Here's a couple of quotes from this morning's Roanoke Times


The story written by Mark Berman.

“He’s a great kid, a valuable member of our team,” Young said Monday in a phone interview. “We’ve got plenty up front [next season]. We’re certainly bigger than we were a year ago, and we’ll try to add another piece if it makes it sense.”

Young said he feels fine about next season’s frontcourt.

“We’ll match up better with others in the ACC,” he said. “We should expect to be a much better rebounding team, a much better defensive team.

“But [Horne] was certainly a piece that we were counting on.”

Was Horne worried about his playing time for next season?

“No,” Young said. “Those are conversations that we’ll keep between us. Like everything else he does, he did it with class and he was up front and that’s how we’ll leave it.

“There was never any conversations [about playing time next season] specifically with him. He had a good year for us. He had solidified himself as a very valuable member.

“[Transferring] was what he felt best for him right now.

“I don’t think it had anything whatsoever to do with being unhappy at Tech. His experience at Virginia Tech was by all accounts a very positive one. His reasons for leaving, those are conversations that we had and will stay there.”
