Worst tournament in memory. Thanks transfer portal and NIL
ModerateHokie 04/04/23 08:20 AM ET
Go drastic … make it 4on 4. 5 on 5 was created when players were smaller.
1980VT 04/05/23 11:42 AM ET
I think it would be better if they dropped back to 48 teams. Way too
reestuart 04/04/23 05:32 PM ET
Clemson was deserving and didn’t make it; so was N Texas
hokiepro 04/05/23 08:23 PM ET
Not really. Drop it to 48, and there’s no debate on teams that are barely

Which conferences would you take the auto bids from?

I think “1 and Dones” led to hoops going down.**

I've thought that any "1 & done" player that heads to the NBA should...

I like that. **

Didn’t schools use to have to meet graduation requirements?**
TabbHokie 04/04/23 02:08 PM ET
Don't think that applies to P2 schools**
EDGEMAN 04/04/23 03:11 PM ET
One of the best ideas I've heard in a long time!**

This is pretty patently false, the final 4 have been very experience
soflahokie 04/04/23 01:17 PM ET
I'm talking about great teams. Not what we saw this year.
crazylane 04/04/23 08:27 PM ET
FAU only had one senior on their roster I believe. They will be a top 10

funny TV ratings were over the roof

For women yes. Mens was done over 20%**

I vehemently disagree with your opinion

All depends how......

I strenuously object your honor**

You strenuously object my honor?
YBYSAIAHokie 04/04/23 01:51 PM ET
I guess that went over your head.

The Men's game has been getting worse long before the transfer portal/NIL
Maroon Baboon 04/04/23 11:14 AM ET
I blame Steph Curry
VaTechHokiesACC 04/04/23 07:27 PM ET
Blame the 3-point line**
Stork 04/04/23 04:14 PM ET
1986. Three point line added. Gradually impacted the way the game is played**
Femoyer Hokie 04/04/23 11:25 AM ET
I don't think the 3-pt field goal has hurt basketball or the big man like
Maroon Baboon 04/04/23 03:20 PM ET
For the better. Before 3-point line, it was a big man's game exclusively.
YBYSAIAHokie 04/04/23 11:49 AM ET
I realize many/most feel this way. I have no problem with clogged lanes.
Femoyer Hokie 04/04/23 12:05 PM ET
How about moving 3 point shots out to the NBA line, add a 4 point line, and
EDGEMAN 04/04/23 12:13 PM ET
I'm pretty sure this is a joke but it would be interesting to see Steph
ME Hokie 07 04/04/23 12:34 PM ET
A little kidding there, but moving the 3 point line back to NBA range...
EDGEMAN 04/04/23 12:46 PM ET
It would still be the same at the baseline.
YBYSAIAHokie 04/04/23 01:16 PM ET
How about ending the 3 point line where it intersects with the edge...
EDGEMAN 04/04/23 01:20 PM ET
BINGO!! Make the 3-point line consistent at every point.
YBYSAIAHokie 04/04/23 02:02 PM ET
Zero chance the court gets widened. Basketball coliseums have already...
EDGEMAN 04/04/23 03:13 PM ET
I agree. It was stupid to change the 3-point line if the court isn't
YBYSAIAHokie 04/04/23 03:27 PM ET
Does the NBA play on a wider or longer court?**
EDGEMAN 04/04/23 03:47 PM ET
No**
VaTechHokiesACC 04/05/23 07:26 AM ET
It actually just means players will get better at shooting from deeper

UTPr0sim 04/04/23 12:20 PM ET
Really?
vthokieq 04/04/23 09:27 AM ET
I can also see close games and buzzer beaters in local high school games...
ModerateHokie 04/04/23 11:41 AM ET
That’s an overall issue with college basketball (or basketball in general).
vthokieq 04/04/23 11:52 AM ET
You can't both want bigger name teams in the F4...
GCHokie34 04/04/23 08:59 AM ET

VaTechHokiesACC 04/05/23 07:27 AM ET
The margin of victory was the main problem with the Final Four.
hokieZ71 04/04/23 12:52 PM ET
With NIL and portal, you just need to look at the quality of the game and
atlhokie1 04/04/23 10:16 AM ET
Who determines quality, in your view?**
GCHokie34 04/04/23 12:14 PM ET
Guess it's everyone's opinion. Good defense, not turning it over, etc.
atlhokie1 04/04/23 12:36 PM ET
Exactly. Quality is not good.
ModerateHokie 04/04/23 11:43 AM ET
Will CMY do well in this era of NIL and transfers?
atlhokie1 04/04/23 12:39 PM ET
It depends where they are coming from.
1980VT 04/04/23 01:00 PM ET
No, no you have it all wrong, they want VT and the bigger names
VTCALS72 04/04/23 09:19 AM ET
The tournament up until the final was fantastic
