No I think SP & LK are leaving for more NIL or a better team. The players

I listed from NCSU, WF and Pitt (except Federiko) are leaving because of playing time. Vastly different. But to look at the type of players MY is losing (now collins, a "starter") is the question to ask compared to other teams. Especially if MY is hanging his hat on developing players, then why can't players be convinced their development would continue if they stayed? To ignore this is blowing sunshine up your 4th point of contact. Its similar to Fuente losing starters hand over fist. ** Edited by HokieRat at 3/27/2024, 5:10:12 PM

Player retention

It's 2024. You're obviously stuck in the 1990s. I'll send Sherman & Peabody

Actually it's more like we're reliving 2020.

Take off the VT glasses. Lots of programs are in the same boat.**
marcbvtgm • 03/27/24 01:36 PM ET
Mmm hmm. "Lots of programs" have 7 open scholarships...
Gobbler Guru • 03/27/24 07:24 PM ET
Correct. This is a MBB “issue” not a MY problem. **
JSCVPI20 • 03/27/24 02:11 PM ET
Pitt, Wake and NC State to name a few.**
Old Line Hokie • 03/27/24 02:05 PM ET
Pitts lost Frederiko (SO, starter) and Jeffress (JR, 10mins per game)
HokieRat • 03/27/24 02:34 PM ET
So, you think LK and SP are leaving because of MY? 😂**

It’s very weird that you believe this is a development issue
JSCVPI20 • 03/27/24 07:11 PM ET
You should reread the post your replying to before submitting your own...
HokieRat • 03/27/24 07:20 PM ET
It’s weird you’re saying he can’t maximize a team
JSCVPI20 • 03/27/24 07:22 PM ET
Right! not maximizing a team after winning a championship is weird
HokieRat • 03/27/24 07:25 PM ET
Yeah, you’re just being willfully obtuse at this point.
JSCVPI20 • 03/27/24 07:30 PM ET
Their rosters are full of transfers. Entire NCSU starting 5.**
Old Line Hokie • 03/27/24 03:41 PM ET
We had players leave with NO destination (Rice)**
3TechFanz • 03/27/24 01:33 PM ET
Bet he thought he did
HokiePoq • 03/27/24 02:56 PM ET
You develop Lynn Kidd for three years then right before his final year
JSCVPI20 • 03/27/24 01:27 PM ET
Says who its for $500K? I get it could be a hyperbole but is that realistic**
HokieRat • 03/27/24 01:35 PM ET
$500k is probably high, but it’s not hyperbolic.**
marcbvtgm • 03/27/24 01:37 PM ET
Correct**
Cvillehoops13 • 03/27/24 01:49 PM ET
Kidd specific? If so props to him. I remember the discourse about Beran #s
