That's his only shot at the next level...

I don't blame him But he is a 5 in a 4s body I don't know if anyone who sees him as a 4 is doing so based solely on his measurable but there's not a lot that screams 4 outside of said measurables He's a horrific passer, unreliable to dribble more than once and plays flat footed in space defensively looking for rim alterations rather than executing his role. All of those things above are just fine if you're a five, but it absolutely kills the offense if you touch the ball as much as VT 4s do and you can't do anything with it

Boeheim talked about how great of a BALL coach CMY is
hokiepro • 01/23/25 10:41 AM ET
Agree
crazylane • 01/24/25 10:38 PM ET
CMY has jus been kicked in the nads by the portal and NIL. That has never
ancient alien 2018 • 01/24/25 07:03 PM ET
I like him **
HokieMJL • 01/24/25 05:27 PM ET
He is a good coach. Shame not everybody agrees **
VaTechHokiesACC • 01/24/25 04:31 AM ET
Only the trolls and former church league basketball "all stars" disagree on
ancient alien 2018 • 01/24/25 07:05 PM ET
Amen **
HokiesACC2004 • 01/24/25 07:06 PM ET
Boeheim seemed as excited to be doing that game as i am to goto the dentist
AnotherTechW • 01/23/25 10:00 PM ET
Boeheim is useless on the broadcast, make that less than useless...
santafe • 01/24/25 09:20 AM ET
The man is 80 years old. I am impressed that he still cares**
OrlandoHokie • 01/23/25 11:46 PM ET
Boeheim's not thrilling, but he doesn't blow smoke either.
marcbvtgm • 01/23/25 10:39 PM ET
CMY is a great ball coach. However Bo whine is not someone’s whose opinion
uber hokie • 01/23/25 08:35 PM ET
Unfortunately CMY's system requires players stay and learn over 4-5 years**
MDHokie79 • 01/23/25 02:47 PM ET
Someone posted most of our starters last year already had their next gigs
Maroon Effect • 01/23/25 07:02 PM ET
It’s true that there is tampering, not sure if or how many of our guys it
NC Hoke • 01/23/25 08:08 PM ET
4 or 5 years would be optimal..
GCHokie34 • 01/23/25 05:14 PM ET
Is that really true (especially the 5 year part)?
GoldCoast • 01/23/25 03:41 PM ET
No, but like any coach, he needs more than 5 months with half the team
hoosnowahokie • 01/23/25 04:01 PM ET
The player dismissal was so predictable.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/23/25 04:22 PM ET
Yea, like all of your trolling, pathetic posts!! **
ancient alien 2018 • 01/24/25 06:44 PM ET
You always change the subject.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/25/25 09:45 AM ET
Maybe that was the best remaining PG egg**

Hey man, Rech was out performing Miller preseason. Bases covered TiC**
HokieRat • 01/23/25 08:04 PM ET
He can coach. Unfortunately that is only part of the job especially in
GBOHokie • 01/23/25 02:13 PM ET

The entire coaching community thinks highly of MY...
GCHokie34 • 01/23/25 12:03 PM ET
No one questions his ability to coach ball.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/23/25 04:25 PM ET
Maybe he is paid to coach ball and fans expect the management for free**
VTCALS72 • 01/24/25 06:31 PM ET
I’m sorry to say this but this is one of the

Chicken salad?**
TomTurkey • 01/23/25 04:39 PM ET
Try some of the macaroni salad also. Nicole will be offended otherwise.**
KCHokie2 • 01/23/25 10:50 PM ET
If you say so. Or he’s poorly suited to manage
Pride_and_Joy • 01/23/25 06:11 PM ET
This reminds me of a scene in Moneyball
crazylane • 01/24/25 10:46 PM ET
Mine was exaggeration. Both can be true to differing degrees. Neither is...
TomTurkey • 01/23/25 06:24 PM ET
Very much agree. He obviously doesn’t have a great
Pride_and_Joy • 01/23/25 06:30 PM ET
Agreed. Has to be frustrating. In his on-air words "Golly. Gosh!"**
TomTurkey • 01/23/25 06:32 PM ET
I agree but the last level someone who loves "coaching" basketball should
Vippie1 • 01/23/25 04:05 PM ET
It's sad, but you are correct. **
radhokie1 • 01/24/25 08:50 AM ET
This!**
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/23/25 01:19 PM ET
I've actually been impressed with what CMY has done with this group...
vthhhi • 01/23/25 11:53 AM ET
He is a good ball coach, no question. Seems the job now is about 20% ball
vtfin91 • 01/23/25 11:49 AM ET
VTs undoubtedly best lineup is with Burnham and Lawal at 4 and 5
GCHokie34 • 01/23/25 01:42 PM ET
You don’t think he’s gone no matter
Pride_and_Joy • 01/23/25 04:33 PM ET
Jones a lost cause? Coming in thought was highly skilled, in time...
GoldCoast • 01/23/25 03:55 PM ET
You've asked this question a half dozen times !!! NO! HE'S NOT A LOST CAUSE**
ancient alien 2018 • 01/24/25 06:47 PM ET
So what do you think of Jones? **
GoldCoast • 01/25/25 11:49 AM ET
Jones is absolutely not a lost cause
GCHokie34 • 01/23/25 04:30 PM ET
Can you please provide your assessment of Pat since you mentioned centers?**
IB4TECH • 01/23/25 03:43 PM ET
Huge improvement
GCHokie34 • 01/23/25 04:28 PM ET
Lawal wants to be a 4 I take it no matter what?**
atlhokie1 • 01/23/25 02:24 PM ET
That's his only shot at the next level... ◄
GCHokie34 • 01/23/25 10:21 PM ET
Lawal is a 4, and we need to keep him there.**
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/23/25 02:47 PM ET
What has happened to Jones. He has played maybe 20 minutes all year**
Nelsonia Hokie • 01/23/25 01:50 PM ET
No info there...
GCHokie34 • 01/23/25 01:59 PM ET
Gurdak is an Impressive prospect
RunHokieRun • 01/23/25 11:03 PM ET
My gripe this year is, how do you miss a layup get 3 put-backs and not...
vthhhi • 01/23/25 11:56 AM ET
Kids grow up practicing open 3s. Not contested layups against big bodies.**
Femoyer Hokie • 01/23/25 05:20 PM ET
An open 3 is an easier shot than a highly contested point blank shot with
