He was stating that it was no loss. Kayl came to VT when VT needed

players to replace those who left and those who committed and never arrived. She gave a good effort and played in difficult situations. I see no need to bad mouth her. Maybe those who leave read this board and believe they are under appreciated. As a VT grad, I appreciate anyone who wants to play for VT and thank them for wanting to be a part of the good guys. Therefore I too believe the statement was hateful about someone who was trying to help the team in any way, and that effort and dedication should be appreciated if you are truly a Hokie. I guess some of you cannot help yourself.

Before this past season I thought she did have that potential...

Disagree. But respect your thought.
MrFantastic! 03/26/26 10:38 AM ET
She’s very skilled an HIGH Bball IQ; she’s just not tall or athletic enough
hokiepro 03/26/26 10:53 AM ET
Agree mid-major, surely not a 4 or 5 with her size/speed. Best of luck.**
George Baylor 03/27/26 08:05 AM ET
agree she will be ok where she ends up **
MrFantastic! 03/26/26 11:41 AM ET
She'd get a steal or two or a block in games...
