If Mike Young is an average recruiter...

Then every coach who has ever coached at VT is an average recruiter... Greenberg recruited the top recruit of all time in 247 rankings Young and Buzz both recruited 2 of the top 5 When it comes to the Top 25 of all time... Buzz Williams - 7 Mike Young - 8 Buzz Williams win % at VT: 59.2% Mike Young win % at VT: 58.2% Buzz vs ACC: 48-51 Mike Young vs ACC: 50-52 All this to say we don't need to "wait and see how the season plays out" because if you're going to say he can't recruit despite data saying he has recruited the exactly the same as any other coach at VT then there's nothing he can do this season that will change your mind...it's a dishonest stance to take in that the whole argument tries to presume a false premise (that MY hasn't been able to recruit at the level of Buzz or anyone else)

How tall are Jones & Johnson. I am thinking 6’ 7” and 6’ 5”?**
VT ChemE 1986 06/28/24 10:44 AM ET
The roster lists Jones at 6'8" and Johnson at 6'5"**

Sounds like some talent there, and it may take one of CMY's best coaching

I think it'll depend on not only his improvement but what's around him...
GCHokie34 06/28/24 11:50 PM ET
I read someone say that Jaydon Young had a great off-season.
YBYSAIAHokie 06/27/24 07:27 PM ET
Thx for the recap. Any thoughts on the portsmouth kid who just committed?**

Maybe a more pointed question:

Playing time is about talent plus opportunity...
GCHokie34 06/27/24 10:37 PM ET
Not being snarky...
NativeBurger 06/28/24 04:57 PM ET
If Mike Young is an average recruiter...
GCHokie34 06/28/24 07:09 PM ET
Interesting question would be who actually stayed and contributed vs left

Curious how “portal” impacts ratings analysis
HokieDelNorte 06/28/24 09:56 PM ET
Who knows...
GCHokie34 06/28/24 10:07 PM ET
Pathetic question, really.**
