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.

in score differential.
Other than Clemson, double digit wins are tough to come by.
When every game comes down to the wire, end of game dynamics and hi basketball IQ matters.
add in injuries -- and all these multifaceted reasons -- simply increases the probability of close heart break losses (and the OT wins) VT has seen.

Last night his lack of basketball smarts and iq reared its head again with last foul being big head scratcher

We’re in the bottom half of the league standings for a reason. The reason is we simply aren’t a very good basketball program. IIWII, at least for now. It’ll remain that way for the foreseeable future, barring some kind of major shakeup or a massive infusion of cash.

we have no idea whether the missing of VT's 5th best player (maybe one of the best defensive players on the team) would result in wins. Too many variables to make that assumption.
