Bedford's advanced metrics are pretty bad

For the season, his WS/40 of 0.89 is 2nd worse among our key players to Avadalas, and his BPM of +1.8 is worst among key players. (Schutt is .101 and 2.9... avg player is .100 and 0.0) Which is surprising because I see Bedford as one of our better players - defensively and offensively. Maybe he's just not consistent enough, or maybe he suffers from being on the floor when we're getting torched. Looking deeper, Bedford's in-conference WS/40 is significantly better at .105 while Schutt's is dramatically lower at .041 which tracks with the eye test. Schutt is a decent defender but cannot make his own shot and cannot get open against good defenders. Meanwhile Bedford is quick and active on defense and can break people down on offense.

The young man from Greece should be coming off the bench as the six man.**

Would you start Schutt or Pasha in his place?**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/26 11:34 AM ET

Glad you were able to provide those stats.
T-Austin • 02/17/26 07:29 PM ET
To be clear, your subject line and post body are one sentence, correct?
Will StewartAdmin • 02/17/26 02:59 PM ET
My bad lol
T-Austin • 02/17/26 07:26 PM ET
Had to reread meself **
TomTurkey • 02/17/26 03:01 PM ET
Which one of Tobi, Hansberry or Gurdak...

Schutt has gone scoreless in two of his last five games.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/26 01:06 PM ET
Schutt doesn't
HwHokie • 02/17/26 04:07 PM ET
Just to add onto this
T-Austin • 02/17/26 01:54 PM ET
if you extrapolated that per minute played it would be similar to neo
Hokey Pokey • 02/17/26 01:49 PM ET
I guess you probably didn't read the FSU coach's quotes...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/26 04:57 PM ET
Schutt at least tries on defense
ShockWaveVT • 02/17/26 11:09 PM ET
Did they have Neo always guarding Somerville?
Hokey Pokey • 02/17/26 05:22 PM ET
We had several guys on him at various points...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/26 05:24 PM ET
Per Sports Reference, stats per 40 minutes:
David CunninghamAdmin • 02/17/26 03:30 PM ET
Neo's eFG is .38% got to be one of the lowest in ACC of guys that play.
Jwunderdog • 02/17/26 05:48 PM ET
There’s your answer, for ACC games.
Zanderhokie • 02/17/26 04:03 PM ET
Schutt and Neo
Midwestguy • 02/17/26 01:48 PM ET
Schutt is underutilized and is being overpaid
SC_Hokie • 02/17/26 01:21 PM ET
How do you know he's overpaid?
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/26 04:58 PM ET
That’s completely ridiculous that tsl doesn’t even have access to it.
SC_Hokie • 02/17/26 05:12 PM ET
And the players told your source the truth? I'd very skeptical of that...**
NokieHokie • 02/17/26 05:18 PM ET
If those numbers are true...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/26 05:16 PM ET
People like to focus on Neo but others like Schutt aren't exactly.....
