Hokies defeated Oklahoma State by 10, Oklahoma State defeated NC State by 20, NC State defeated Duke by 8 which means Hokies defeat Duke by 38? The team needs to watch the OK State game film everyday and refresh their minds as to how good they can be. Hopefully the G Tech game gives them some confidence. Eric G can't be stopped,, but he needs help.

It was nice to see...
....some defense Saturday. That's the key, not the scoring.
Who's Gonna Step Up?
When is Eddie, Brown, Raines and CJ gonna step up and help Green? The only one playing consistent is Green. If Eddie and Brown could contribute 10-15 pts each per game, things would look different......
I'm hoping the win gets them out of their obvious funk. Lets get some swagger on the court!!
Eddie is starting to play a little bit better. I've been happy with how Raines and Barksdale have responded these last couple games but Brown is so terrible that he's holding us back.
Just imagine
What if VT had more than 7 scholarship players?
We would probably have a great chance at a tournament run... I still think this team could make some noise. Marshall Wood is coming back for the next game, and barring anymore serious injuries, I think we should have a pretty good squad. As others have said on the site, they just need to go back to the Iowa and Oklahoma State game film and see the effort they gave in those games. Effort equals success for us. I think Coach Johnson knows that, and that this team is capable of great things when they give their best effort, and that's precisely why he's benched Raines and Barksdale the last two games.
I have no doubt that Johnson would do the same to Erick Green if Green ever gave a less-than-stellar effort, which he would NEVER even let cross his mind.
Get either Brown or Eddie going like they were in the beginning of the year and this is a different team. They have been colder than a witch's tit lately.
