I predict you are wrong ....

The team has exceeded my expectations this year. Then again I never begin a season in any sport with expectations. If through thick and thin everyone in Hokie Nation shows her and her teams lots of love, it will be difficult to leave. I suspect Kenny's ambition was written right across his face.

Ole Miss KY game is getting hot for anyone interested
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 08:20 PM ET
Reminded me of the Hokies game against Baylor
VANESSAHOKIE • 02/11/25 04:22 PM ET
Yikes. Brooks sort of threw former VT commit, Amelia Hassett under the bus
VTBoar • 02/11/25 12:37 PM ET
Well before the next transfer portal opening .
Reston Hokie2 • 02/11/25 05:56 PM ET
Yeah big time threw her under the bus. Seems pissed at her.
VANESSAHOKIE • 02/11/25 04:28 PM ET
Yeah, that’s something the coach needs to say to the player, not the press.
BEST2VT • 02/11/25 08:52 PM ET
Don’t remember that speech ever from Kenny**
`lag • 02/11/25 04:07 PM ET
That’s not sort of. That is throwing**
Stork • 02/11/25 02:48 PM ET
Time for Amelia Hassett and Clara Silva to come back to VT next year.Just
HokieBrazil • 02/11/25 02:19 PM ET
Come “back”? They never got here
hokiepro • 02/12/25 11:01 AM ET
Didn't they have at least an on-campus visit?We will never get Strack back
HokieBrazil • 02/12/25 12:55 PM ET
Maybe. Wonder if he “adopts” Hassett when Georgia leaves
hokiepro • 02/12/25 01:43 PM ET
Hey Amelia, you can become "our" Aussie! ❤️❤️❤️🤪**
`lag • 02/12/25 08:30 AM ET
I second that ...**
Reston Hokie2 • 02/11/25 06:00 PM ET
That’s one way to treat your players. Don’t take any responsibility
maroonhiker • 02/11/25 01:25 PM ET
He wanted an SEC fanbase...and I look forward to him experiencing all one
I love VT! • 02/11/25 03:45 PM ET
Yep feeling the pressure of his new job
`lag • 02/11/25 04:09 PM ET
He's a cult leader, not a coach.**
NokieHokie • 02/11/25 01:36 PM ET
Thanks for the link. So much there!
Va AandM • 02/11/25 01:13 PM ET
That would take smart coaching. Something he has always lacked.**
NokieHokie • 02/11/25 01:20 PM ET
Brooks has never had a clue.**
NokieHokie • 02/11/25 01:13 PM ET
He doesn't know [how to teach or motivate].
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 12:48 PM ET
I do think, as I've read here, assistants probably did teach the Queens.**
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 01:15 PM ET
Nope. CKB is more involved in individual player development than . .
MidloHokie • 02/11/25 02:01 PM ET
That is similar to the way I have described him He is like the
SHPHOKIE • 02/11/25 10:07 PM ET
Thanks for the clarification, i.e., correction
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 02:03 PM ET
Sure sounds like it with that “no clue” statement.
RJHokie • 02/11/25 12:52 PM ET
I'm so glad CKB left to make room for CMD**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 09:44 PM ET
CKB was a great recruiter. CMD is a better game coach**
UpperQuad • 02/11/25 11:38 AM ET
Before Liz, he was a good recruiter. That changed things for him**
hokietom87 • 02/11/25 11:59 AM ET
He was smart enough to recruit Raven. **
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 12:54 PM ET
CMD should join the snowball fight on the Drillfield like
Kid Rock • 02/11/25 11:19 AM ET
Yes !!!!! She brings Sunshine !! Hokie Spirit..
JRHokie • 02/11/25 09:05 AM ET
Agree. No malice towards KB, but MD=great coach. **
133182Hokie • 02/11/25 07:22 AM ET
VT is just a means to an end for either of them.
Tank • 02/10/25 09:56 PM ET
I would think she would stay at VT if money was matched unless ND called.**
Maroon Unit • 02/11/25 01:27 PM ET
You can be ambitious and still expect to stay somewhere for a while
`lag • 02/11/25 04:12 PM ET
Now that is a really negative view of the world.
Reston Hokie2 • 02/11/25 09:31 AM ET
Not meant to be negative...simply realistic.
Tank • 02/11/25 11:23 AM ET
I predict you are wrong .... ◄
Reston Hokie2 • 02/11/25 05:34 PM ET
Okay. I predict I'm right. I hope I'm wrong.
Tank • 02/11/25 05:49 PM ET
If she has the success that the big boys want her it means that she has
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 02:40 PM ET
Like CKB?
Tank • 02/11/25 03:29 PM ET
CKB is not young**
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 07:20 PM ET
He is to me! : )**
Tank • 02/12/25 12:24 PM ET
Probably not wrong, but premature. X+Y=? for the possibilities. **
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 11:28 AM ET
Speculating is what we do here.**
Tank • 02/11/25 11:30 AM ET
Sure, but not going to give it a thought now, though.
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 11:32 AM ET
I think she stays longer term **
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 11:05 AM ET
And then there is the ND job....**
UTPr0sim • 02/11/25 11:57 AM ET
Someday, no doubt. THAT coach ain't going nowhere soon.
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 12:51 PM ET
That one isn’t opening soon **
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 12:51 PM ET
No, there isn't the ND job. That position is occupied, and there will no
King of Hokies • 02/11/25 12:39 PM ET
If she gets poached so be it,that means she left the program in good shape**
HokieBrazil • 02/11/25 07:52 AM ET
Indeed, fans can't hope/aspire to be mediocre due to fear of
VT757to276 • 02/11/25 08:41 AM ET
Pete thinks he can grab the big enchilada at VT.
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 11:16 AM ET
How do you know that VT is not her ultimate goal? Did she
Blueboy • 02/10/25 11:44 PM ET
It's simple an opinion...but you already knew that.**
Tank • 02/11/25 11:24 AM ET
Let’s start worrying. If not ND, who’ll replace Geno ;j
Va AandM • 02/11/25 06:12 AM ET
good Lord. Can you all quit being such negative whiney babies. Live 4 today
j9hokie • 02/10/25 10:25 PM ET
Why the overreaction? I'm just being realistic.
Tank • 02/11/25 11:28 AM ET
There were absurd fans on her first day saying she loves VT and won't leave**
NokieHokie • 02/11/25 11:34 AM ET
He wasn't being negative. Nor was he whining. That's actually you.**
NokieHokie • 02/10/25 10:27 PM ET
No, no, no**
Tech76G • 02/11/25 07:26 AM ET
But, for now, she's our HC**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 10:14 PM ET
The good old Kenny Brooks special,collapsing in the 4th with no adjustments**
HokieBrazil • 02/10/25 09:01 PM ET
No one listened when he coached here. Maroon & Orange glasses.
va.tech • 02/11/25 10:50 AM ET
Many of us called it,but those last 2 years blinded most.It even showed up
HokieBrazil • 02/11/25 11:22 AM ET
You weren't allowed to criticize him when he was here. Even before the Liz/
NokieHokie • 02/11/25 11:15 AM ET
His only adjustment is to give the ball to Amoore and have her run
Italian Stallion • 02/10/25 09:04 PM ET
They still have Texas, LSU, South Carolina, Tennessee left to play.**
Italian Stallion • 02/10/25 09:00 PM ET
The SECs murder's row.
VANESSAHOKIE • 02/11/25 04:26 PM ET
They’ll go 1-3 or 0-4**
hokiepro • 02/11/25 06:36 AM ET
Yeah thinking they upset 1 of them.
VANESSAHOKIE • 02/11/25 09:33 PM ET
Those teams are deep and athletic. They will be lucky to win 1.**
Italian Stallion • 02/12/25 03:49 PM ET
Wow, that is gauntlet schedule. #3 TX, #4 SC-e, #5 LSU, #15 TN.
carhokies • 02/11/25 12:12 AM ET
Give the SEC credit, all the better teams play each other at the end of
`lag • 02/10/25 09:16 PM ET
They play Texas on Thursday.**
dubnic2roxy1 • 02/10/25 09:03 PM ET
And still USCe**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 09:14 PM ET
And LSU**
HokieHeartNSoul • 02/10/25 09:28 PM ET
Another 4th quarter special by KB
Ship PA Hokie • 02/10/25 08:59 PM ET
Re: Amoore. I don't care one way or the other.
Atlee Hokie • 02/10/25 09:57 PM ET
She probably got 5x the NIL than if she had stayed**
Jethro Tull • 02/10/25 10:19 PM ET
No, she is international student who cannot by law receive NILs in US.
carhokies • 02/11/25 12:44 PM ET
omg. Not this again. **
I love VT! • 02/11/25 03:49 PM ET
If you don't think she's being well-compensated in Lexington . . .
MidloHokie • 02/11/25 02:05 PM ET
I'm stating US Immigration laws. And have friend works on NILs at a college
carhokies • 02/11/25 03:26 PM ET
Has that "friend" explained why academically ineligible no longer exists? **
Jethro Tull • 02/11/25 04:07 PM ET
Or upped her game coached by a5’7” Naismith award PG/former WNBA PRO
Va AandM • 02/11/25 07:36 AM ET
If she stayed our kids would not have played. We got 3 years for her 1
DGHOKIE • 02/10/25 10:07 PM ET
Her alleged toxicity would have festered. Clash with CMD might have been..
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 11:21 AM ET
I hadn’t heard about her toxicity until recently. Interesting. Would love
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 02:41 PM ET
I knew she had a strong personality but would like to know more, also
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 02:46 PM ET
True dat**
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 12:52 PM ET
Loved her and appreciated her talent and drive. But gone.**
TomTurkey • 02/11/25 12:57 PM ET
I agree
delmarva hokie • 02/11/25 10:32 AM ET
Certainly a paradox, but I agree with that. If VT was ready to make a run
`lag • 02/10/25 10:56 PM ET
Yeah, that’s a good point. **
RJHokie • 02/10/25 10:14 PM ET
One, maybe two of our current guards would probably have portaled out and
DGHOKIE • 02/10/25 10:20 PM ET
He’ll beam some gal in with NIL$$$. **
Va AandM • 02/11/25 05:51 AM ET
Thought about that. But he could lose continuity. We’ll see. Maybe he has a
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 06:53 AM ET
Lexi or an identified transfer? **
Va AandM • 02/11/25 07:30 AM ET
Didn’t think Lexi was a PG. we’ll see **
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 11:03 AM ET
Lani was a MD portal anyway, right?**
`lag • 02/10/25 11:20 PM ET
She was and may not have come if GA was still here **
DGHOKIE • 02/11/25 06:55 AM ET
Tall but slow. That's the tradeoff**
j9hokie • 02/10/25 09:05 PM ET
I'll root for GA in the WNBA. 60/40 she's not drafted.**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 09:01 PM ET
She's in all the MOCK Drafts.
VANESSAHOKIE • 02/11/25 04:19 PM ET
Oh I think she will be drafted. Make a roster? Dunno. Wish her well next yr**
j9hokie • 02/10/25 09:06 PM ET
she might luck out with two new teams coming on line**
`lag • 02/10/25 09:19 PM ET
Ok, that. 60/40**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 09:13 PM ET
Ole Miss had 54 rebounds, 27 offensive and 27 defensive.
RJHokie • 02/10/25 08:57 PM ET
Looks like he still hasn't learned how to coach. What a shame. **
Blueboy • 02/10/25 08:57 PM ET
OLE MISS DID IT! Man, they were scrappy.**
j9hokie • 02/10/25 08:53 PM ET
Nice W**
VT757to276 • 02/10/25 08:52 PM ET
Strack playing 3? Seems high post.**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 08:31 PM ET
Strack with 8 blocks. 👀**
Will StewartAdmin • 02/10/25 08:40 PM ET
She good :>)**
tallahasseehokie • 02/11/25 11:07 AM ET
Strack also shoots alot of 3's.
VANESSAHOKIE • 02/11/25 09:37 PM ET
KY record**
`lag • 02/10/25 11:20 PM ET
UK has scored 15 pts entire 2nd half
hokiepro • 02/10/25 08:31 PM ET
Why I'm watching. Will players save his ass? **
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 08:32 PM ET
Love to watch Georgia wheel and deal.**
Italian Stallion • 02/10/25 09:05 PM ET
I think when GA graduates, KB will have some struggles. Really wishing good
j9hokie • 02/10/25 08:56 PM ET
This, this and this**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 08:59 PM ET
not tonight**
mrknowitall • 02/10/25 08:55 PM ET
Nope. Lexi Blue didn’t play; Silva barely saw the floor
hokiepro • 02/10/25 08:55 PM ET
Coach Duffy should invite them to Blacksburg**
UpperQuad • 02/11/25 08:47 AM ET
So he essentially played 6. He hasn't learned
hokietom87 • 02/10/25 09:15 PM ET
He’s not developing the Fr
hokiepro • 02/10/25 09:18 PM ET
And look what he did to Micheaux. Basically wasted a year of her
Italian Stallion • 02/10/25 09:26 PM ET
Noticed Strack is not his 5. Using Kitley's moves. Maybe as she matures.
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 08:57 PM ET
Very different from Kitley. Stronger, scrappier, but less finesse.
j9hokie • 02/10/25 09:09 PM ET
Yep Kitley has the prettiest jumper for a big I've ever seen in WBB
tallahasseehokie • 02/11/25 11:11 AM ET
I feel the SEC refs just let them play and there would be twice as many
Kid Rock • 02/10/25 08:27 PM ET
Yeah, player "plowing" Amoore with her free hand.**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 08:28 PM ET
Strack over the back if live ball.**
TomTurkey • 02/10/25 08:44 PM ET
I am watching. GO OLE MISS!!!
