I don't disagree, but I also believe...

That when you have a coach who is as good with X's and O's as Mike Young is, and who is as genuinely liked by the fans as Young is, then you need to give him a chance to fix it. It's not like we're miles away. We're playing better basketball now. Our last two losses were to an NCAA team in Miami by 4 without Cattoor, and on the road by seven to a team that is unbeaten at home. We've got issues, for sure, but as fast as things can go downhill in basketball with one or two bad decisions, they can just as quickly rise back up with one or two good decisions. It will be important to make good decisions this offseason.

Could Young's seat be warm next year if we finish under 500 this yr?

IMO, yes.**
BleedinOandM • 01/18/24 07:28 AM ET
I would think it will be a great conversation
RiverVT • 01/17/24 11:28 PM ET
No, but these are the same folks who wanted Pry fired to start the year
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/17/24 11:25 PM ET
Absolutely it will be!**
jecvtmgr • 01/17/24 10:30 PM ET
Did you get this info straight from Whit? Where did it come from, please??**

You have to win games or at least look pretty losing.
HolidayInnHokie • 01/17/24 10:51 PM ET
Except we are 10-7
hokiepro • 01/17/24 11:00 PM ET
Doubtful nor desirable. ACC is likely crumbling
WildTurkE • 01/17/24 10:24 PM ET
No. Not at all. The grass is not greener.**
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/17/24 10:16 PM ET
Lets be honest, this isn't working
lazarus1 • 01/17/24 10:11 PM ET
Nope **
sideline guy • 01/18/24 12:10 PM ET
And that's very unlikely to happen.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/18/24 09:45 AM ET
Great post.**
WestEndHokie39 • 01/19/24 08:11 PM ET
All good points**
lazarus1 • 01/18/24 04:56 PM ET
If it’s not in our culture to aspire to be better, that’s on us.

Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/18/24 10:53 AM ET
I like Mike Young and don’t want him to be fired.
hoaf • 01/18/24 11:17 AM ET
As to your last sentence...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/18/24 11:21 AM ET
Yep I agree and very realistic post**
RiverVT • 01/17/24 11:30 PM ET
Who do you replace him with?**
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/17/24 11:26 PM ET
rotfl!! sorry, but this post made me laugh.**
ancient alien 2018 • 01/17/24 10:30 PM ET
Under 500 this season? So VT only wins 5 or less, of their 14 remaining
ancient alien 2018 • 01/17/24 10:10 PM ET
O/U would be 6. 8-12
Woody • 01/18/24 08:29 AM ET
The way they are playing, they'll be lucky to win 5 more games.**
LXNTN_HOKIE • 01/18/24 02:47 AM ET
No. He’d have several years of 500 ball before his seat is warm. **
GreenvilleVT • 01/17/24 09:47 PM ET
I don't know about several, but you're right. His seat will only be warm in
