DNG, Point Guard and next year
Okay, so GC’s comments in one of his below posts got me off the ledge ;-). The DNG news surprised me because he seemed to have even more minutes coming his way next season. His offense definitely approved, but I saw holes in his defensive play. My amateur eyes saw him struggle with switching and help defense. We would have struggled against ACC bigs next year if our 4s and 5s were Big John, DNG, Kidd, and the frosh 7 footer. With 2 of the 4 gone, I hope Plan B (ie transfer portal) provides us some ACC caliber bigs. Do you all think Kidd has more potential than DNG? Didn’t get to see much of him to judge his game.
Next question - who is going to back-up Pedulla? Please don’t tell me Hunter because he is much more effective at the 2. Are we looking for PG help in the portal? I hope Pedulla can handle a ton of minutes without getting in foul trouble.
Final question - if Mutts leaves, and we get no additional portal players, what are your guesses for starting 5 and next 3 off the bench?

And 240 on him looks much different that 245 on Ojiako or 235 on Keve.**

Your assumption seems to be DNG choosing to leave VT involuntarily
