VTCALS72 • 02/20/26 08:45 AM ET
W/O a substantial additional $ investment, you wouldn't hire a new HC that

IMO we need a different coat of paint, what is MY w/o that ACCT banner?**
BROman Hokie • 02/20/26 09:51 AM ET
TIC correct?**
ancient alien 2018 • 02/20/26 04:53 PM ET
Umm, no, MY would have been fired 2 years ago w/o that banner**
BROman Hokie • 02/20/26 10:14 PM ET
yea sure. Because the lowest budget for basketball in the ACC has $ 10 mill
ancient alien 2018 • 02/20/26 11:22 PM ET
We need way more than a coat of paint.
VTCALS72 • 02/20/26 11:07 AM ET
A coach that has lead his team to the NCAA tournament more then 10 other

You had to bend over backwards to produce that nonsensical stat...
BROman Hokie • 02/20/26 10:29 AM ET

BROman Hokie • 02/20/26 11:02 AM ET
Of course not
Jwunderdog • 02/20/26 11:15 AM ET
His contract runs out next year, I believe? Would you sign him to
solareye • 02/19/26 01:16 PM ET
Only if he had a major increase for his budget and who knows if that
ancient alien 2018 • 02/19/26 01:20 PM ET
With upgraded talent this year .

.... and please don't let Babcock hire the new coach **
lazarus1 • 02/19/26 04:27 PM ET
5 games played with all that talent.
SC_Hokie • 02/19/26 02:27 PM ET
To go into his final year with no extension is suicide
Jethro Tull • 02/19/26 02:17 PM ET
Normally yes, but not a big deal anymore in transfer portal era.
icelus • 02/19/26 05:52 PM ET
Under normal circumstances yep
Vippie1 • 02/19/26 05:31 PM ET
UNLESS he has indicated it will be his last. Remember, HS recruiting is no
ancient alien 2018 • 02/19/26 04:41 PM ET
It's not even done that way in the NBA
Jethro Tull • 02/19/26 04:46 PM ET
Completely agree. You cant have the uncertainty
HwoodHokie • 02/19/26 03:54 PM ET
So you replace him with an new HC lose most of next year's
ancient alien 2018 • 02/19/26 07:26 PM ET
I didnt say fire. Extension is an option. But you have to choose one or the
HwoodHokie • 02/19/26 09:31 PM ET
Disagree but Your opinion is just as valuable as mine. Who knows what

Who said they .......
2hhoop3 • 02/19/26 02:05 PM ET
He has been short-handed EVERY game since Thanksgiving **
hokiepro • 02/19/26 02:04 PM ET
Injuries are a part of the game
Jethro Tull • 02/19/26 02:18 PM ET
Our injuries the reason we can’t make free throws at the end or
DCL • 02/19/26 08:37 PM ET
And he still played and contributed to the game
hokiepro • 02/19/26 02:54 PM ET
Agreed**
VT ChemE 1986 • 02/19/26 07:14 PM ET
You are arguing with folks that have their POV ingrained and it won't
ancient alien 2018 • 02/19/26 07:08 PM ET
Teams with less resources have less margin for error
SC_Hokie • 02/19/26 02:29 PM ET
Some folks don't want to so that's where both sides just move on.**
ancient alien 2018 • 02/19/26 07:27 PM ET
This is an historic injury season for VT. Make of it what you will but
VT One • 02/19/26 02:22 PM ET
Is it that historic? Lawal was out for a bit but has returned. Isn't
VAHokie89 • 02/20/26 04:43 PM ET
Lawal missed 8 games if I remember correctly. Dorn missed 4. Hansbury 1.
VT One • 02/20/26 10:35 PM ET
Hasn't that been the problem every season?
Jethro Tull • 02/19/26 03:06 PM ET
Not last year.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/19/26 05:22 PM ET
No, last year it was the Temple transfer that had the dirty hands injury
Jethro Tull • 02/19/26 05:29 PM ET
Ah. Yeah. If you're counting that as an injury, yes.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/19/26 05:37 PM ET
Well, it was the loss of a player whom CMY was counting on to play a lot
Jethro Tull • 02/19/26 06:05 PM ET
TBF, I think we're 7-4 in such games this year.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/19/26 06:18 PM ET
well, we couldn't even get the ball inbounds against Stanford
Jethro Tull • 02/19/26 08:40 PM ET
Just people catastrophizing
LAHokieAlum • 02/19/26 01:08 PM ET
People also blame coaches way too much for circumstances out of their
hokiepro • 02/19/26 02:02 PM ET
Nobody has shown improvement during course of the year
s11rww • 02/19/26 05:12 PM ET
Do you think we are more talented than NCSU? UL?
hokiepro • 02/19/26 05:51 PM ET
Coaches can’t gift players the “clutch” gene
hokiepro • 02/19/26 05:22 PM ET
I’ll give that CMY was dealt a REALLY bad hand with Neo
s11rww • 02/19/26 10:51 PM ET
