Pedulla had a very good year last year. Exceeded all expectations. He
VT One 01/01/24 09:12 PM ET
He played with better offensive players last year: Mutts and Basile. Those
icelus 01/02/24 02:58 PM ET
Agreed. Basile was a walking bucket - hard to replace his ppg**
kingofcassell 01/03/24 12:36 PM ET
Losing Mutts and his passing skills has really hurt Pedulla this season
Zanderhokie 01/03/24 10:59 AM ET
Methinks losing Mutts hurt more than Basile. Mutts could do more overall.
YBYSAIAHokie 01/03/24 01:55 PM ET
Agree overall talent is lesser than last year**
HokieJamie 01/02/24 11:14 PM ET
Copy and Paste "Storm Murphy" into any thread with Pedulla...
GCHokie34 01/01/24 10:58 PM ET
dont remember storm being a liability defensively
hokieton 01/03/24 04:13 PM ET
He wasn't, but tons of people speculated that he was...
GCHokie34 01/03/24 05:49 PM ET
Storm played hard on defense regardless of his offense**
hokietom87 01/02/24 05:36 PM ET
Repeatedly better each yr? Hopefully they don’t repeat last yr’s improvemen**
marcbvtgm 01/02/24 11:06 AM ET
Right..if anything, the team historically plays worse in Jan before
6thStreetHokie 01/03/24 11:03 AM ET
And historically (albeit a short history) VT had better weapons.**

WildTurkE 01/03/24 02:35 PM ET
So, Pedulla is not struggling?
maroonhiker 01/02/24 10:58 AM ET
Yes, don’t believe your lying eyes 🤔**
VPI63 01/02/24 03:00 PM ET
Lets see... Good games vs ISU and USC
Woody 01/02/24 11:36 AM ET
Why are you placing all the blame on him?
WestEndHokie39 01/02/24 03:20 PM ET
Wait What?
Woody 01/03/24 01:30 PM ET
Because Critically Thinking about the team is : just too hard, man"!!
ancient alien 2018 01/02/24 04:18 PM ET
Pedulla is averaging 12.3 ppg and close to 5 assists per game
GCHokie34 01/02/24 11:27 AM ET
So is your "narrative" Pedulla has not been slumping, struggling of late?**
SCHokie80 01/06/24 10:11 AM ET
Turnovers and poor shot selection.**
HokiePail 01/02/24 02:01 PM ET
GC question for you
grtmmt 01/02/24 01:37 PM ET
Of course, yes
GCHokie34 01/02/24 01:39 PM ET
Will he be healthy this year?**
HokieDelNorte 01/02/24 04:27 PM ET
Pedulla is averaging a flat 4 assists per game and 3 TOs per game.
HokieRat 01/02/24 11:47 AM ET
Of course his injury and lack of practice time have nothing to do with his
ancient alien 2018 01/02/24 10:15 PM ET
The injury is a reason for two games, you got another one for the other 9?
HokieRat 01/03/24 09:11 AM ET
He was injured before the WF game.**
ancient alien 2018 01/03/24 04:10 PM ET
Thats what I said...the 2 games, WF & UVM. Not the 2 missed. Hes played 11
HokieRat 01/03/24 04:24 PM ET
How many chances to assist does he have?
hoosnowahokie 01/02/24 12:59 PM ET
I've heard ex-coach announcers refer to those as "coach's assist"....
vtbball80 01/02/24 05:56 PM ET
I like Coach's assists
hoosnowahokie 01/02/24 07:47 PM ET
Good question, but this is where I agree with Coleman and GCH34
HokieRat 01/02/24 02:17 PM ET
This is what I've been more worried about than Sean
hoosnowahokie 01/02/24 03:37 PM ET
That is the way I felt about the irresponsible narratives about the absolut
VTCALS72 01/02/24 11:43 AM ET
I think it's more about what we lack at other spots...
Chris ColemanAdmin 01/02/24 11:30 AM ET
For sure...
GCHokie34 01/02/24 11:37 AM ET
Question about Beran and Long
VT ChemE 1986 01/02/24 03:07 PM ET
Yep, I agree, there is more standing around than usual.
Chris ColemanAdmin 01/02/24 11:40 AM ET
Case and point, Mutts...
Chris ColemanAdmin 01/02/24 11:33 AM ET
But Mutts had bad turnovers!!!!**
King of Hokies 01/02/24 02:15 PM ET
The playing against athletes bit cracks me up every time

I've tried to have this conversation here....
vthokieq 01/02/24 11:23 AM ET
You’re in denial if you think those three stack up with top ACC athleticism
marcbvtgm 01/02/24 11:10 AM ET
Agree look at buzz teams here and look at this team.**
HokieJamie 01/02/24 11:16 PM ET
can we do that again? Sure. Is it likely, no. Doesn't mean we can't hope
reece4vt 01/02/24 09:55 AM ET
The narrative was not the same last year...
GCHokie34 01/02/24 10:13 AM ET
Injuries are a part of every year. Ours will come this year. Keeping ur 5
