What's this?

Thing about 2019 was those guys were all incredibly complimentary

IMO Robinson and NAW were head and shoulders above anybody on the current roster and could have carried that team to the Final Four under different circumstances (e.g. 5 not getting hurt and losing seeding).

Hill and Outlaw were remarkably suited to benefit from Robinson's and NAWs strengths where were collapsing the defense and finding open guys. We don't really have that same dynamic which means we have to play matchups a lot more.

There's no debate on depth, we were deeper this year and will only solidify that next year.

Can you assume a guy like Durr plays pro overseas since he is a real 7' ? ** -- Maroon Effect 04/16/2021 2:21PM

Durr will get paid to play basketball somewhere. He is a good player ** -- millmtnhokie 04/16/2021 3:01PM

No. There's more to Pro Basketball than being 7'. ** -- YBYSAIAHokie 04/16/2021 2:47PM

True. That length border is no longer magical. Apologies to Joe Spinks. ** -- KCHokie2 04/16/2021 9:08PM

We have a deeper team, not nearly the same level of talent or experience -- soflahokie 04/16/2021 12:47PM

I have to say I like this team better . -- NC Hoke 04/18/2021 5:53PM

I agree with the possible exception of Mutts over Outlaw. KBjr is the -- millmtnhokie 04/16/2021 2:29PM

Agree to disagree with you ** -- VaTechHokiesACC 04/16/2021 2:08PM

Huh, I'd take Radford, Mutts and Aluma with Murphy and Allenye closer -- st_andrew 04/16/2021 1:24PM

Id take Aluma over Blackshear, Mutts over Outlaw. . -- GCHokie34 04/16/2021 1:10PM

I get it with Outlaw though for his size and girth he was a good rebounder -- millmtnhokie 04/17/2021 11:49AM

I respect your opinion, but 21- lacks the high end talent of 18-19 -- VTECHFAN 04/17/2021 09:15AM

If you asked this current group to play in Buzz's system I'd agree... -- GCHokie34 04/16/2021 2:26PM

Let's hope we can stay that deep, thought it would be the case this year -- soflahokie 04/16/2021 2:30PM

I think you saw exactly why depth is important in both situations... -- GCHokie34 04/16/2021 2:35PM

There was way more talent on that buzz team and we lost Clarke -- AnotherTechW 04/16/2021 12:40PM

If guard play is better on this team it's Elite 8 or bust -- soflahokie 04/16/2021 2:27PM
