Did not disagree with that at all. But,

with Cattoor leaving we still have an open wing position we can offer and still have the 2 guard spot for Collins available. Would that much change in his role matter to him if he’s still getting 25-30 minutes a game? It just seems to me to be an awful lot of backfill building up here, not sure it’s being realistic we can bring in this many portal players. If Pedulla and Collins both go then by my count we need 4 guards from the portal (including the wing 3).

MJ Collins in portal
catdaddy • 03/27/24 03:46 PM ET
Not surprising at all. Another player checking his value.
NC Hoke • 03/27/24 04:30 PM ET
Yeah I expected him to stay because of the Pedulla thing**
soflahokie • 03/27/24 04:19 PM ET
I thought MJ advanced his game more than any other Tech player this season.
Hokie PE • 03/27/24 04:17 PM ET
Like I've said for weeks...
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:16 PM ET
There is almost nothing coming back. I don't see why EVERYONE
UTPr0sim • 03/27/24 07:21 PM ET
Meaning we were about to (try to) recruit a SG to take his minutes?**
chagerma • 03/27/24 04:20 PM ET
Nickel is bound to be entrenched in one of the starting wing roles
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:24 PM ET
This is what my assumption is, you can’t sell backup roles so move on
soflahokie • 03/27/24 04:55 PM ET
As he should have. He earned his spot as the year went on. We don't
VTMONEY94 • 03/27/24 04:27 PM ET
I mean...I agree
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:30 PM ET
Not to me. GC talked about what a great athlete he is but as far as playing
ancient alien 2018 • 03/27/24 04:11 PM ET
As Wayne Campbell would say... 'Squeeze Me? Baking Powder?
Woody • 03/27/24 05:56 PM ET
Thanks DEU44444. Might be a game of chicken between him and coach
catdaddy • 03/27/24 04:18 PM ET
All this is bad. Like really bad.**
VTMONEY94 • 03/27/24 04:03 PM ET
Haha, no one wants any part of this "system"**
WildTurkE • 03/27/24 04:00 PM ET
It has nothing to do with any “system”.
NC Hoke • 03/27/24 04:21 PM ET
This wasn't MJ Collins choice...
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:28 PM ET
MJ leaving was his decision
kingofcassell • 03/27/24 04:56 PM ET
And yet actual VTMBB insiders say the opposite 🤔
hokiekev 2k4 • 03/27/24 04:52 PM ET
Feel free to quote whoever is saying otherwise**
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:53 PM ET
Sure thing!
hokiekev 2k4 • 03/27/24 04:55 PM ET
You mean 247 guy knows more than our self proclaimed mod and guru?!
catdaddy • 03/27/24 06:39 PM ET
you are correct. i know that guy and he is connected to the program**
kingofcassell • 03/27/24 04:58 PM ET
Small world, went to school with him. Big bball insider
HokieRat • 03/27/24 05:07 PM ET
Interesting... small world indeed 🤔 **
kingofcassell • 03/27/24 05:19 PM ET
I do not know him, but posting history suggests he is quite close indeed
hokiekev 2k4 • 03/27/24 05:00 PM ET
U should ask if he’ll share the Rodney Rice details on 247
kingofcassell • 03/27/24 05:33 PM ET
Wait a second...
hokiekev 2k4 • 03/27/24 07:05 PM ET
No lol. But I share some things he tells me on here **
kingofcassell • 03/27/24 07:11 PM ET
Never heard of that person**
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:57 PM ET
Are you sure about that?
NC Hoke • 03/27/24 04:41 PM ET
I've detailed it multiple times over the last few weeks...
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:42 PM ET
Did not disagree with that at all. But, ◄
NC Hoke • 03/27/24 04:57 PM ET
Nickel could and should play 25 to 30 min next season...
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 05:02 PM ET
I usually agree with your analysis, but Nickel really struggles defensively
Femoyer74 • 03/27/24 05:12 PM ET
With a year under his belt...
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 05:15 PM ET
Yes, GC's theory is actually pretty solid. It's just wrong in this case**
hokiekev 2k4 • 03/27/24 05:02 PM ET
GC, you are a breath of fresh air in a room full of gas!! ( not petrol).**
ancient alien 2018 • 03/27/24 04:48 PM ET
Are you certain it was him who made the choice to leave?
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:20 PM ET
For once, please just go away. In fact, just mute me.**
WildTurkE • 03/27/24 04:22 PM ET
Ditto**
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:25 PM ET
Are you? Of course, you aren't**
catdaddy • 03/27/24 04:21 PM ET
Well I've been saying it for weeks...it happens...and now we're not sure?**
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:24 PM ET
Your logic doesn't hold up here
North Main Hokie • 03/27/24 07:49 PM ET
It's a huge coincidence...**
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 09:11 PM ET
You are wrong so often best to verify actual reason first
catdaddy • 03/27/24 04:34 PM ET
Yeah. Dude thinks he’s Phil Jackson**
kingofcassell • 03/27/24 05:53 PM ET
Totally believe you could...**
GCHokie34 • 03/27/24 04:37 PM ET
The recruits we have coming in must be scratching their heads right now. **
RhinoVT • 03/27/24 03:58 PM ET
I’d be saying “hell yeah I can get 30mpg and transfer up”
soflahokie • 03/27/24 04:32 PM ET
Probably more like checking their bank accounts.
NC Hoke • 03/27/24 04:17 PM ET
What is your source?**

hoosnowahokie • 03/27/24 04:00 PM ET
So who's left? Seriously. The list is 5 long?**
hoosnowahokie • 03/27/24 03:48 PM ET
Still have Tyler Nickel, Jaydon Young, Patrick Wessler, and Brandon
MV Trumpet • 03/27/24 03:54 PM ET
I think Poteat does (may be wrong) but thing with him is bad knee(s)
HokieSA • 03/27/24 04:07 PM ET
Poteet in portal**
Durham Hokie • 03/27/24 08:00 PM ET
Nobody wants to play for coach Mike?
vtchem75 • 03/27/24 03:53 PM ET
Not that. Collins is in to see if his NIL value has increased.
NC Hoke • 03/27/24 04:14 PM ET
Would you go for a natty or more NIL money? I think its a natty for Pedulla**
jrc3rd • 03/27/24 04:30 PM ET
Who do you know who doesn’t want more money?
