What's this?

My opinion is based on 3 or 4 games: Syr, UVA(2) and ND where we were

physically beaten in the 4th qtr. I didn't see WF(2), but I infer we were beaten physically there as well. We could not get away with playing Cole, Mabrey and Sheppard. They could not stop the other team's guards who were physically stronger and took them to the hoop at will.
We will certainly miss the multi-talented Cole. And Rivers. I like Mabrey who played hard. In a sense she reminds me of Panoussis who had a great first year but had trouble getting and making her shot thereafter. She was too short and too slow.
So next year we will be bigger. For experience, Sheppard, Geiman and King return. At least one of the newcomers will contribute. And Ennis shows some athletic ability.
Vocal leadership is overrated-performance leadership is what counts.

ND in ACC, so would she have to sit 2 yrs there? No waiver basis? ** -- hokie77 03/16/2020 8:36PM

Sit out one year under current rules. They eliminated the 2 year -- RJHokie 03/16/2020 8:44PM

Don't think it will help -- Hokster 03/16/2020 7:37PM

I thought this year's team's weakness was a lack of size out front. -- VT66 03/17/2020 12:04AM

I agree, it is unlikely another Cole is found... -- HokieJack 03/16/2020 7:51PM

Agree we just lost a lot more than playing in the NCAA Tournament ** -- Hokster 03/16/2020 8:04PM
