About those injuries this season

I did a little research on ChatGPT Estimated answer: average games lost by top 8 players Typical NCAA Division I men’s basketball team: • ≈ 30–40 games missed per season among top 8 players • Equivalent to: • ~4–5 games missed per player per season on average • Usually concentrated in 1–3 players with moderate injuries There was a lot more data there as well, but this is the gist of it. I don’t think VT is much above that total. You have to expect injuries and try to plan for them. That being said, I wonder how much injuries have hampered Neo. And I do miss watching Tyler Johnson play.

Theres not a single chance 30-40 games missed is the average nationally

All it takes is one player to miss the whole season and you're almost there

One of the TSL pods last week quoted a stat that we're (I think) top 10
