I think he is a solid coach and his system works well. However, it is also predicated on the team playing together. We saw that on his NCAAT teams. But, this year (and he had some down years at Wofford, too) the players, as individuals, are all good enough, we're just not seeing them play as a team. In the portal era (which we're in, like it or not), I think it may get harder to build rosters like that. That being said, Mike Young has never had a losing season at VT and has won almost 400 career games. He knows how to coach and I think this year the Portal and whatnot got the better of him. He will adjust and the Hokies will be back to being what the Hokies have been for the last 20 years. A generally solid school that will make an NIT most years and an NCAA a fair amount (unless the certifiably insane committee makes a mistake). And, frankly, if he doesn't... we'll be onto our next coach in 2025 or 2026. And, even if we win a lot, Mike is 60, so retirement is always a possibility once you get into your 60s.
