size, depth and experience. This isn't rocket science dude. UVA or not, VT does not and IMHO will not compete for ACC title or anything meaningful in the NCAA unless/until our recruiting steps up in a big way. Go back one year or 10 years and look at the top ACC teams...better talent, more size, more depth. No doubt.
I will say again...I think Buzz has done a GREAT job vs. what other coaches have been able to do/accomplish. No where close in my mind...but the ACC is not a league where smaller rosters with mostly 3 star talent is going to win big. Don't take my word for it, look at facts.
