I don't disagree w u on the worse shooting % and changes the last few games, now that teams have some film. And we need to adapt to that. And Lawal is injured.. But, the Duffy history is short and building and, 1.5 yrs in, she's done a good job rebuilding from what Kenny Brooks left us.
And to say Mike Young isn't a good coach?... OK, u be u. I completely disagree. His history here is anything but under the circumstances he's had to deal with. Context matters bro!
So ur the down vote for my opinion, huh?
This is what happens when you have a GM hiring a coach instead of coach hiring a GM.
I like the "ESECPN". Leg for you!
really good coaching
I 100% disagree with this. If both our bball teams had "really good coaching", they'd be playing at least their potential. The past few games, especially for the Lady Hokies, have been anything but. I will agree that we do have good coaches, but there is a lot of potential being wasted while other teams are reloading their benches with fewer on the court issues.
Now, I am not saying this to say abandon all hope, tune out, keep your wallets closed, etc. I just think it is viewing our current basketball situation through very O&M glasses to say we have really good coaching. Maybe things will turn around when we get to our "known opponents" in the conference schedule, but that is indicative of some sort of coaching problem: poor preparation, adjustments, scouting, etc.
Our teams are not bad...they are just playing badly at the moment. Just read back through the in-game threads...they are chock full of comments about how abysmal our shooting percentages, turnover rates, rebounding balances, etc are in the last few games.
EDIT: it hasn't helped that the Hokies have had to play against 3 extra players zebras most of the recent games, too.
I liked the idea of allowing non-TKPC members to post, but a limited amount. Unlimited posting with TKPC membership. I think not being able to respond to everything will push some folks over the edge to join.
A down vote for THAT!? Dang.....
Its not called "Black Friday" for nothing....
GT was a pic and 3 penalties away from winning that game. Unfortunate.
Dude!
Mens team had been receiving votes so about 40th but this trip will take those off the board. Prior to the loss today we were 27th in RPI.

Man...mental image of everyone from ESECPN puckering up...
This!^^^^
These teams are building from rough seasons last year. Great additions, really good coaching, solid recruiting! They will benefit from the new Athletics push and budgets. Let's! Go! Hokies!!!
Pro-SEC announcers and refs can Kiss. My. A$$!
No. Our bball teams, both men and women are NOT bad. There are over 350 D1 college basketball teams and I think both our men and women are comfortably in the top 100. (I do not know their actual raking). Will either team win the national championship this year? Probably not. Will they win the ACC championship? Doubtful. Will they face multiple challenges? Absolutely. That's why it is more important than ever to tune-in and cheer on your HOKIES! Can you be critical of a bad coaching decision? Yes. Can you be critical of a player not giving a 100%? Yes. But do not call our bball teams bad when that is clearly not the case. Now, we can revisit this comment at the end of the season and if our teams are below average in the country then I'll eat my words and apologize. But in the mean time... we do not have bad bball teams.
Joe! We love this place and appreciate your commitment and work. We aim to help you continue. Smart move leaning into the future with VT Football's future. Let's! Go! Hokies!!
I'm excited for the new translate AI function of comments into our favorite current and former posters (DC etc.) /s
Except Mississippi State was on defense

We can only be excited for one sport at a time, that's the rule

Currently the Commies QB coach. Leaving after the game v Denver to start his ACC HC gig

They're unfazed...
...at the moment.

So our bball teams are bad
Agreed.
Hate the trend towards domes overall in the sport. Football is meant to be played in the elements

Went to fresh market tonight to get some eggnog and to my surprise and joy I find a full shelf of Ukrops White House rolls for sale. I have missed these since I left VA in 2008.
