We’re six points away from being a tourney lock
But HC needs to be fired.
Odds of making the tournament next year with same level of funding and MY. Easily 85%+
Odds of making the tournament next year with new coach: ??? Probably not that high lmao.
Ohhhh but buttt buttt Jai Lucas made it in his first year…..
He would never come here
Buttt buttttr butttt Ryan Odom:
Again wouldn’t come here. UVA has 4 players making about 85% of our total pay roll.
Mike Young has 1 more year on his contract, firing him is just stupid.
Give him a little bit more money.
Neo and Tobi’s departure will free up 3 million.
You can use that to keep Hammond at all costs and Hansberry as well.
I would estimate, given what I know, that we would still have 1.5 million to replace tobi with. That money should be spent on ENTIRELY on an athletic 5.
This would give us:
1. Hammond
2. Top 75 perimeter defender
3. Johnson
4. Hansberry
5. Rim protecting 5
6. Gurdak
7. Schutt
8. Combo guard/ backup pg
9. Freeman?
10. Jones
11. Dorn🙄
This would require the team to have likely an additional million dollars. Putting the payroll between 7-8 million. Which is still middle of the ACC at best.

When D isn't played well: no stops, and therefore not a lot of separation

Without these injuries, we probably would have 5 more wins, and no one...
