Your last sentence would be an amazing solution!!

Unfortunately that can't happen... But sure, they "used" all 13 scholarships. However, and this is where the Monday morning QB/Coach in all of us comes out. Why not more? It has become abundantly clear under the CMY era that he is going to wear the hell out of his guards (again, roster issues, not all of which is his fault, but certainly his responsibility), and that is and issue when you have guards sitting on the bench all season long. If we are going to win 2 road games all season, and lose by 20-30 points when we are on the road, simply give those minutes to those guys. All I'm saying is we have a roster issue. And from my perspective a rotation issue.

Young should have played a lot more imo....
HokiePail • 03/13/24 02:50 PM ET
I think most coaches are around a 7/8 man rotation. We just do not have..

OakHillHokie • 03/13/24 02:40 PM ET
Young should have played a lot more this year...
HokiePail • 03/13/24 02:52 PM ET
That's simply not true...
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 02:38 PM ET
I can only speak to what I've seen regarding his tenure at VT.
BuffaloTraceHokie • 03/13/24 02:44 PM ET
You’ve seen that this season due to necessity, not choice.

Would also like a couple of few big dance wins**
lazarus1 • 03/13/24 04:54 PM ET
I'm not sure we disagree on this point...
BuffaloTraceHokie • 03/13/24 03:24 PM ET

BuffaloTraceHokie • 03/13/24 03:51 PM ET
Why not use more than 13 scholarships?
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 03:56 PM ET
I think we agree to a certain extent...
BuffaloTraceHokie • 03/13/24 04:22 PM ET

Way too many facts in this post - slow down **

I'm not sure what your point is here... other than to argue.
BuffaloTraceHokie • 03/13/24 02:58 PM ET

As a coach, there is a huge difference between mistakes...
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 03:53 PM ET
I agree here...
BuffaloTraceHokie • 03/13/24 04:24 PM ET
No player is going to be mistake free...
GCHokie34 • 03/13/24 04:31 PM ET
How is 18 wins not very good against a very tough schedule?
