Blue Cain goes to Georgia, but we get Beekman back for a year, followed by Bliss? Yeah, that works.

That’s an excellent way of looking at it. I liked Cain a lot, but Beekman + Bliss? Oh, yyeah. In a heartbeat.

I try to be neither too pessimistic nor too optimistic about any one particular prospect. Like Mick sang:
You can’t always get what you want
But if you try sometime you’ll find
You get what you need!
It seems to me that this has been Coach Bennett’s modus operandi ever since he arrived. We might not always get the recruit the board covets, but we get the one that helps Virginia win.

Do you guys like the Take it Away sauce (sandwich joint on Elliewood)?

Not especially, but paired with the bread ends and a Pennant Ale for less than $3 was a solid lunch for a broke student back in the day.

More on Bliss’s defense:

The stats hint at Bliss’ well-rounded skill set, but don’t reflect his defensive versatility that he brings to the table in spades. Bliss has the size and lateral athleticism to defend multiple positions, which will serve him well playing in Tony Bennett’s system.

E,g,. Saw where he did a credible job of guarding Preist Ryan** from Perk in the post. I think Ryan is like 6-6, 6-7 or so. He’s that kid that used to steal RD’s minutes from time to time and that of course meant we were going to redshirt RD.

** committed to Coppin St. Juan Dixon still there? (No)

I am not a scout, but I think it’s the same as what they call lateral quickness.
