# | Hokie Hoops Central: Jacksonville (2-2) at Virginia Tech (3-1) 7pm ESPN+/ACCNX Wow, we had great attendance in comparison.
Right, which is why Pry should go after Cam Rising in the off season.

He's still eligible for a medical hardship waiver this season
Yes - look at Beoheim- why leave your job when you are the most powerful person at the university and run your own little kingdom without oversight- get a 12 seed and you run the school

# | Hokie Hoops Central: Jacksonville (2-2) at Virginia Tech (3-1) 7pm ESPN+/ACCNX Hokies aren't the only ones with an attendance problem. Penn State, who just crushed the Hokies had comical attendance
Penn State basketball has an attendance/fan problemThe upper deck is closed off and I count at least 13 of 34 sections in the lower bowl with five or less people in themThere's a section that's entirely emptyTip off is less than a minute away pic.twitter.com/OP7SC0NXeY— Austin Mitchell (@Austin_Cree) November 21, 2024

# | Hokie Hoops Central: Jacksonville (2-2) at Virginia Tech (3-1) 7pm ESPN+/ACCNX In other words- no dancing this year unless we win the ACC - this will kill any bubble resume
for a couple seasons over a decade ago.
Writing those last four words
Hey none of that now--my VT student years were FOUR decades ago
Probably has nothing to with money - for a lot of people, their job is their self worth, their identity, etc. Especially football coaches who notoriously don't have a life outside of football.

# | Hokie Hoops Central: Jacksonville (2-2) at Virginia Tech (3-1) 7pm ESPN+/ACCNX We have become what everyone with the elites of this league (UNC and Duke) thought we would be when they let us in.
Mediocre at football, terrible in basketball, a net drain on league resources
Virginia Tech is currently ranked 126th in KenPom. Here's some facts about thatOnly Boston College is ranked lower among power conference programsThat is only 4th best in VA (VCU, Liberty, UVA)10 Atlantic 10 teams are ranked higher than the #Hokies4 MVC teams are ahead of VT— Tim Thomas (@TimThomasTLP) November 21, 2024
I'm convinced if they force him to retire he'll just keep showing up like Biff Poggi.

# | Hokie Hoops Central: Jacksonville (2-2) at Virginia Tech (3-1) 7pm ESPN+/ACCNX This team actually relies on the bigs in the paint way more than the three ball. Hokies only attempted 18 threes last night out of 74 shots. They are on pace to shoot their lowest total under Mike Young if this continues. They shot 33% from three which isn't great but isn't terrible either.
The problem with this team is Ball Security and they don't have the guys to play Young's high pressure man-to-man defense against good passing/moving opponents.
After they got absolutely schlacked by JMU, Mac Brown started crying in the locker room talking about how that might've been his last game.
Then he walked it back 30 minutes later

# | Hokie Hoops Central: Jacksonville (2-2) at Virginia Tech (3-1) 7pm ESPN+/ACCNX Right?!
I saw the headline and thought that's not a good look and then I watched the clip and thought that doesn't look like he's leaving?
What drama?
He and Belein didn't save their fucking money. RETIRE already. FFS

# | Hokie Hoops Central: Jacksonville (2-2) at Virginia Tech (3-1) 7pm ESPN+/ACCNX Pre- Buzz we were the worst P5 hoops program. I don't think it's debatable- this was before expansion. Maybe northwestern or Penn state were comparable, but we were a bottom 3 program at best. We were a top 2 big east football school and they wouldn't even let us in for basketball. embarassing.
after that drama he pulled in the locker room when they lost to JMU, if I'm the UNC AD I don't give him the option to stay. "retire gracefully or we can fire you"
I read this as a command for somebody named Mike to retire. So you were closer than me
PLS

# | Hokie Hoops Central: Jacksonville (2-2) at Virginia Tech (3-1) 7pm ESPN+/ACCNX this is so stupid and misleading. if you're going to follow up with a second tweet, just put the information in the first tweet. "Whit Babcock headed to the tunnel to meet the team" hits a lot different than "whit babcock leaving early" with a second tweet adding the context. it's intentional rage bait -- don't fall for it
I took all the away teams. Not as a gimmick, just worked out that way. Though with my track record this year I prob should try some "gimmicks".
