There is a delay when a clink the comments link. DOnt know if i am the only one effected.
Onto the hoops
Get that kid a few McDonalds double cheeburgers with honey mustard dipping sauce. DC/NOVA is replacing NYC as a basketball mecca.
John Wall, the kid he went head to head with is going to Baylor according to CBSsportsline. Baylor and VT are very similiar. Both building quality programs after being irrelevent.
Hokie Hoops tip off event in Richmond is Oct. 14th at Toad’s Place.
I think this is a great move for Green and will help prepare him for the kind of talent he’ll see in the ACC next year and the year after.
