Suppose we see Bowen do great things at Ohio State? Would it be due to

Bowen being better than we realized or rather, because his is now riding in a yacht instead of a rowboat being paddled by a blind, idiot? I know that realignment and NIL has thrown a curve at everyone, but I think that if VT were being run properly, we should be able to get a notch above VCU in basketball. We should be able to to pirate the 6th or 7th man off the FSU or Pitt roster, who is usually more talented and athletic than our starters. What is true for VT is somewhat (sadly) true for other ACC teams. There is no reason the hoops should have been this bad this compared to the Big East. There is just a bunch of entitled weak ass management is our league and we are very high on the incompetence list. If VT can't raise more money than VCU or Creighton, I think is is just bad management. ** Edited by TDVick at 3/21/2025, 1:33:36 PM
