We’re not striking out. Camden is a really good player
and his commitment made Ward less of a priority. An ACC title pales next to Gonzaga’s final fours and we are not going to win that battle even with a kid from Richmond. This is not about $$$ so much imo but who knows. The Miami situation with agents and billionaire investors tells me no one really knows what is happening behind the actual on campus recruiting. Most high end recruits will probably have someone in their ear and looking out for their best interests ie a handler/agent/nli marketing consortium. Another concern is the case of Ryan Young from Northwestern. He is a kid who could play a lot at VT who will probably play 7-10 minutes a game at Duke. This is not happening a lot but I believe we will see some grad students look at getting a “ring†at a blue blood while sacrificing minutes and getting a very good grad degree. Tech has a great educational opportunity but we need to go deeper into the tournament to open eyes.

Why are we not taking advantage of ACC title? We’re losing out on everyone**
