For a second straight year, JT Thompson had a hand in the Hokies losing against UNC in the ACC Tourney. Greenberg sure was a genius for giving this kid a scholarship over Stephen Curry . . . Guess all those Tar Heel fans can shut-up about the officiating in the VT-UNC football game b/c the bball Refs more than made up for it Friday's contest. I wish Seth would've gone a little Bobby Knight and chucked a chair onto the court. Note to the Tar Heel's NCAA tourney opponents - Don't even breathe on Tyler b/c its a foul.

Star players always get the calls. It's inherent in the game. Having said that, losing Vasello will hurt a lot. Personally, on a given night, VT can play with anyone and should have a shot at the NCAA but when you're only 4 games over 500, its tough, no matter how you play.

Yeah, losing Vassallo will be a huge problem heading into the 2009-2010 season. I sure am glad Greenberg managed to recruit and sign both of Dell Curry's sons to full ride scholarships ... oh wait ... If he isn't going to land double sports legacy players (both Mr. & Mrs. Curry starred in VT athletics), at least he could start recruiting some height. When was the last time VT had more than one player over 6'9"?

I agree with everything in your article except your Tyler Hansborough "huge defensive play"
statement, re. the Tech loss to UNC in the ACC tourney.
A huge defensive play is a clear cut block, or taking a charge, or a steal, etc. that garbage from TH at the end of the game was NOT a huge defensive play. That was a horrible call by a horrible set of officials.

We all saw what happened to Carolina the next night with a crew not afraid to call fouls on BOTH teams.

Hokies suck. Bunch o' hoodlums...except for the stuck up rich kids from Northern Virginia. They just like to pick on asians.
