With the win...
Mike Young is .500 against ACC teams at VT. The highest of any coach at VT in the ACC. Yes, even higher than that guy

Great info! How does current ACC compare to tenure of SG, Brent etc?
Hint: It does not. Apples to oranges but yet you spew your curve fitting nonsense.

Here are the analytics, as I stated it is not even close.
Conference rankings using Bart Torvik, pretty much mirrors Ken Pom but my sub is not active. KP will tell you same thing. 2008-  #3 with rating of .8588  2009-  #1 with rating of .8589 2010-  #2 with rating of .8694 2011-  #3 with rating of .8222 2012-  #5 with rating of .7758  (1st year JJ) 2013-  #4 with rating of .7969 2014-  #3 with rating of .8221 2015-  #2 with rating of .8547  (1st year Brent) 2016-  #2 with rating of .8530 2017-  #2 with rating of .8725 2018-  #3 with rating of .8447 2019-  #3 with rating of .8563 2020-  #4 with rating of .7906  (1st year MY) 2021-  #6 with rating of .8026 2022-  #5 with rating of .7890 2023-  #7 with rating of .7225 2024-  #6 with rating of .7722 I was strictly using analytics when I made the post. CMY has played against the weakest ACC conference (by far) in his tenure. The last 3 years of CMY are 3 of the 4 weakest in the last 17 years. And, we wonder why the ACC is so disrespected.

To take GCs data further, look at NCAA finals. During Buzzs reign
ACC made the NCAA final 4 times and winning it three times over 5 years During Greenberg, NCAA finals 5 times and winning it 4 times over 10 years Young, NCAA final once, winning it none over 4 years Sooo yeah Buzz had it harder if you look at it like that. It's easy to manipulate data for people to lazy to look that is up ** Edited by HokieRat at 1/27/2024, 11:38:54 PM

Speaking of manipulating data...
There have only been 3 NCAA Tournaments while Mike Young has been at VT

Doesn't stop some comparing CMY and Buzz ACC records over their 5 years
Like a COVID shortened seasoned or including the ACC tourney games

GCHokie34 OP
I was unaware that ACC Tournament games weren't against ACC teams...
The more you know, I guess

Kinda like a 2020 GT ACC tourney championship doesn't count cause of covid
Your words. I'm just trying to apply the same parameters you use in arguments of what games count or not ** Edited by HokieRat at 1/28/2024, 4:21:08 PM

No...youre not...
One team won because of forfeit, the other beat 2 Final Four teams You're either being dumb or willfully ignorant

HokieRat
No I'm just trying to see how the 2020 schedule can apply to CMYs record
But not to GTs tournament or success that season If you can't see that's changing a standard to fit a narrative the you are either willfully ignorant or dumb ** Edited by HokieRat at 1/28/2024, 9:20:35 PM ** Edited by HokieRat at 1/28/2024, 9:30:16 PM

I'm well aware you're failing to see it...
Mike Young is not getting credit for any forfeited games on his record. Every win and every loss came from an actual game being played. Georgia Tech go to the finals of the ACCT by forfeit...they didn't win that game I hope that clears it up, but am resigned to the fact that it wont

GCHokie34 OP
Let's dive into it...
I can't just take your word for it because you're making a statement based on feeling In the Greenberg era, 6 ACC teams made the Final 4 over the course of 9 tournaments For Buzz, it was 5 in 5 tournaments For Mike Young, it has been 3 in 3 tournaments Seems pretty even there Only one of the three won an ACC Tournament...and did so by beating TWO Final 4 teams from the same season. So maybe your next argument will be that basketball overall is down? It's ok to realize that Buzz wasn't the savior of the program he is painted to be. He had relatively the same amount of success as most other coaches who have come to Blacksburg. I hate that triggers you somehow, but it's ok to move on

Will, thank you once again for the Mute feature...
So we can more efficiently ignore certain people. @GCHokie34 - keep on telling the truth. You are a beacon of light, for those who will listen to reason. I tire of self-hating Hokies (^^^^^), who worship false gods. Y'all can just move to Texas, and do "favors" for ol' buzzy fuzzy wuzzy boy. Console him, after his weepy azz rants. Great win today. My favorite part was the 9-0 run after GT got it down to 7, then all of a sudden it was back to 16, and that was all she wrote. We even ended the game on a +3 run, after the lead was 21. GT, much like BC, hung around, but never quite caught up.

Coach Young never ceases to amaze me.
He knows his basketball and he's funnier than a pine knot.
