Sofie

We need Sofie to start making 3's and that will change how teams can play us.

Let's talk about the OOC schedule
King of Hokies • 12/11/25 11:17 AM ET
Maybe the thought {although flawed} is to pad our record to get to 20 wins**
mrknowitall • 12/13/25 11:09 AM ET
It is pretty standard to play cupcakes. Playing Iowa, Michigan last year
VAHokie89 • 12/14/25 11:52 AM ET
Yeah, but you need to pad the record by playing #180, not #360. That way
King of Hokies • 12/13/25 11:12 AM ET

nflhokie • 12/13/25 04:06 PM ET
Agree, but I believe the mask is an issue now.
RJHokie • 12/13/25 04:12 PM ET
She can't play more unless she turns it over less, defends better, and
King of Hokies • 12/13/25 10:19 PM ET
She’s got two more gimme non-conference games this month.
RJHokie • 12/13/25 10:31 PM ET
came off the bench on a bad Perdue team,don't expect a lot**
mrknowitall • 12/13/25 10:52 PM ET
Was not aware of that.
RJHokie • 12/13/25 10:55 PM ET
She has played very, very poorly when she has gotten minutes. I mean, like
King of Hokies • 12/13/25 10:36 PM ET
I think she is just too slow
HokieR • 12/14/25 04:17 PM ET
Like I said, she’s got opportunities in the next 2 to 3 games.
RJHokie • 12/13/25 10:39 PM ET
i''ll get blowback on this,but discipline is on the coaches**
mrknowitall • 12/13/25 11:20 AM ET
It's a joint effort. Duffy is telling them about it, for sure. **
King of Hokies • 12/13/25 11:53 AM ET
that's true,let's hope they get it figured out before we get into acc play**
mrknowitall • 12/13/25 03:13 PM ET
Thank you. I've been thinking the same thing.
Atlee Hokie • 12/13/25 10:49 AM ET
How far in advance is the schedule set? **
JHokieD • 12/13/25 08:03 AM ET
It varies. Usually about 1 year in advance. But that's not the issue.
King of Hokies • 12/13/25 10:10 AM ET
It’s bad; but where did the 400&500s come from? There’s only 365 teams **
hokiepro • 12/14/25 07:58 AM ET
This early season schedule, with some exceptions like JMU
1977hokie • 12/13/25 01:23 PM ET
Perhaps we aren’t paying enough to get better teams to come to our place
Hokie`79 • 12/14/25 08:45 AM ET
I think you could very likely be right
1977hokie • 12/14/25 09:09 AM ET
What about scheduling some more home and home with more regional teams like
Hokie`79 • 12/14/25 04:11 PM ET
They are not developing playing these teams. Have you watched the games?
King of Hokies • 12/13/25 03:14 PM ET
oh yeah watched them all, didn't say it was working**
1977hokie • 12/13/25 08:53 PM ET
Yeah hopefully
JerryLopez5 • 12/13/25 11:18 AM ET
Maybe she figure with a fairly new roster she wanted some easy games to
SarahVTHokie24 • 12/12/25 07:51 PM ET
But a whole preseason worth?**
Atlee Hokie • 12/13/25 10:51 AM ET
Right. 2 of the first 4 or so would do that. But we're still playing
King of Hokies • 12/12/25 08:55 PM ET
Bad shooting,poor passing,turnovers and winning by 30 **
mrknowitall • 12/12/25 07:42 AM ET
You did miss our non-tournament game (L) against JMU (8-3, Massey 59).**
nvpbrown • 12/12/25 01:23 AM ET
No, I didn't. Why is this so hard? I listed the really bad teams we've
King of Hokies • 12/12/25 06:32 AM ET
I'm not disputing your SOS complaints, but you did leave out JMU.
nvpbrown • 12/12/25 09:13 AM ET
So, just one team with a pulse, and we lost to them.**
Atlee Hokie • 12/13/25 10:53 AM ET
It's not an SOS complaint. **
King of Hokies • 12/12/25 10:04 AM ET
Sure it is -- it's just not the usual "will make our resume look bad" one.
nvpbrown • 12/12/25 05:31 PM ET
We were 1st team out of the NCAAs last year
Kid Rock • 12/11/25 09:23 PM ET
We won’t miss the NCAA
JerryLopez5 • 12/11/25 10:38 PM ET
As a bubble team we absolutely would be left out due to really bad OOC SoS
hokiepro • 12/12/25 06:45 PM ET
Certifiably insane?**
Hokie`79 • 12/14/25 08:49 AM ET
With a very weak ooc it’s nearly impossible to quality wins**
Durham Hokie • 12/12/25 06:13 AM ET
Not necessarily
JerryLopez5 • 12/12/25 10:27 AM ET
That's what I'm concerned about. We are playing very undisciplined and
King of Hokies • 12/11/25 10:57 PM ET
We didn’t get away with it vs JMU or BYU or Duke **
hokiepro • 12/13/25 09:09 AM ET
Right. And we won't get away with it vs even moderately good ACC teams. In
King of Hokies • 12/13/25 10:24 AM ET
This is exactly what I was saying as early as game 2 or 3 when we went so
hokiepro • 12/13/25 12:24 PM ET
Can't get better playing these type teams..
JRHokie • 12/12/25 05:56 AM ET
if we want to get challenged schedule someone out of the penal league**
mrknowitall • 12/12/25 07:59 PM ET
The back ups & freshman are. Maybe time to play them more. **
Stork • 12/12/25 09:40 AM ET
Called Practice...
JRHokie • 12/12/25 09:44 AM ET
We have men practice players as well. You get better by playing against
King of Hokies • 12/13/25 10:26 AM ET
A high school friend of mine (VT grad) was one of the practice
RJHokie • 12/13/25 10:37 AM ET
Nothing beats real competition.And I would like to add here, the Slovenian
Stork • 12/12/25 09:47 AM ET
The point is we are not playing real competition. Every one of those
King of Hokies • 12/12/25 11:18 AM ET
Real competition..
JRHokie • 12/12/25 11:12 AM ET
Yep. That's my point. Our team really needs to get better, and in
King of Hokies • 12/12/25 06:34 AM ET
Totally agree..
JRHokie • 12/12/25 07:33 AM ET
Like I said previously in response to original post
JerryLopez5 • 12/11/25 11:06 PM ET
I don't give a crap about in state teams. They do nothing for us. And the
King of Hokies • 12/11/25 11:08 PM ET
Well Richmond is ranked
JerryLopez5 • 12/11/25 11:17 PM ET
That would be a challenge since we all know you can't run on Richmond.
nvpbrown • 12/12/25 01:25 AM ET
Read my post again. I'm very much not saying we need to play more teams in
King of Hokies • 12/11/25 11:24 PM ET
Hmm I'm not seeing even 9-9 with this team in the ACC. FWIW.**
UTPr0sim • 12/11/25 09:36 PM ET
There are some pretty bad teams in the ACC. Pitt, BC, SMU, Wake, GT
King of Hokies • 12/11/25 11:06 PM ET
Yeah, fwiw Massey is predicting us to win...
Gobbler-100 • 12/13/25 12:45 AM ET
This is the way (Mandalorian)> You are right but it has always been like
VAHokie89 • 12/11/25 09:18 PM ET
I didn't ask for a gauntlet. Read my post again. **
King of Hokies • 12/11/25 10:52 PM ET
It is interesting hie the word tune up
VAHokie89 • 12/12/25 07:20 AM ET
And I didn;t suggest gauntlet.**
VAHokie89 • 12/11/25 11:16 PM ET
I partly agree
JerryLopez5 • 12/11/25 04:23 PM ET
Do you think the coaches/players ever even look at these boards?**
j9hokie • 12/11/25 03:50 PM ET
I hope not!**
Hokie`79 • 12/11/25 05:19 PM ET
totally agree,look what happened when we played Duke after weak schedule**
mrknowitall • 12/11/25 02:33 PM ET
Good post. Agree**
Durham Hokie • 12/11/25 01:53 PM ET
Game last night good for bench
BAMAHOKIE • 12/11/25 01:28 PM ET
Exactly right! I cannot add anything to it. why do they do it?**
pine52x • 12/11/25 12:44 PM ET
Must say, I totally agree. If we want to be be big time we have to prep.**
j9hokie • 12/11/25 11:50 AM ET
I hope that CMD has gotten the message, this was "HER schedule."**
George Baylor • 12/11/25 03:46 PM ET
Yes, it's Duffy's schedule. In the same way that Seth Greenberg had to own
King of Hokies • 12/11/25 07:58 PM ET
And not offering a scholarship to Curry. LOL**
UTPr0sim • 12/11/25 09:37 PM ET
Young team with unknowns. Probably wanted to test many rotations, BUT
j9hokie • 12/11/25 03:48 PM ET
I think next year’s out of conference schedule will be better
RJHokie • 12/11/25 04:37 PM ET
I didn’t think Clemson schedule is much different from ours
JerryLopez5 • 12/11/25 04:29 PM ET
At least cut out everyone below 250. Try to schedule around 80-249 teams**
