+/- is a critical metric


I have spent quite a bit of time trying to find this data. I have seen VT box scores that have this information but I don't know where to find them. This information will shed a lot of light on the Pedulla vs Murphy and Maddox vs Alleyne debates about how playing time should be distributed.

I like what I see with Pedulla - he seems to be more able than Murphy to beat his defender off the dribble and make plays. Too bad he still makes freshman mistakes. The rap on Maddox's defense is too nuanced for me to see but he has some blocked shots which are rare for our guards.

Typically our back court starters get 30+ minutes and the subs get a little less than 15 minutes. I would like to see something like Catoor 32 minutes, Alleyne 24 minutes, and Murphy 24 minutes. That would give Maddox and Pedulla about 20 minutes a game. Besides giving playing time to a couple guys who deserve more, the team would be fresher at the end of games when they typically play poorly. Plus you could put your "hot" players in at the end.
