I agree with this. Neo makes ALL OTHER HOKIES better on the court! That is

what is obvious to me, so he needs to be on the court! Those that criticize a play or two of his, IMO, are not really considering this point. Plus I think Coach Young knows best anyway!!

Cardiac kids and thoughts on Neo
MotorCityHokie80 • 01/22/26 11:06 AM ET
The NBA has a similar developmental system to MLB...
LonghornHokie • 01/23/26 02:18 AM ET
Motor City, spot on. I'm no NBA scout, Neo is not ready, next year maybe**
George Baylor • 01/22/26 04:15 PM ET
He should not be on the floor in end of game situations.
Gobbler Guru • 01/22/26 01:35 PM ET
Ergo...
Arch72Hokie • 01/22/26 06:23 PM ET
Schutt had a big turnover at the end
GreenvilleVT • 01/22/26 03:45 PM ET
I felt like AI could help answer why Neo would be drafted
LAHokieAlum • 01/22/26 01:12 PM ET
But is he really 6'-9" or closer to 6'-7"?**
YBYSAIAHokie • 01/22/26 04:41 PM ET
Neo...
Arch72Hokie • 01/22/26 12:44 PM ET
Neo looks a lot like NAW did as a FR
hokiepro • 01/22/26 12:38 PM ET
His offensive struggles remind me more of Dorian Finney-Smith.**
VT66 • 01/22/26 03:12 PM ET
DFS was way worse as a shooter **
hokiepro • 01/22/26 04:03 PM ET
Speaking of NAW, what a year he's having for the Hawks
Zanderhokie • 01/22/26 12:52 PM ET
He is playing great plus he defends too**
DCL • 01/22/26 02:51 PM ET
Sorta my point **
hokiepro • 01/22/26 01:30 PM ET
Yes, and NAW played a second year at VT

Stranger things have happened.We all made fun of Ryan Dunn and the UVA fans
HokieBrazil • 01/22/26 12:19 PM ET
I was one of those who predicted no way Dunn would go in the first round
Zanderhokie • 01/22/26 12:37 PM ET
I would say the Dunn/Neo comparison is flawed
wahoo2023 • 01/22/26 02:56 PM ET
Many of the DSU posters called Dunn a lottery pick,
GCHokieof91 • 01/22/26 12:29 PM ET
Neo to me didn’t seem to grasp that his increased notoriety would increase
hokienole • 01/22/26 11:36 AM ET
I don’t think we are allowed to make honest observations on this forum
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/22/26 11:29 AM ET
You offer your opinion on him and they offer...
Jackie VT • 01/22/26 12:06 PM ET
Not really
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/22/26 12:09 PM ET
Yep. There is a huge difference
Gobbler Guru • 01/22/26 01:38 PM ET
I'm saying, the other 4 players on the floor benefit to him being on the
Hokies23 • 01/22/26 01:36 PM ET
I agree with this. Neo makes ALL OTHER HOKIES better on the court! That is ◄
Scream_On_D • 01/22/26 09:54 PM ET
Look up the definition of opinion **
Hokie98 • 01/22/26 12:22 PM ET
💯%**
Windows NT • 01/22/26 11:56 AM ET
You are allowed your opinion - but when he's drafted in round 1, will you
Hokies23 • 01/22/26 11:50 AM ET
If Neo is drafted in the 1st round after his performance to date...
KiloZulu • 01/22/26 02:38 PM ET
Yes, but I won’t feel good about it
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/22/26 12:06 PM ET
Their potential in the NBA is different I believe. **
40ozDistrict • 01/22/26 04:41 PM ET
If the draft was purely about performance then I would understand....
Jackie VT • 01/22/26 12:26 PM ET
Yup - Corey Moore would have been a top 5 pick in the NFL.
jesuisvtguy • 01/22/26 01:12 PM ET
NBA teams draft based on potential and projections, not college stats
Zanderhokie • 01/22/26 12:54 PM ET
Then I don’t like the NBA draft!**
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/22/26 12:40 PM ET
I don’t like the NBA; barely resembles basketball **
hokiepro • 01/22/26 01:36 PM ET
College Success does not equal Pro Potential Success.
TheFacts • 01/22/26 12:18 PM ET
Because it feels wrong
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/22/26 12:43 PM ET
I feel a lot more confident when Hammond has the ball than Neo. I think
SHPHOKIE • 01/22/26 01:19 PM ET
1st round? you are not serious**
Windows NT • 01/22/26 11:58 AM ET
If I'm not, i'll come back and say i was wrong.**
Hokies23 • 01/22/26 01:34 PM ET
Well said!**
