Freelon may be an upgrade...

Not that I think that Freelon is a better player than Micheaux, but I think Freelon is a better fit for Coach Duffy's playing style as she runs the floor really well. I'm guessing that Trent and Jenkins will be able to run the floor something that last year's freshmen bigs apparently couldn't do. As for yesterday's game, I think the goal was to try to play a game on short rest with the basic rotation as a means to test the stamina of the team. Tournament prep, I'd call it.

Lani White remains…
Rev.Zeke Vodka 11/17/25 12:19 PM ET
For me, White was also the best defensive player we lost from last year....

I hated to see Lani White leave.
delmarva hokie 11/17/25 01:50 PM ET

Oh no problem at all…I didn’t see it as directed at me

Freelon is more mobile, athletic than Micheaux. Daley is like Lani White

Love Rose but Freelon is a no doubt about it upgrade**
PFHokie 11/17/25 01:38 PM ET
Absolutely! Without her, we are middle of the ACC at best.**
HokieHeartNSoul 11/20/25 08:14 PM ET
To clarify...

Tech is better this year. Lack of size a problem

Especially when you shoot it at 27% from deep.**

Don't believe we will get to top of ACC w/ four guards & stretch forward**
