That seems like a big problem to me. I don't expect Final 4s every year...

But this team continues to underachieve badly. I'd argue that MY has only really had a couple decent months here – his first month (winning at Clemson and beating MSU in Maui), and mid-Feb - mid-March 2022. There have been a few other highlights, but mostly underachieving expectations otherwise.

NIL, Retain & Portal**
VT757to276 • 03/13/24 02:48 PM ET
Sadly, I don't see much getting better as long as MY is around
hokiekev 2k4 • 03/13/24 02:39 PM ET
Yeah, you nailed it.
Maverick86 • 03/14/24 10:19 AM ET
Fortunately, you have a poor grasp of VT basketball as it relates to
ancient alien 2018 • 03/13/24 05:24 PM ET
That is not what I am saying at all...
hokiekev 2k4 • 03/14/24 10:31 AM ET
Purgatory, I have plenty of examples of that through the years
HokiesACC2004 • 03/13/24 04:22 PM ET
We got the NIL, but basketball program needs to be more engaged
DMV Gobbler • 03/13/24 03:13 PM ET
nor do I see us getting much worse......
ToledoHokie • 03/13/24 03:02 PM ET
Purgatory? Remember Frankie Allen? Bob Hussey?
Pylons • 03/13/24 02:57 PM ET
LOL I'd call those Hell instead!!**
ancient alien 2018 • 03/13/24 05:25 PM ET
oh god. i just had heart palpitations. hussey, stokes. ugh.**
Hokies23 • 03/13/24 04:11 PM ET
Those were Hell. This is Purgatory

Quite a few fans are pretty much never satisfied.

I'm not a fan of his rotation this year. Doesn't mean I want him gone.**
HokiePail • 03/13/24 02:54 PM ET
4 isn't going to happen and would be a mistake to do so...
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 02:32 PM ET
While it won’t happen, do you think it should?
HLTW! • 03/13/24 03:08 PM ET
No...it shouldnt
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 03:18 PM ET
except we don't have the talent to pull it off**
NativeBurger • 03/13/24 02:56 PM ET
Moving to a different defense isn't going to make the players better...**
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 02:57 PM ET
The problem isn't the scheme. It's the players
DangerousCrowd • 03/13/24 03:25 PM ET
The most unathletic player are the ones who can't suit up...
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 03:28 PM ET
Identifying the problem is the first issue
DangerousCrowd • 03/13/24 03:46 PM ET
Buzz cheated his balls off to recruit those players...
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 03:51 PM ET
Bench would probably help, but we need athletes
DangerousCrowd • 03/13/24 03:59 PM ET
The point is...
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 04:05 PM ET
You are either missing the point or resorting to straw man arguments
DangerousCrowd • 03/13/24 04:37 PM ET
Mike Young has recruited at the same level as any VT coach...
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 04:42 PM ET
Full court press (if you have a bench). Aggressively pressure the ball
DangerousCrowd • 03/13/24 05:01 PM ET
Just curious GC, are you on staff here? I ask because you keep answering
ancient alien 2018 • 03/13/24 04:52 PM ET
Since Mike has little control over 1 and 2 then we have to do 3.**
Femoyer Hokie • 03/13/24 02:38 PM ET
I would be in favor of moving on from 1 of the assistants, yes**
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 02:39 PM ET
Good list. 4 is a priority in my eyes.**
PennaHokie • 03/13/24 02:30 PM ET
Forget about all except #1
