What's this?

You have to dig into the why. He shoots more 3's than 2's


He plays a role in the MY system. And that is to be a threat from 3, but take 2's when the set/action allows for it.

In the entire ACC, only 14 other players have taken more 3's than NA. And his 3 pt % is higher than 8 of them. But since he takes more 3's overall, his total % is heavily influenced by that.

Now if you were to complain about his 2pt % then that is far. At 33% he should be better. But it is not an outlier. In fact his stats are almost identical to Noah Locke, G at Louisville who is their leading scorer. And it is not too far behind Girard and Swider at Syracuse who are both starters and have similar stats with more 3's than 2's.

The hate for NA is just crazy. I can't remember the last time a starter, who is our second leading scorer on the year, got this much negative attention from the "fans". Do y'all just not like how he looks (something against people with short hair)?

  It's crazy how far off this team has performed vs preseason expectations -- Foxhall Hokie 01/28/2022 12:50PM
  He just may need more of his recruits in the system. That may mean at some -- IB4TECH 01/28/2022 3:26PM
  Player retention has been an issue for Young at VT. -- NC Hoke 01/28/2022 5:05PM
  That’s true but not sure how much leaving was due to MY. If I see -- IB4TECH 01/28/2022 5:30PM
  The way I look at it is as roster management part of coaching. -- NC Hoke 01/28/2022 6:07PM
  Agree, but with one exception -- ShockWaveVT 01/28/2022 6:14PM
  Agree, I’m just counting heads. -- NC Hoke 01/28/2022 6:21PM
  NA is one of his recruits. There is no one left that he didn't pick. ** -- IronBlood 01/28/2022 4:01PM
  And NA is averaging 10.5 points per game and is on pace to have his highest -- HokieAl 01/28/2022 4:21PM
  Well, let's be honest. He had to grab what he could work with. -- UEMcGill 01/28/2022 4:10PM
  Watching this team this year makes me feel like -- VTCALS72 01/28/2022 3:21PM
  We weren't that much better last year -- Vippie1 01/28/2022 4:02PM
  We played a very weak conference schedule last year ** -- 133743Hokie 01/28/2022 8:21PM
  True. Plus we lost 4 of our last 6, including to a 6-10 Pitt team. -- Maroon Effect 01/28/2022 3:28PM
  They say he's a "system coach." Systems get figured out and can be overcome -- Maroon Effect 01/28/2022 3:10PM
  Doubt he has many options. ** -- BioVTjunkie 01/28/2022 2:11PM
  Yeah, but at least Tech is the best last place team in D-1 basketball. ;) ** -- Old Line Hokie 01/28/2022 1:59PM
  It does kinda feel that way, though -- Zanderhokie 01/28/2022 5:30PM
  I think he’s been tinkering a plenty -- VBpescador 01/28/2022 1:53PM
  CMY is either very wise, or very stubborn -- VT ChemE 1986 01/28/2022 1:18PM
