Storm finally was a decent ACC player by the very end of his career.

One big reason that the ACC Championship team closed the season so strong was that Storm finally figured out how to play in the ACC. I wish I had the time to look up his numbers, but I remember a guy who just "got better" there at the end. His performance was justifiably overshadowed by the things that Cattoor, Mutts, Aluma, and even Pedulla were doing, but Storm came on strong at the end.

Are you thinking of
ftsumterhokie • 01/02/26 09:17 PM ET
It’s really fun having a quick guard
Squatro • 01/02/26 06:19 PM ET
Reggie Stepp and Al Young come to mind**
WV Gobbler • 01/02/26 06:15 PM ET
Based on watching......
2hhoop3 • 01/02/26 02:25 PM ET
Thorns and Rankin were pretty quick**
soflahokie • 01/02/26 02:01 PM ET
Wasn't Brian Chase pretty fast?**
HokieBrazil • 01/02/26 10:03 AM ET
Actually he wasn't.
hokietom87 • 01/02/26 01:10 PM ET
Al Young**
NorthBeachHokie • 01/01/26 11:59 PM ET
Al Young was FAST, not as "quick" as Hammond.
SmithfieldHokie • 01/02/26 04:21 PM ET
I think Al was drafted by the NY Giants or am I dreaming that?**
WV Gobbler • 01/02/26 06:20 PM ET
yes, he was...remember seeing that. He was super athletic.**
SmithfieldHokie • 01/03/26 10:25 PM ET
Believe that’s correct.
RJHokie • 01/02/26 06:26 PM ET
Al Young was amazing. He brought the ball up court as a complete sprint**
PFHokie • 01/02/26 12:09 PM ET
Hank Thorns...he just wasnt as skilled as Hammond**

You’re giving me PTSD with that pull…**

J Robinson **
Foxhall Hokie • 01/01/26 11:42 PM ET
I think J Rob is a good comparison. Hammond, Amani, Gurdak, & Johnson
goodbadugly • 01/02/26 10:16 AM ET
Much stronger too. Ben still young.
40ozDistrict • 01/02/26 01:19 AM ET
Robinson was quick.. but reminds me of Allen in the paint

Will StewartAdmin • 01/03/26 10:39 AM ET
Yeah I was being sarcastic.
GreenvilleVT • 01/03/26 11:26 AM ET
That wasnt the question**
BleedinOandM • 01/02/26 08:08 AM ET
Some sharp-eyed observers said it years ago.
