....Let's Go!!!

HOKIES!

My wife takes the kids and leaves the house while I watch my Hokie games.........nuff said

Most of college basketball looks shakey FAM?

Sidebar but really - who is the best team in the country? Kansas loses to Tennessee who lost to colorado who lost to grambling....UNC hasn't looked that good, Duke doesn't look dominant, Michigan isn't that good this year....feel like it's going to be a big parody season, gotta get as many wins before January 1 as we can

Too early to tell. Looks like it's gonna be another year with no clear "great" teams. As much as I hate to say it though, UVA looks to be back to their top form

Hate to say it but LOLUVA has been the best looking team so far but Gonzaga will be there all year. They were just out of sorts all night against Texas but I expect them to finish with 4 or fewer losses.

It's Arizona right now. UVA is very good too for sure, but that Arizona Creighton win to end Maui was impressive (even though Creighton caught up late), got a very good win over SDSU as well and killed a decent Ohio State. I'm very high on Arizona, Creighton, Houston, and Beard has Texas rolling. Uconn and Maryland look pretty good too, but not sure they're elite yet.

This stretch of games we have coming up is gonna be rough if we play like we have for the last week, Fam

Mutts, Pedulla and Kidd came to play. Hunter played defense. We squeaked by a team we should have buried. But we got the W. Bring on Minnesota.

Doesn't matter if it's cake or pie as long as it's chocolate.

Beat one team from Charleston, FAM

Yes,that's the Hokie Bird riding a camel. Why'd you ask?

Fam, it's a W. But what does CMY do with Basile? I'd hate to watch Bacot back down on Basile.

Hey we won one more game today than #17 UNC football and #1 UNC basketball combined

This is my school
This is home

Posted this in the game thread....

The Hokies had issues at the beginning of last season and CMY made the adjustments and coached his crew and they responded in kind. From what I see thus far, he has to see these newbies play a bit to see what he's got that practices alone won't fully show. The Classic started to provide this, as well as this game. For starters, thinking Basilly needs to come off the bench. Kidd gets the nod and plays the interior. Two main reasons, he will be open for the dish when Mutts drives or posts up when double teamed. He will also collapse the D and give Catoor, Maddox and Pedulla open looks (that they need to start hitting more of and they will). Though Basilly can hit the 3's, that's not what we need him for primarily. Lastly, he should provide enough interior presence to aid in rebounding.

The team looks much better on both sides of the court with Kidd and Mutts playing together. Basile and Poteat do not look ACC-caliber. The former too weak, the latter too slow.

Yeah we needed a better showing in the transfer portal, i'm pretty disappointed with it. As you said, Basile and Poteat don't look acc ready. John Camden has barely earned any minutes and is injured again

Mutts lead the team in points,assists, blocks and rebounds!

Pumping the brakes on the basketball hype, not just because of this game. We'd be 6-1 (or better) playing these same teams last year... and this team is much more talented. Win the next 3 and I'll listen but currently don't see us any better than an average bubble team, unless things start clicking like the end of last season

FAM!

I found TKP after two rails from TOTS then walking back to my apartment and re-watching the 2012 Sugar Bowl. I woke up the next day with this username.

We have been ice cold from three the last two games. If we shoot our average, we run away from both teams. Cattoor and Maddox will return to form and this will be a very good team.

First Cassell Coliseum experience, and with the fam, FAM!

Everything seemed a little off - enter sandman wasn't timed to play through the chorus (abruptly stopped at the tip), no band, but exciting W!

Love the tkp swag and those million megawatt smiles fam!

ratcheted up the defense at the end, fam!

big guys have to play better inside D so the guards can overplay the perimeter. need Rodney Rice in the rotation and Darius to find his groove.

A win is a win is a win. FAM,.

7 games in... what do you do with this team? We will be a solid perimeter shooting team. We will be scrappy. We will be in a lot of tight games. But, this team also has some major defensive liabilities that I don't know how CMY can mitigate.

Basille is an elite outside shooter for a guy his size but he hasn't shown that he can do all the other things that we need from his position. Frankly, I'm not sure his offense can justify him starting or getting substantial PT because his defense and rebounding are atrocious. To me, Lynn Kidd needs more minutes and get him coached up. He isn't there on defense yet either but he does have the athleticism to keep up in the ACC if he can learn it.

It was damn good to be back in Cassell again, fam. Was also very surprised by the large turnout for a 8pm game on the day after Thanksgiving. I've been to break games before and they've been sparse but not this time.

Think it was football people?

Yep people that were already coming for Saturday with RV or hotel already reserved.

Got one of these. FAM!

If you're not sure if my comment warrants a "/s", it probably does.

I think the team really thinks the easiest way to the big dance is to win the ACCCG. It worked last year, amirite? CMY is challenging this squad to show improvement by getting the #8 or 9 seed to set an even bigger record for winning the championship and punching our ticket. So right now they are just tweaking their quadrant #s to get close, but not all the way in.

I want to be exited that a win is a win, but my Apple Watch keeps alerting me that my BAC is too high for my heart rate...hospitalization is imminent.
