What channel is the game on for Blacksburg people?

 

[hokiehi21]

decent lil start. lovin the effort so far.

 

[hokiecheme11]

Marshall Wood- very very rusty

 

[Ragingcroc]

Holy shit, don't go under the screen.

 

[hokiehi21]

Holy shit, don't go under the screen.

20 games into the season, it boggles my mind how VT is still beyond awful guarding the perimeter.

 

[Ragingcroc]

Lost count how many times I said Don't go under the screen against Larkin only for Rankin/green to go under screen and Larkin drains a 3.

 

[hunzworth]

damn.

Found the game on TV by accident on a channel I had no idea I got. I didn't see but like 6 mins left in the 2nd half. All I can say is it didn't appear to be as bad as it could of been.

I just hope they realize for the next game that UNC absolutely loves shooting 3s so please at least make an effort to get a hand remotely close to guarding them

 

[757Hokie83]

well that was disgusting. Great first 17 minutes, then back to the norm for the rest

 

[757Hokie83]

before last nights loss our RPI ranking was 148

Nobody watching this UNC game?

I watched, but knew VT would find a way to lose. Some of EG's supporting cast actually contributed today, but rebounding and turnovers were the killer. JVZ needs to develop some toughness down low...he seems lost at times. Eddie went most of the second half with no shot attempts. JJ has to find a way to get Eddie open looks. I'd rather see EG shoot in triple coverage over watching Brown and Rankin jack up bricks from long range.

I watched. It's just not worth commenting on. You can practically take the same pros and cons script and apply it to every game we play. Only real difference today was UNC did a great job making Green work so he didn't score over 20. I was a bit surprised we had chances to win though given just how painful it is to watch us on offense. Ours sets are non-existent. Nothing is fluid and most all our points are a grind. To still be in a position to win is somewhat remarkable.

This is still the Virginia Tech Erick Greens.

If anyone, ANYONE, wants to help EG, we could make some noise in the ACC. What the fuck are we going to do next year?

We could start by sending Robert Brown to Reggie Miller's Summer Camp for Kids That Want To Make Shots.

fuck, might as well send the whole team. He's not the only one who can't hit it
