The same roster that went 8-9 after Catoor came back from injury? I must

be missing something. This roster is a long way from being a top 25 team. Our lack of defense and total indifference toward rebounding, which is nothing but effort btw, will never win consistently. You might win when your 3s are falling and your crowd is going wild, but get on the road and miss 3s and you are heading for blowout city.

What the staff's interest in transfer portal tells us (so far)...

Really appreciate this post, excited for next year. Question…
Squatro • 03/20/23 06:26 PM ET
Sounds like next year won't be much better than this year. **
39hokies • 03/19/23 02:40 PM ET
Based on what?**
WestEndHokie39 • 03/19/23 03:03 PM ET
That we are going to have pretty much the same roster.**
39hokies • 03/19/23 04:21 PM ET
The same roster (healthy) is a top 25 roster**

39hokies • 03/19/23 08:00 PM ET
The roster you're referring to was neither complete nor healthy...**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 08:34 PM ET
while you are correct, so was 39hokies
Glen Allen Hokie • 03/19/23 08:43 PM ET
Injuries had everything to do with it and I've explained why 200 times**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 08:44 PM ET
I've read your posts and respect your opinion. Doesn't mean I agree
Glen Allen Hokie • 03/19/23 08:51 PM ET
Basile averaged 1 less rebound than Keve Aluma...
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 08:57 PM ET
Ok, but your "ideal" roster does not look anywhere near a top 25 to me...
39hokies • 03/19/23 08:41 PM ET
The roster I mentioned...
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 08:43 PM ET
Being ranked top 25 one week doesn’t mean you have a top 25 roster. We
icelus • 03/19/23 09:13 PM ET
The following week is when Cattoor was injured**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 10:22 PM ET
Would either Battle or Beagle help us defensively and with rebounding? **
ThePrideofVPI • 03/19/23 02:40 PM ET
Being healthy will help with defense and rebounding **
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 05:59 PM ET
I sure hope so. We were ranked #222 in Defensive Efficiency and #265 in
ThePrideofVPI • 03/19/23 08:54 PM ET
Your stats are not adjusted for pace...
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 09:00 PM ET
What makes Battle an appealing player to replace Mutts?
soflahokie • 03/19/23 12:58 PM ET
His numbers dropped this past year for some reason.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 03/19/23 01:05 PM ET
Think he had surgery prior to the season? Foot? Knee?**
hokieZ71 • 03/19/23 10:21 PM ET
He was injured early. Could have been a nagging/lingering issue.
millmtnhokie • 03/19/23 01:27 PM ET
With guys like Battle
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 01:05 PM ET
I'm hearing HC is hanging it up... Nickel plugs into the 3 spot **
whatIpostlike • 03/19/23 12:48 PM ET
IIRC, you posted very early on that
Nortazhokie • 03/19/23 03:45 PM ET
I have a ear with the staff and some families... Radford ties **
whatIpostlike • 03/19/23 04:16 PM ET
That would not be ideal for VT on either front**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 12:58 PM ET
If no Cattoor, best option to start from your roster is Maddux or Collins?
vtbball80 • 03/19/23 02:23 PM ET
If not Cattoor, they need to get an experienced portal wing**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 05:57 PM ET
Give me Catoor please, coach on the court.**
Stech • 03/19/23 06:00 PM ET
Very much agreed**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 06:02 PM ET
Agree**
bhokie • 03/19/23 01:12 PM ET
Thanks for sharing, GC! Wessler is gone? **
icelus • 03/19/23 12:45 PM ET
No, that is my ideal scenario**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 12:46 PM ET
Should Battles rebounding numbers be concerning? Especially last year. **
st_andrew • 03/19/23 12:35 PM ET
The Hokies don't place any value on rebounding, 265th in the nation. **
39hokies • 03/19/23 02:47 PM ET
Not true**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 06:03 PM ET
Given the way MY teaches rebounding, no**
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 12:44 PM ET
Thanks GC. What’s the rotation at 4 with this roster?**
Femoyer Hokie • 03/19/23 12:26 PM ET
Battle 30+
GCHokie34 • 03/19/23 12:30 PM ET
Tyler Nickel? The one who went to UNC?**
133921Hokie • 03/19/23 12:26 PM ET
Yes, he's in the transfer portal**
