How would you compare Nickel to Camden?

Their style seems similar. I’d just expect Nickel becomes a much better player over time.

With Tyler Nickel transferring from UNC to VT is the main reason. Nickel is

Is Nickel a done deal? What are his defensive skills?**
Walkin` Willie • 03/22/23 09:57 AM ET
no, I think FLKEYSHOKIE is projecting/hoping, but it is by no means a done
Hokie Kev • 03/22/23 02:03 PM ET
Nickel would not be a Mutts replacement...
GCHokie34 • 03/21/23 10:20 PM ET
correct... Tyler is a 2/3 combo. **
whatIpostlike • 03/22/23 08:40 AM ET
He's still currently a 4...
GCHokie34 • 03/22/23 08:47 AM ET
pure 3 who can help at the 2. He will play major minutes and make it rain **
whatIpostlike • 03/22/23 04:05 PM ET
That’s fine, we won’t replace Mutts 1:1. It must be a composite
st_andrew • 03/22/23 09:47 AM ET
Correct, Nickel plays much more like a taller guard
hokierevisionist • 03/22/23 12:34 AM ET
But Mr. Buchannon you owe us for one year
BigDaddyHokie • 03/21/23 07:44 PM ET
You owe me for the time spent reading that post**
GCHokie34 • 03/22/23 12:32 PM ET
Why do you feel the need to make such an ignorant comment?
HeisenBurg13 • 03/22/23 07:27 AM ET
Well said. I wish the young man good success wherever he goes.**

Do redshirts practice with the team?
tallahasseehokie • 03/21/23 09:45 PM ET
of course they do... they don't just stand around wearing a red shirt **
whatIpostlike • 03/22/23 08:37 AM ET
So why no reports on how they are performing? Mikes security that tight?**
tallahasseehokie • 03/22/23 09:09 AM ET
not just CMY's... no one speaks of practice. rules and all **

Based ON 3, recent 100% projection !**
FLKEYSHOKIE • 03/21/23 06:42 PM ET
Key word there is "projection". Hope it actually happens.**
hokie77 • 03/21/23 08:31 PM ET
Agree, so do I.**
FLKEYSHOKIE • 03/21/23 08:34 PM ET
I think redshirting may have hurt his ego a bit.**

Idk why. Aren’t they all lottery picks? **

GCHokie34 • 03/21/23 05:24 PM ET

I think it's impossible to say right now.

IB4TECH • 03/21/23 05:49 PM ET
Best of luck to him, now we need to go and find a true 4
soflahokie • 03/21/23 04:25 PM ET
I wonder if this was his choice or if he was asked to move on?
GretnaHokie • 03/21/23 04:32 PM ET
Nickel could play the 4 here, but it’s not his natural spot
soflahokie • 03/21/23 05:10 PM ET
Nickel is in no way a 4**
hokierevisionist • 03/22/23 12:35 AM ET
Yes, I want Nickel as a primary 3 and secondary 4.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 03/21/23 05:43 PM ET
Can Nickel guard the 3?**
YBYSAIAHokie • 03/21/23 07:01 PM ET
I'd say that depends on the 3.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 03/21/23 07:35 PM ET
Nickel cannot play the 4...he's a 3 and a 3 only**
hokierevisionist • 03/22/23 12:36 AM ET
Nickel played HS ball in a very weak league. Don't know about AAU team?**
George Baylor • 03/21/23 05:55 PM ET
He played 2A, same level as Mac McClung, John Marshall loaded team
hokiepro • 03/21/23 11:32 PM ET
John Marshall is a bad example of you typical 2A team.
VaTechHokiesACC • 03/22/23 08:49 AM ET
Except Nickel’s last HS game was AGAINST J Marshall

st_andrew • 03/21/23 05:16 PM ET
Camden is our project and Nickel is UNC's project.
