Does Virginia have a more talented roster than us?
Because we play similar schedules so is it fair to say either they're overachieving or we're underachieving? Which one is it?

Yes and that is the answer not that they are overachieiving or that
we are underachieving. And for sure, Neo has high potential but given his output, his "ready" talent is just not there at this time.

Better players make better coachess way more than better coaches make
better players. It goes both ways but coaches making players better is macro work and players making coaches better is micro work.

Yes - our NIL was >15M. Our issue is that we haven't played a complete
game yet but we have the talent to win a lot of games with our B- game.

This is spot on
We played probably a B- to C game vs FSU.

Without knowing nil amounts
It’s hard to know who’s your peer ( for comparison).

I hear you, but is there little doubt that Odom is a better coach than MY?

There is a lot of doubt.
Since one has some to a significant amount of greater assets, there is no way to compare.

That we had a chance to hire Odom and Babcock blew it at the end

LMAO ! Odom was HC at UMBC when CMY was hired. VT was NOT going to hire
a HC from there. You may want to use Google to get your facts straight before posting something from a different reality.

Don't you know, VT is a giant and is only "sleeping" because VT
personnel are actively working against us🤣.

They win the games they are supposed to win
They haven't beaten anybody good and I don't think they will beat Duke. They don't even have to play Klempsun. They struggle with bottom tier teams (and they have a bottom feeder schedule) but seem to find a way to win in the end. VT, as has usually been the case under CMY, has that occasional great game but then often follows it up with some real clunkers.

They are 11-3 q1/q2 and 7-1 true road games.
They won at SMU, at Louisville, at NC State, at Texas. ** Edited by RCush13 at 2/14/2026, 7:02:10 PM

were. that's the key word
ND was a 2 OT game, beat BC by a touchdown I think, lost to VT, Butler is 13-12. Bottom feeders. Look at who they play

They’re winning we aren’t, why does it matter?
We tried to choke that game 10x too.
