50 PM ET
He did look much better. Props to his hard work. **
st_andrew • 11/05/24 04:31 PM ET
Is there a third 5 on the squad?
EDGEMAN • 11/05/24 03:26 PM ET
Jones is the third 5.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 11/05/24 03:48 PM ET
Who had more minutes at the 5; Lawal or Wessler?**
VTHokie2000 • 11/05/24 05:55 PM ET
Fairly even.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 11/05/24 06:22 PM ET
Guessing Jones just needs a bit of time to learn system, esp. hedge D.

Someone mentioned last night he's still getting in basketball shape. Yet

Once he is in basketball shape, then does that mean Wessler's minutes will

Haven't a clue. CC can probably answer that better than I ever can. He's

His footwork was greatly improved and he looked more muscular as well.**
