Always good news when it isn’t Wisconsin

Being new to this scene I don’t know what is normal, kosher, etc. but any news, comments, etc on how the summer practices are going - specifically Taine, Jayden, Armaan, Kadin?

so what do we know of our schedule yet? Hosting Iowa, visiting Houston, in that “tournament” with Providence, Georgia, and Northwestern, and then i’ve seen hosting Navy and Radford. feel like more is out there but i can’t recall/find it anywhere.

I would guess with Iowa, Houston, and 2 of the 3 schools above, we shouldn’t be holding our breath for much more from a “marquee” match-up standpoint…

Just curious, why would playing Wisconsin not be good?

Lol, because we’ve played them in the challenge like 42 times

UVa-Wisconsin basketball games should be illegal they are so painful to watch. They’ve set sport in general, not just college basketball, back a decade by having us play the Badgers too many times.

It’s not much to be honest but we’ll have some notes on that in a VIP blog probably tomorrow.

The 4 games that we’ve played in the Bennett era were 60-54, 48-38, 49-37 and 53-46.

Sign me up to never have to watch that again.

Was anybody at the Rutgers game in the Barcap some years ago? Rutgers scored like 16 and we were brutal in the first half

We were down 18-17 at the half! Then they scored 8 in the 2nd half. https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/boxscores/2014-11-29-rutgers.html

The worst game I’ve been to was the home game against Maine. Just brutal. So, so awful to watch.

Yep it was awesome. Some of my favorite games are when we score 50 and win by double digits.

Edit: to the extent you think our program is “great” or “elite” that is the shit it is built on. Might as well embrace that pace baby.

Woof why’d you have to bring back the memory of that? Some of those games are just awful to watch.

I am pretty sure Wisconsin is the only ranked team we’ve played for our exempt tournament during the good Bennett years
