The VT basketball team had a good year. Picked to finish 11th in the ACC but finished 3rd. However, as a Hokie fan for over 60 years the phrase come up just short is all too common. The only time I can remember where the Hokies did not come up just short was the 1973 NIT Championship. This team should have made the sweet 16 (they were that good). Clearly we need a big man for defense to compete against certain teams. We also need a point guard that can create their own shots, hit open shots and hit free throws. Love their toughness and heart, but we need a big and a point guard next year.
