Damn after losing Lynn Kidd and also their womenās coach. You really have to feel for Hokies. Hopefully they will rebound soonā¦

Rumor for Pedulla is back home. Oklahoma or somewhere around there.

That reminds me, Oweh is in the portal (nice player but canāt shoot). Jameel Brown, too?
Yeah Jameel Brown is ass LOL. Canāt believe there was a time in my life where I was pushing for him to get offered.
Itās okay though I definitely and retuned and it will be better with Tucker Anderson (who will go to somewhere like Loyola Chicago and be solid).

Yeah, heāll probably go down a level.
What about Oweh? Big East maybe, from Jersey
St Johns needs 10 guys.

This is an incredibly impossible task to do while leaning heavily on scouting, so godspeed to them.

Igor that high surprises me a little bit.
Igor is kinda in that Groves/Beran category. Heās not awesome but he should be fairly plug and play on a high major that needs a stretch 4. High major recruit and succeeded at a level just below high major.
I didnāt realize however, how mediocre Beranās season was.
I wouldnāt have minded having Igor last year in the Groves role (more versatile) and I think heād be a nice complement the following year, depending on how the post rotation shakes out. Iām just not sure we need him this coming yearā¦ (basically because we are not gonna be good barring an unlikely 2-3 man haul from the portal where at least 2 of them exceed expectations).

Heās tougher than I thought, though. Really solid rebounding numbers. Good finisher around the rim. For that reason I like him a bit more than the Groves/Beran archetype.

Yeah, heās 85% of the Groves shooting from 3 (or so) plus a bunch of other stuff we didnāt get from Groves.
Groves wound up being a nicer piece than I wouldāve guessed but he also super charged our roster tendency of guys being awesome at one thing and horrible at like 8 things.
It was like the worst superhero movie ever.

Had we given him minutes his first year (and had he known Traudt would redshirt the following year), would have been a solid contributor / starter.
Probably would have been a better individual player too.
Edit: sorry, off topic.

Our portal in and out mistakes only become on topic after nobody wants to discuss them
Hey everyone! Letās have a fun and forward looking conversation about how awesome we are going to do in the portal that ignores the fact that our staff hasnāt had a coherent roster management strategy in years!
