How many former top 100 recruits has VT or Duffy got from the portal?

Seems like we would want to retain the ones we have. They aren't easily replaced by VT.

Looks like Coach Duffy will have to build team out of portal
BAMAHOKIE • 03/25/25 10:04 PM ET
We haven't lost anyone, including White to NIL. **

Seems like the model for sustained higher performance is to

"Build a team out of portal." She's returning the majority of her roster!**
David CunninghamAdmin • 03/26/25 10:39 AM ET
Down to almost half of last year's roster... 6 out of 11?**
VAHokie89 • 03/26/25 01:03 PM ET
Those numbers don’t necessarily tell the entire story with 2 graduating
BackInTheBurg • 03/26/25 01:59 PM ET
Agreed. Just acknowleding that it is barely the majority**
VAHokie89 • 03/26/25 02:14 PM ET
Hopefully the rest of last year’s team returns.**

Is that a good thing? I think he might be indicating we need to get better
vatechcowpatty • 03/26/25 11:39 AM ET
Post play is where we needed the most improvement and we have 2 post player
Hokiekid1 • 03/26/25 12:33 PM ET
Sure, but it's different to say VT needs to add pieces rather than rebuild.**
David CunninghamAdmin • 03/26/25 12:24 PM ET
Thank you! The fan hysteria over transfer news just baffles me.**
vtbball80 • 03/26/25 11:04 AM ET
I have not seen a lot of hysteria for the women's transfers**
VAHokie89 • 03/26/25 01:03 PM ET
There is some hand wringing - small roster, need to hit the portal hard...
vtbball80 • 03/26/25 02:30 PM ET
There’s definitely some that are approaching it. **
Stork • 03/26/25 02:38 PM ET
a lot of players in the portal were bench warmers,**

Not sure that there is hysteria. I see excitement and the
VTBAMA • 03/26/25 12:02 PM ET
I interpreted your "have to build" as hand wringing - sorry if I got that..
vtbball80 • 03/26/25 02:26 PM ET
Yeah, again, she was taking one portal a year at Marquette...

Things are changing though with more mass exodus occuring in the world
VAHokie89 • 03/26/25 01:04 PM ET
Quite a difference between Big East and ACC in women’s hoops. And what was

Plenty of very good guards hopefully coming back. And an excellent pg

its not black and white
1947Sunbowl • 03/26/25 07:56 AM ET
Why do you say that? I’m pretty sure none of this is a surprise to Coach
BackInTheBurg • 03/25/25 10:17 PM ET
Odds are she knew this last year when she went with 11 only
VAHokie89 • 03/25/25 10:14 PM ET
Definitely. She’s got this. I expect a few big splash portal additions.**
Stork • 03/26/25 04:11 AM ET
Everyone's hoping/assuming ....
VAHokie89 • 03/26/25 10:56 AM ET
Just hope we don’t have any splash withdrawals **
DGHOKIE • 03/26/25 06:52 AM ET
We don’t have any players currently that we can’t live without.
Stork • 03/26/25 07:42 AM ET
I would prefer that we don’t lose any. Especially six of them **
DGHOKIE • 03/26/25 09:31 AM ET
Disagree. Don’t wanna live without Baker, Nelson, Wentzel, Suffern,
Durham Hokie • 03/26/25 08:23 AM ET
Wells coming along nicely too**
j9hokie • 03/26/25 02:20 PM ET
While I want to keep them, everyone is replaceable
VAHokie89 • 03/26/25 11:00 AM ET
Totally disagree with this sentiment. I kind of understand what you’re im-
BackInTheBurg • 03/26/25 11:22 AM ET
Like i said, it is also about who would replace them

hokeyhokie • 03/26/25 11:10 AM ET
Don’t want to loose them, but none are in the category of Amoore or Strack

We didn’t lose them to the portal. Kenny took them. Portal was the Vehicle **

I’ll leave you alone.

Same. Though would not be surprised

There’s one that wouldn’t surprise me, but I suspect would shock many. And
