You don't wanna do this...

Cut (2) You can be cut and not drop down in competition Academic probation (2) How is academic probation dropping down for PT? Legal trouble (boots, not numbered) Honor Court (2) Again, not dropping down for PT Play a different position (2) Rodney Rice could play PG elsewhere without dropping down Hazing (yeah, nice vaguery) Wtf? Northwestern Coaching staff wasn't as good of a fit as once thought (4) You don't have to follow anyone to not fit with a staff Illegal inducements (another, show it) Tayvion Robinson Life outside basketball isn't what you thought (1) If you want to make the definition of "personal" to be "literally any ****ing thing you want" then sure Injury (2) An injury means you can't cut it? Not allowed to pursue the major of your choosing (1 or 2, nice excuse) Quincy Patterson was frustrated he didn't get to be in engineering like he was promised...but, bury your head Racism/bullying (2, you're stretching here, with hazing) Racism is hazing? Lol Decided you wanted to spend 3 years of your life in Hawaii (1) Again...if your definition of personal is anything you want it to be we can't really have a discussion, you've literally included everything Sibling commits elsewhere (1 or 2) Sibling goes elsewhere means you can't cut it? Decide to pursue a different passion (1 or 3) This...doesn't even make sense Decide to give up basketball altogether (I'll give you this one, if Rice doesn't play again) Realized you didn't like the school/area (1) Personal - (noun) anything you want it to mean Fight with a coach (2, most likely) Antwaun Powell Ryland couldn't cut it at UF?? Sexual abuse (really?) https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/29114869/n... Educate yourself... Broken recruiting promises (2, probably because you don't live up to expectations) If I promise a kid he will play 30 minutes, and he doesn't play 30 minutes...it's his fault Got it

Did Rechsteiner chase away Rice?
VT ChemE 1986 • 11/07/23 03:57 PM ET
Possibly. Those Steiner promos can be intimidating.**

Don’t put too much stock into 1 game against a team that can’t score and

Either way he’s gone so let’s let him go and move on. His ranking was a

Where Rice lands will have nothing to do with why he left**
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 06:05 PM ET
Agree with this**
Cvillehoops13 • 11/09/23 02:59 PM ET
hang on.. he xferred in order to play PG, but that wont decide his new..
ShockWaveVT • 11/07/23 09:13 PM ET
He can decide to leave VT because he wants to play PG...
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 09:19 PM ET
Holy crap!
okiedokeyhokie • 11/07/23 10:44 PM ET
sure other factors will play a role..
ShockWaveVT • 11/07/23 09:35 PM ET
He might...
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 09:39 PM ET
Sure, whatever. There are 4 basic reasons to transfer.
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 06:30 PM ET
There are hundreds more reasons...**
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 06:51 PM ET
Start listing. I'll let you stop at 20, just to be nice.
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 06:56 PM ET
Sure...
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 07:49 PM ET
Throw in a mercy flag. That was a beat down. **
GreenvilleVT • 11/08/23 01:46 PM ET
Mic Drop **
VaTechHokiesACC • 11/08/23 01:56 AM ET
Want to spend 3 years in Hawaii, sign me up for that option!
13HOKIE • 11/07/23 09:59 PM ET
I think all the long flights Hawaii has to take would get old fast. **
Hoakie82 • 11/08/23 11:56 AM ET
I don't back down from specifics.

They call this a technical fall in wrestling.

I'll just give you a pass. Most of those fit right in the

"You have your koolaid drinkers." (??)**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/07/23 08:34 PM ET
Funny you say that...
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 08:23 PM ET
Again, you tell us when he lands. It'll fit one of my boxes.**
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 08:29 PM ET
He wanted to play PG...
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 08:30 PM ET
So, it's #2. I knew the answer the whole time.
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 08:46 PM ET
If Rodney Rice goes to Maryland, did he drop down?
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 09:01 PM ET
Well. It's closer to home, isn't it, and it follows a coach, doesn't it?
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 09:49 PM ET
Your earlier comment about "kool-aid drinkers" shows your opinion of GC**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/07/23 10:07 PM ET
I think you're confusing me with a 247 insider...
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 09:51 PM ET
No, I'm not confusing you with anyone. You started arguing my basic
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 10:12 PM ET
Who gives a sh*t other than you. He decided to transfer as he wanted to
Femoyer74 • 11/07/23 10:15 PM ET
I don't care one way or the other. This is about a cryptic poster who
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 10:20 PM ET
Really….you’re trying to agitate GC by posting you know more than he does
Femoyer74 • 11/07/23 10:39 PM ET
I knew the reason all along. I just get tired of the cryptic posts of
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 11:31 PM ET
Other seem to know but respect his decision?**
TomTurkey • 11/08/23 09:36 AM ET
Give examples...
GCHokie34 • 11/08/23 05:31 AM ET
You aren't the only person with "inside" info. Let it go. Just stop
UEMcGill • 11/08/23 09:35 PM ET
So no examples?**
GCHokie34 • 11/09/23 07:16 AM ET
If this were a Football game, UEM would be tossed out for targeting**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/07/23 11:00 PM ET
Really? He made some excellent points. **
Blueboy • 11/07/23 11:42 PM ET
Told nobody nothing except a hypothetical list of reasons for leaving.**
TomTurkey • 11/08/23 02:50 PM ET
I think this guy just wants to be contrarian**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/08/23 10:39 PM ET
Lol….really?**
Femoyer74 • 11/08/23 09:48 AM ET
I guess they went over your head. **
Blueboy • 11/08/23 06:16 PM ET
All he did was make the same ones that GC and Cville made…..it would help
Femoyer74 • 11/09/23 11:35 PM ET
Why the attitude.
133887Hokie • 11/07/23 07:20 PM ET
Bwahahahah!! 😝**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/07/23 08:28 PM ET
No attitude. Exaggerating is unacceptable.**
UEMcGill • 11/07/23 07:25 PM ET
I've told you a million times, to not exaggerate!**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/07/23 08:29 PM ET
I'd consider adding a few more to that list....
WV-Hokie • 11/07/23 06:41 PM ET
Perhaps it wasn't JUST about basketball. **
vthokieq • 11/07/23 04:26 PM ET
It was 100% basketball**
GCHokie34 • 11/07/23 06:06 PM ET
Is that a little high?
VTCALS72 • 11/08/23 09:16 AM ET
Naw, we've had football players 200 % committed before........**
atlhokie1 • 11/09/23 11:19 PM ET
100% is hyperbole, but all the significant factors are basketball decisions**
GCHokie34 • 11/08/23 09:31 AM ET
OK, thanks,**
VTCALS72 • 11/08/23 10:29 AM ET
Was he not named the starter and therefore he decided it wasn't worth
VTStylez9 • 11/07/23 06:20 PM ET
This game is more fun than Wordle and Connections **
TomTurkey • 11/07/23 07:17 PM ET
Wordle is fine. Connections is evil. 👹
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/07/23 08:30 PM ET
Nope.**
David CunninghamAdmin • 11/07/23 04:05 PM ET
I know the reason and can’t tell you??
vtfin91 • 11/07/23 08:08 PM ET
Just understand this
David CunninghamAdmin • 11/07/23 09:50 PM ET
Did you talk to Will about telling people to cut down on board traffic? :)**
atlhokie1 • 11/09/23 11:21 PM ET
In the absence of facts, speculation is all that exists.**
Italian Stallion • 11/08/23 01:24 PM ET
Haha David we have a Mount Rushmore growing of "what-could-have-beens"..
HokieSA • 11/08/23 12:59 PM ET
David, I understand the intent of your post, and agree with it.

HeisenBurg13 • 11/08/23 07:04 AM ET
Mad respect for you and the quality you bring, but I don't get this take
VTFuzz • 11/08/23 05:05 AM ET
I agree....don't need David or others telling me to not discuss something**
BleedinOandM • 11/08/23 06:34 AM ET
Try discussing politics here. See how far that goes.**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/09/23 12:20 PM ET
Something Hokie related...I agree, politics is different.**
BleedinOandM • 11/10/23 06:39 AM ET
Well, yes, true... my analogy was not exactly parallel**
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/10/23 06:51 AM ET
did um's feelings get hurt?**
HOKIE75-79 • 11/08/23 07:28 AM ET
Good lord...now you try and mock me. Childish response.**
BleedinOandM • 11/08/23 08:27 AM ET
Discussing it is one thing. But this horse has been beaten to death.
HeisenBurg13 • 11/08/23 07:09 AM ET
Or do what I do. Ignore those posts.**
Atlee Hokie • 11/08/23 11:36 AM ET
Oh, I have moved on...my issue is someone telling me....
BleedinOandM • 11/08/23 08:26 AM ET
Someone other than @Will Stewart, you mean?
No_Limit_Hokie • 11/08/23 10:36 PM ET
Nope, doesn’t matter who….just sayin’.**
BleedinOandM • 11/09/23 04:39 AM ET
David, you make too much sense. But it won't die for one big reason

Blueboy • 11/07/23 11:45 PM ET
The conclusions being drawn from one game

Yes. I am entertained by myself!**
VT ChemE 1986 • 11/07/23 04:02 PM ET
