I'll give you my best guess answers in order ...


1. He will certainly spend more time at the 4 next year than he did this year with Durr and hopefully a healthy Ojiako. GCHokie34 might disagree with me but I think our best lineup against certain teams (Syracuse and UVa, for example) would have Durr/Ojiako at the 5 and Aluma at the 4.
2. Mutts might have to play some 3 if we don't add another wing from the portal but it isn't his ideal spot. I suspect he will work a lot on that in the off season as it will make him more versatile if he ends ups playing overseas.
3. Yes - Ojiako will be a good rotational player if he can stay healthy. Physically he is our most talented big.
4. Radford is a great matchup issue for VT and the more he can improve his outside shot the bigger that advantage becomes for Tech. He can effectively guard 1-3 and he pretty good attacking off the dribble. I don't worry too much about him guarding a 6'6" wing because he outworks everybody. He plays like he is 6'6" ... no one tell him that he isn't.
