The point is every top team schedules cup cakes before conference play starts. Iowa State was an example. You are the one who wrote, So why is he scheduling Grambling State in the first place if he cares so much? There are plenty of power 5 teams like us to beat up on by 20'ish. If you are...

Anyone who accuses Bennett of piling on in a game knows nothing of him. And while Tony Bennett and Dick Bennett share a similar approach on the court, they are very different off the court. Dick was consumed by basketball to the point he had to get out for his own health; to this day, he has a...

I know you don't follow Virginia so let me fill you in about both the game against Grambling State and head coach Tony Bennett. None of our starters logged more than 17 minutes in the game. Three walk-ons (non-scholarship players) received double digit minutes each. The ninth player in our...

The other way around. I'm a New Yorker who went to UVA, then later married a Canadian and moved a couple of hours from Toronto.

Here are a few youtube highlights of Harris, Anderson and UVA: Harris: Joe Harris Scores 36 Points for UVA Career Night Against Duke - YouTube Anderson: UVA's Justin Anderson Goes "Rajon Rondo" on Mississippi Valley State - ACC Must See Moment - YouTube Justin Anderson Reverse Dunk Off the...

Thanks. One other point I neglected to mention. Against teams that run, UVA will only send one player to the offensive boards and drop 4 back. It has meant few offensive boards but also few fast break chances for other teams.

Greetings all! As a UVA alum and fan I am looking forward to a good matchup with your Hawkeyes on Wednesday and thought I would give you a deeper understanding of UVA's team, its strengths and weaknesess. Strengths: (1) Defence. Tony Bennett uses what he calls a packline defence in which four...
