Tend to agree, but remember when JRob was out in 2019? Similar outlook, but

others stepped up and we held our own during that stretch.

My realistic take - Without Cattoor we are not a tourney team.
VT ChemE 1986 • 12/24/22 12:27 PM ET
Remember, don’t overreact to a big win or panic after a loss. It’s early.**
BNOMO • 12/25/22 10:08 AM ET
100%, Boston college loss proved we are a bubble team even with him
soflahokie • 12/25/22 08:44 AM ET
Maddox is off to a rough start, but I don't think it's any worse than NA's
VT_EX_HOKIE_2002 • 12/26/22 01:17 PM ET
I think it best to draw as many conclusions as possible from
Pride_and_Joy • 12/25/22 11:37 PM ET
Not so fast my friend**
TomTurkey • 12/25/22 02:06 PM ET
Can we at least play the rest of the games just to see what happens? I mean
BNOMO • 12/25/22 10:13 AM ET
VT won the ACCT. QED**
TomTurkey • 12/25/22 01:06 PM ET
TBD
VaTechHokiesACC • 12/24/22 10:16 PM ET
I think it depends on if the team cleans up some of the sloppy play
4dhokies • 12/24/22 06:32 PM ET
Before BC we were top 15 best in country for fewest TOs per possession
hokiepro • 12/24/22 07:53 PM ET
Sounds unrealistic...**
Walkin` Willie • 12/24/22 05:13 PM ET
I agree….sky is falling mentality is tiresome. Good teams adapt to
HokieKC • 12/24/22 05:38 PM ET
Completely agree. It gets old. Injuries are part of the game. Next man up.**
BNOMO • 12/25/22 10:08 AM ET
What do you call a "good" team?
VTCALS72 • 12/24/22 07:52 PM ET
We fill find how masterful MY is**
RiverVT • 12/24/22 09:50 PM ET
To be seen if this is a good team. Others like Maddox, rice and collins
HokieKC • 12/24/22 09:41 PM ET
JRob’s loss wasn’t “crippling” because we still got a 4 seed
hokiepro • 12/24/22 07:54 PM ET
It kind of does
VTCALS72 • 12/24/22 07:57 PM ET
Agree tired of doom and gloom
RiverVT • 12/24/22 06:33 PM ET
Sounds like a pessimistic take to me. **
YBYSAIAHokie • 12/24/22 04:53 PM ET
I don't think we have any idea who we are, yet
maroonhiker • 12/24/22 03:52 PM ET
We do know that HC is our best defender.
NC Hoke • 12/24/22 05:43 PM ET
Rice’s stats vs very high level HS competition
hokiepro • 12/24/22 05:10 PM ET
The best HS is no comparison with college
HokieJack • 12/24/22 06:52 PM ET
Yes true but Rice faced many now-college players his last 2 years at DHS
hokiepro • 12/24/22 10:01 PM ET
Rice might replace Hunter’s offensive output.
NC Hoke • 12/24/22 05:47 PM ET
Tend to agree, but remember when JRob was out in 2019? Similar outlook, but ◄
johnmcd40 • 12/24/22 03:48 PM ET
To be fair, that team had way more top end talent to make up for it
soflahokie • 12/25/22 08:49 AM ET
Did we? If J Rob had not gotten hurt and we had not had to reboot
VTCALS72 • 12/24/22 07:54 PM ET
Have you forgotten about Rice?**
HokieHeartNSoul • 12/24/22 02:02 PM ET
Is he going to play this year?**
untuchVT • 12/24/22 04:20 PM ET
Have heard against WF. 🤞**
HokieHeartNSoul • 12/24/22 07:03 PM ET
He’s probably a starter at Wake
hokiepro • 12/24/22 05:01 PM ET
I bet Mutts starts at the 3**
soflahokie • 12/25/22 08:50 AM ET
I would be shocked if it's not Collins **
VictoryTurkey • 12/24/22 10:44 PM ET
Wake is big so we probably start kidd with basille**
hokietom87 • 12/25/22 06:35 AM ET
Oh, you mean the rookie that has never played a minute in college?**
VT ChemE 1986 • 12/24/22 02:10 PM ET
He should know his role by March **
VaTechHokiesACC • 12/24/22 10:17 PM ET
Yes him
hokiepro • 12/24/22 03:30 PM ET
All depends on how quick his learning curve is. Collins, too.**
vtbball80 • 12/24/22 03:30 PM ET
Collins has averaged 20 minutes per game in 13 games played
tallahasseehokie • 12/24/22 07:41 PM ET
He's been working out. Might not be too steep.**
TomTurkey • 12/24/22 04:30 PM ET
On one hand I’m thankful they’ve been letting him practice and get ramped
hokiepro • 12/24/22 05:04 PM ET
Maybe he wasn't physically ready yet. Coach knows best.**
HokieJack • 12/24/22 06:56 PM ET
I think the 5 on 5 time full court was what they were acclimating him to
hokiepro • 12/24/22 10:05 PM ET
You’re probably right but maybe Maddox will come up big. Also Collins.**
OrlandoHokie • 12/24/22 01:23 PM ET
🤞**
TomTurkey • 12/24/22 01:28 PM ET
Could be but I’m not doom and gloom
