Va Tech Roster Look
Definitely not an expert but diving into with all the new players
Hysier Miller transferred from Temple where he was double figure scorer and starting guard at the point.
Ben Burnham transferred from University of Charleston where he was a double figure scorer at 6’7” who does a little bit of everything.
Mylyjael Poteat is a 6’9” bruiser who is skillful who probably only plays up to 25 minutes due to legs?
Jaden Schutt is a 6’5” transfer from Duke who played sparingly mainly due to talent on roster and an injury but was a top 50 player and a shooter who could flourish in a. Mike Young offense?
Rodney Brown JR is a 6’6” transfer from California who just shot 3 point shots, played in every game, and shot 39.7 percent as a freshman.
Brandon Rechsteiner and Jaydon Young are two sophomores who should receive playing time. We saw them play last year. Young looks like a spot up shooter and Rechsteiner a back up point guard for now.
Toibu Lawal is a transfer from VCU who is a gifted leaper and will play and add some excitement. How much depend on his other attributes as a player
The two true freshman from Florida I have to admit ignorance on Tyler Johnson 6’5” and Ryan Jones at 6’8” with some bulk
The other transfer from Eastern Michigan, Connor Serven, who is 6’8”, hopefully can play some defense and provide a few minutes.
In looking at the roster keys will be, especially after Miller and Burnham, development of Brown Jr, Schutt, and Lawal as well as improvement in Young and Rechsteiner.

Think the main question in my mind is how the minutes will break down

The most obvious problem (there are others) is who plays the other . . .

I would add that Schutt and Brown were solid 4* recruits at Duke and Cal.
