I'd put that possibility as pretty high.

Number one, Durr started 85 of 87 career games at USF. He's a *very* experienced player. Nothing on the stat sheet jumps out at you, though, and as a matter of fact, his shooting percentage plummeted from about 50% his first two seasons to 41% last season, so that's concerning. But they were a bad team and appeared to have some unrest, with 8 players transferring out.

He was their leading rebounder each of the last two seasons, and their leading shot blocker each of the last three seasons.

There's just too much good there to *not* get him significant playing time, probably as the starter at the 5.

VT adds Michael Durr per Goodman. 7’0”. -- Femoyer Hokie 04/07/2021 12:45PM

In my best Kraftwerk accent...beware of Durr Storm!!! ** -- Tuckahokie 04/07/2021 2:06PM

Exactly what we need, a true 5 that can eat space and be physical -- soflahokie 04/07/2021 1:30PM

Does he project as a starter? ** -- Femoyer Hokie 04/07/2021 1:32PM

He'll probably play 20mpg which is what matters, more against big teams -- soflahokie 04/07/2021 1:38PM

Agreed. 20 mpg would be ideal, with more minutes against FSU's ** -- VT ChemE 1986 04/07/2021 7:44PM

10pts 7rebounds against us this year.Good pickup,now do we go after a wing? ** -- HokieBrazil 04/07/2021 1:07PM

He fouled out of that game but Aluma and Mutts only combined for 15 so ... -- vt90 04/07/2021 1:16PM

That was the game Pemsl had 10 points and 6 rebounds ** -- st_andrew 04/07/2021 2:22PM

Just scanned his stats,he only fouled out against us this year.Averaged 2.5 -- HokieBrazil 04/07/2021 1:22PM

.and that ain't no bull. well actually it is. ** -- squarerootofone 04/07/2021 12:58PM

Good addition! At the minimum he gives us good depth -- VTECHFAN 04/07/2021 12:56PM

Listed at 7-0, 250, from Victory Rock Prep in Atlanta. -- Will Stewart

If you had to take a guess now, then what do you think the percentage is -- VTHokie2000 04/07/2021 1:17PM

I'd put that possibility as pretty high. -- Will Stewart

04/07/2021 3:39PM

I'll take that bet. I'd be shocked if this guy could supplant Mutts in -- King of Hokies 04/07/2021 11:14PM

Mutts moves to the 3 -- erikl2 04/08/2021 09:31AM

$50 then? ** -- King of Hokies 04/08/2021 11:21AM

Who starts is unimportant. Durr, Aluma and Mutts will play 25+ mins/game ** -- VT ChemE 1986 04/07/2021 7:46PM

Both Murphy and Durr bring a lot of minutes -- GreenvilleVT 04/07/2021 6:30PM

I’d say 79 % FT shooter stands out ** -- hokiepro 04/07/2021 4:01PM

Seems he shot 79% from the foul line this season. Always a good . . -- MidloHokie 04/07/2021 12:58PM

Better than 90% of our guys...lol ** -- EDGEMAN 04/07/2021 1:21PM

Also, USF only had 1 player average over 10 ppg and 5 guys between 8 ppg .. -- vt90 04/07/2021 1:03PM

Big pickup for CMY. Adds badly needed size to allow Aluma to play the 4. ** -- FCGOBBLER 04/07/2021 12:54PM

I'd put that possibility as pretty high.
