Pete's never liked small-ball. Imo, that cost us winning our SuperR vs Fla

Pretty sure that was his philosophy at KeenSt too. Please correct me if wrong. He's done a fantastic job here but that philosophy will limit our WS chances imo. I feel his teams dont even know how to sac bunt under pressure or hit to right field when needed. But obv he's elevated our program .. a great coach/recruiter

Yes, they are in some polls. I'm up in the air on them. They beat a really

They’ll compete well in Big South **
hokiepro • 03/02/25 06:20 PM ET
Radford has a much better coach now than they’ve had in quite a while.
RJHokie • 03/02/25 06:18 PM ET
Yeah, so we can poach more Cori McMillans. :-)**
laphroaig • 03/02/25 06:21 PM ET
True,.......
2hhoop3 • 03/02/25 09:30 PM ET
Yeah, that’s kinda interesting that she wasn’t highly recruited
RJHokie • 03/02/25 06:58 PM ET
We need to consistently have more than 5 hits
VAHokie89 • 03/02/25 05:40 PM ET
Starting lineup hitless
VT954 • 03/02/25 06:53 PM ET
Starting lineup hitless? What game did you watch?**

VT954 • 03/03/25 02:46 PM ET
That box score says our starters got 5 hits**

Amen to that 100%! Bombs are great, but table sitters are better!
PokieHokie • 03/02/25 08:55 PM ET
Our hitters are taught to have a slight upper cut when swinging in
Italian Stallion • 03/02/25 10:21 PM ET
That was my comment. Letting a lesser opponent hang around only gives them
Hokie_Forester • 03/02/25 05:44 PM ET
Not too stressed about 1 game or even 2 this weekend
VAHokie89 • 03/02/25 06:02 PM ET
Very well said. I’ve seen this team play EVERY game this season.
VTChip • 03/02/25 06:18 PM ET
I liked Pete working on bunts and aggressive base running.
TomTurkey • 03/02/25 06:41 PM ET
Speed kills! **
PokieHokie • 03/02/25 08:57 PM ET
Yeah they’re definitely talented & fun to watch
hokiepro • 03/02/25 06:22 PM ET
I agree. Just nice to not have to worry about a game like today's. **
Hokie_Forester • 03/02/25 06:17 PM ET
Don't want to worry about games like today? Don't be a fan. Games happen.**
laphroaig • 03/02/25 06:20 PM ET
I agree games happen but I'm not the only one that looks at Radford and
Hokie_Forester • 03/02/25 07:15 PM ET
Knew you will always be a Hokie. Radford is under new and exceptional
laphroaig • 03/02/25 07:39 PM ET
The coaching by Coach ***an was exceptional today!
PokieHokie • 03/02/25 09:06 PM ET
Agree w your sentiment, but 2 clunkers in 3 days would’ve been a bit much.
HolidayInnHokie • 03/02/25 06:49 PM ET
Hang in there Holiday. See you at TSP?**
laphroaig • 03/02/25 07:41 PM ET
Yes sir, later in the month. **
