We just got a commitment from a very good 6’2” forward (yes 6’2”, VT has
Her listed at that height). 6’6” forwards with the skills of Kitley are very rare. Many 6’5”+ centers just don’t pan out because they don’t have the skills or athletic men required for D1 basketball. VT will prob get another post player, but it won’t necessary be a starter (prob won’t be), and doesn’t need to be 6’6”, 6’3” or 6’4” should be big enough if they are athletic and skilled. I think people were disappointed we didn’t get ADR, but honestly I think Freelon is the better player, has much more experience and more polished. VT needed 2 post players and had to be smart about how they used NIL, which is why I think we didn’t ADR and maybe others. I do think they’ll get a quality backup, and VT also has 2 4 star freshman forwards (Jenkins and Trent) coming in.
