If you look at it this way ...

2022-2023 - Transfer (Basile) and Kidd with perhaps garbage time from PW
2023-2024 - Transfer and/or Kidd with 6-8 mpg from PW
2024-2025 - PW sharing time with portal transfer and/or future recruit
2025-2026 - PW sharing time with portal transfer and/or future recruit

it doesn't sound as disappointing. This scenario would require that we can bring in a portal 5 (or two) for the next two seasons. Development from Kidd would also be a big help. It also assumes that both Kidd and PW are content developing at VT without getting a ton of run (at least next season) and that is certainly no guarantee when the portal is so readily available.

Good or bad, this is the world we live in right now. Fortunately CMY has been pretty successful at mining the portal so far.

Honest question about 3 year development players aka Wessler etc.

It is overblown that kids wont wait...

Love the truth and honesty that sadly many don’t want to hear GC. **

I wonder if taking a kid 3 years away from contributing in the modern world
BG Hokie 05/03/22 09:38 AM ET
Asked the same question above. Feels like a bad bet on average.

By and large, I don’t think it will be worthwhile. The free

I think it makes perfect sense.
IronBlood 05/03/22 11:32 AM ET
Eh, I'm speaking in generalities about taking someone who will take 3 years
BG Hokie 05/03/22 11:35 AM ET
The three years away projection is just one person's opinion

Let's take Tutzler, for example. If Mike Young thinks he will take 3 years

Highlight tapes are often misleading.

His highlights are the texbook "hes just bigger than everyone else" example
