The first high profile meeting between these two schools since the streak came an end, this should be a heated matchup. Both programs are in transition years, Virginia Tech welcoming a new coach and new system, while Virginia looks to recover from the departure of the stars of last season’s team. So far this season, […]
With the decade coming to a close later tonight, it’s time to look back at what has been arguably the greatest decade in Virginia basketball history. Four Regular Season ACC Titles, two ACC Tournament Championships, three Sweet Sixteens, two Elite Eights, one Final Four, and the program’s first National Championship are the results of just […]
Now that we’ve all had a couple of days to process that loss to South Carolina last Sunday, it’s time to talk about the result and what it means for this team. First and foremost, it’s worth addressing that we as UVA fans have been conditioned to react to each and every loss as if […]
We’ve seen rock fight after rock fight after rock fight so far this season for this Virginia team. But nothing matches up with this upcoming contest against Navy. As we all know, Virginia is the slowest paced team in the nation. Navy? They’re the second slowest team, right behind the Wahoos. While researching the Navy […]
So, that game wasn’t fun. It was a gut punch of a result that, while everyone knew South Carolina was decent, was a bit unexpected. There are takes, upon takes, upon takes about this Virginia team, the roster as a whole, and specific personnel. But let’s take a moment to admire the fact that Tony […]
This is an odd matchup. South Carolina is known as a gritty power five conference team, but has lost to Boston University. Virginia is ranked ninth in the country, but has lost by twenty-nine points to an unranked team. It’s hard to know what either of these teams will be by season’s end. So far […]
On the surface, Stony Brook doesn’t seem threatening. Their 7-5 record is harmless, and their best win against 152nd ranked (KenPom) North Dakota State isn’t much to hang a hat on. But, this team’s strengths line up well with Virginia, as their rim protection and shooting proficiency could prove troublesome for the ‘Hoos. Through twelve […]
The Virginia offense hasn’t been good this year. It just hasn’t. They lack a go to scorer and, as we all now, the shooting has been atrocious. But, part of the problem has been that the personnel don’t match up well with the schemes. Previously, I’ve gone into detail that both Jay Huff and Mamadi […]
10. Mike Scott vs Oklahoma 2010 In a consolation game at the Maui Invitational, any win was a good one for a young Tony Bennett’s squad. Scott made sure the ‘Hoos captured at least one win in Hawaii as he tallied 27 points and pulled down 15 rebounds to help Virginia get by Oklahoma 74-56. […]
