What's this?

I didn’t intend to disparage any walk ons but they generally seem to be

brought in as practice players versus brought in to develop for game action. One of the walk on guards a few years ago either didn’t play in high school or wasn’t a starter in high school. Can’t remember which or even who it was but I remember his profile.

Didn't take long for Williamson and Yates to quit bball (at least at VT). -- chagerma 08/02/2021 10:38AM

Yates will make more money with spreadsheets than basketballs -- UpperQuad 08/02/2021 4:05PM

Williamson was hyped quite a bit. Anyone have info on him? ** -- VT One 08/02/2021 11:30AM

A person who posts on this board all the time hyped him. Not 34 either -- 949hokie 08/03/2021 12:22AM

Sounds right. As I recall, he grew 5-6 inches in his last two years of high -- VT One 08/03/2021 08:23AM

Who hyped him? It's rare that a walk-on contributes in basketball. ** -- Chris Coleman

Don’t recall but it was a Richmond area local who spoke of his late growth -- VT One 08/02/2021 4:47PM

Probably the same guys that hyped Ryan Payne the year before that... ** -- VT94 08/02/2021 1:17PM

I didn't interpret your comments as disparaging... -- VT94 08/04/2021 10:05AM

I agree totally. ** -- VT One 08/04/2021 3:37PM

I guess it's part of the VT fanbase culture. -- Chris Coleman

I wouldn't ascribe 1 or 2 posters as "the VT fanbase culture" ** -- Upwind of uva 08/04/2021 08:36AM

VT should have a sponsored a club do it -- EDGEMAN 08/02/2021 09:41AM

Are you going to get a second club for monitoring and securing it? -- VT94 08/02/2021 10:28AM

A club in the Sports Data major could maybe do it -- UpperQuad 08/03/2021 01:21AM

Are any VT club students currently liable for damages in other areas? -- EDGEMAN 08/02/2021 12:47PM
