What's this?

Hoop Group Southern Jam Fest...

VT had quite a few targets at Hoop Group Southern Jam Fest

Tyrell Ward (New World) had a great first day...VT still sits strong there

Justin Taylor (Team Takeover) had a phenomenal weekend...had 30+, 20+ and led his Team Takeover team in the Finals with 17. He may play his way out of contention for VT. Especially if Duke decides to take him, which they absolutely should.

Tyler Nickel, Donald Hand Jr and Jayden Epps (Team Loaded) all had good weekends, especially Nickel. But Team Loaded will push them to Adidas schools, UVA and blue-bloods before theyll let VT have a fair shot. Unfortunate for Nickel, and hopefully a prior relationship is helpful there. But the track record isn't good.

VT offered 6'4 wing Justyn Fernandez (DC Premier) who had a big weekend

Is there a place that lists Adidas/Nike schools? -- st_andrew 05/23/2021 8:29PM

We're a Nike school. -- EDGEMAN 05/24/2021 10:15AM

In fairness, I think Coach Frank Beamer thought it was important. ** -- dallasvt 05/24/2021 2:06PM

Hoping Adidas doesn't "victimize" schools w/any more payments to players. -- KCHokie2 05/23/2021 10:35PM
