As you say, the gap is large. While Expectations (and hopes) were high

coming into the season, this team has been consistently competitive, especially in league play all season. THE FSU "Unicorn" game is the only real head scratcher outcome we had during the ACC schedule. Which makes those last second losses hurt even more because they truly are the difference between the NCAAs & the NIT. Obviously, the coaches have had the team scouted & prepared every game. It feels like a season of "what could have been", but I've enjoyed the effort and the ride regardless.

This team doesn’t equal the sum of its parts **

The signs of that have been there since early in the season

Precisely…feel that way most games. Tough year for Mike Young, just didn’t

Imagine saying someone "didn't get it done"

This board is insufferable.**

VT has won 20+ games in 9 of the last 20 seasons, likely 10 after this year

Hey, unbiased factual talk is not tolerated in these parts, LOL**

2020-2021 was a Covid shortened season...
HokieNL • 03/04/26 10:50 AM ET
IMO had we played the Covid games that year we probably miss the tournament
soflahokie • 03/04/26 01:11 PM ET
So he has a chance to win 20 games in the best the ACC has been in a while**
GCHokie34 • 03/04/26 07:57 AM ET
He does, if he makes the tourney all is forgiven, that’s a tall task
soflahokie • 03/04/26 08:42 AM ET
Not to mention almost 20 wins with a nonconf SOS in the 200s
HokieRat • 03/04/26 01:43 PM ET
I kinda get what you're saying. But context is important. This isn't a team
HokieGator • 03/04/26 07:26 AM ET
Theres a large gap b/w "wow what a great season" and "didn't get it done"**
GCHokie34 • 03/04/26 07:33 AM ET
That's true. And I would lean much more toward not getting it done rather
HokieGator • 03/04/26 09:27 AM ET
Agree... and without NEO this team may win 14 games**
MrFantastic! • 03/04/26 06:08 AM ET
Not entitlement. It’s delusion. **
