I want to know about Vanderbilt. Have they got big bags of money? I’m hearing their name throwed around a lot with some really good players

Yeah I think so

Vanderbilt is well funded. They play a fun style, players like that. And we’ll cross paths more just because it’s the former JMU staff, lots of VA/DC ties.

Was perusing Vandy’s staff bios and noticed this guy with a lot of DC ties; he was even a Team Takeover coach as recently as 2017:

No UVA. He’s going to UNC anyways if they want him and if not probably WF (edit: not nc state) or Kansas so it saves us some time. (like how Matthew Able is probably going to Baylor or Miami regardless)

I do wonder if we recruit the younger Hodge brother. A top recruit in 2026 but he can also reclass to 2025. Once we win the natty and have our exodus to the pros, the openings could be enticing

would that help us with Dixon?

Is it too early to lodge a “Matthew Hodge transfers to ODU for the 2025-26 season” prediction? He’s one of three freshmen forwards at Nova so could end up getting lost in the rotation, Neptune is very meh, the ODU coach is very ambitious and has Papa Hodge on staff.

Am I speaking evil for Nova into existence? Yes.

I appreciate Denis leaving UVA out. So we don’t need to pretend he’s a real possibility. Back in June I heard the coaches were “kicking his tires” to figure out if they had a chance. Pretty sure they’ve known since then there was no chance.

Weird list too. No NC State or Clemson, teams that had him at games last season before he was popular. They probably consider it a favor too though.

I like the ODU coach. Ran a great practice when i was over there. Could definitely see it happen

He did not appreciate me shooting around in an NJIT jersey though

Kid on our radar/has mentioned UVA several times. How about instead you stay in 2025 and redshirt to 2026?

Big man from the Charlotte area, will be transferring to IMG Academy this year.
