I agree...

JW hiring Wolff was a real low point for the history of the program. Not diminishing the hole that Duffy has to dig out of. When a popular coach leaves and takes all of the players and recruits that he wants, that's a tough start. She's done an amazing job. But JW and Wolff had the PROGRAM in the toilet. Players today seem to go more with the coach than with the PROGRAM these days. A lot of recruits that were looking at Virginia Tech are now looking at Kentucky, because Kenny is the draw. Duffy is going to have to recruit based on her implementation of the program. It will take awhile.

CMD has won more ACC conference games
ColWilliamFleming • 02/02/25 07:22 PM ET
Yep, but its early to pin a medal on CMD. She is playing with mainly Kenny
UTPr0sim • 02/02/25 10:10 PM ET
I'd pin it on her...TODAY! Great job thus far and future looks strong!!**
4ThirtyTwoHokies • 02/03/25 02:11 PM ET
I think her best recruiting job so far is convincing these players to stay**
delmarva hokie • 02/03/25 01:51 PM ET
She is getting more out of these players than KB did. She has made them
DGHOKIE • 02/03/25 02:08 PM ET
I agree
delmarva hokie • 02/03/25 02:19 PM ET
Muffet suggested her for ACC COY. Biased? Yes!
TomTurkey • 02/03/25 12:25 PM ET
So now we like Muffet? ; )**
IB4TECH • 02/04/25 08:18 PM ET
One Thing Was Clear....Ol’ Muffet loathed KB... Her Instincts Maybe Right
vtchem75 • 02/03/25 03:43 PM ET
Well, I believe most of the Hokie fan base loathes Brooks as well, that is
Italian Stallion • 02/03/25 04:40 PM ET
He left town without a word. Not very professional really
vtchem75 • 02/03/25 06:26 PM ET
She doing a great job **
Durham Hokie • 02/03/25 06:38 PM ET
no coach was left with so much uncertainly that she had to deal with**
mrknowitall • 02/03/25 01:46 PM ET
More than just biased I think..
`lag • 02/03/25 01:29 PM ET
Think it will be better or worse with players who are skilled for her style
Va AandM • 02/03/25 09:36 AM ET
Rose, Carleigh, Carys, Matilda are playing much better than under Brooks.
Durham Hokie • 02/03/25 07:56 AM ET
Agree. But that is expected add’l year experience**
HokieDelNorte • 02/14/25 09:11 AM ET
Rose and Carys are night-and-day different (better) players under Duffy.
King of Hokies • 02/03/25 09:28 AM ET
She's playing with his cast-offs. I think she's doing a remarkable job.
King of Hokies • 02/02/25 10:24 PM ET
high school coaches will notice too,may convince seniors to consider coming**
mrknowitall • 02/03/25 10:32 AM ET
Remarkable job: YES. Cast-offs: NO!**
George Baylor • 02/03/25 07:53 AM ET
Uh well yeah sort of…he didn’t want them to go with him
hokiepro • 02/03/25 09:38 AM ET
Don't assume that because someone is playing for VT this yr that it
I love VT! • 02/03/25 09:48 AM ET
I'd even say some likely would've transferred had Kenny stayed.**
vthokieq • 02/03/25 10:27 AM ET
Suffren for one.**
Italian Stallion • 02/03/25 10:32 AM ET
I'm not sure Carliegh or Rose would've stayed either.**
vthokieq • 02/03/25 10:34 AM ET
Agree…Strack and Georgia would have played the lion’s share of minutes
WestEndHokie39 • 02/03/25 10:58 AM ET
Plus there seemed to be a little friction w/Carleigh and her dad with Kenny
`lag • 02/03/25 02:00 PM ET
Yes, and these players are true Hokies!**
Italian Stallion • 02/03/25 10:09 AM ET
Eck, Wentzel, Nelson were not cast offs.**
Durham Hokie • 02/03/25 07:48 AM ET
Ekh**
TomTurkey • 02/03/25 10:44 AM ET
KB tried to recruit Matilda and Carleigh to KY and they declined. They
Kid Rock • 02/03/25 06:17 AM ET
Is that on video somewhere? Be interested to see that..
`lag • 02/03/25 05:17 PM ET
Neither would get many minutes for Kentucky this year**
ACCJesse • 02/03/25 01:11 PM ET
Ekh better than Haslet, Carly better than Kensucky's other guard**
Italian Stallion • 02/03/25 04:31 PM ET
Correct, but he didn't want anyone else. Again, I'm not disparaging the
King of Hokies • 02/03/25 09:26 AM ET
Yep...
ACCJesse • 02/03/25 05:59 AM ET
THANK YOU....
JRHokie • 02/03/25 05:36 AM ET
NOT cast offs, student athletes that chose to remain loyal to VT**
ombandit • 02/02/25 10:30 PM ET
Most of whom he didn't want. I don't call them that to disparage them,
King of Hokies • 02/02/25 10:36 PM ET
Take the knee.**
thunar • 02/03/25 01:35 PM ET
I think she will be good, BUT and its a big BUT, I'm real interested in
UTPr0sim • 02/02/25 10:26 PM ET
Huh? She has a career 0.700 record as a head coach. She's been good
King of Hokies • 02/02/25 10:33 PM ET
And he wasn't utilizing them due to the dynamic duo
TomTurkey • 02/03/25 01:21 PM ET
100%. But the program that Kenny inherited was much worse. Much worse**
King of Hokies • 02/02/25 09:12 PM ET
I agree... ◄
ACCJesse • 02/03/25 06:05 AM ET
Are you kidding?
ColWilliamFleming • 02/02/25 11:16 PM ET
Didn’t Hicks leave with some controversy?**
JHokieD • 02/03/25 08:50 PM ET
Yes that team was pretty good. They started the season 13-0 through
Italian Stallion • 02/02/25 11:51 PM ET
Yep he proved that year to me that
hokiepro • 02/03/25 09:41 AM ET
Are you kidding? First of all Magarity and Hicks were very good. Cook was
King of Hokies • 02/02/25 11:31 PM ET
Well that "disaster" went 22-12. Now you're not making any sense.**
Italian Stallion • 02/02/25 11:55 PM ET
"program" -- reading is not that hard**
King of Hokies • 02/03/25 12:04 AM ET
A "disaster" program does not go 22-12. Ever! LOL. I think you need to
Italian Stallion • 02/03/25 12:13 AM ET
You need to try to understand the difference between team and program.
King of Hokies • 02/03/25 12:58 AM ET
Nice try but lame at best. Now you denigrate my reading comprehension and
