She is transferring from the Texas Tech team that defeated VT in the second round of the WBIT, so I'm guessing Duffy saw something she liked. Freelon had seven points, six rebounds, and two steals in that game.

This made me immediately think of when VT picked up Taylor Soule. She was a better scorer at BC than Freelon was at TT, but what Soule really brought was speed, athleticism, and physicality which were things that team desperately needed. Until proven otherwise, I have faith in CMD to identify the pieces she needs and if Freelon can fit the bill as an upper level defender or a rebounder then I'm less concerned about her PPG. VT always has a bunch of shooters.

I am hoping she will be awesome, but I have trouble getting excited for a guard/forward that averages less than 5 points a game.

Hopefully Duffy saw someone who was trapped in a system that did not fit her talent, and got her here by explaining that to her.

Soule brought toughness.
