General UVA Basketball Thread (December)

Announcers are using our media guide / game notes pronunciation: Cuh-FAR-Oh

Not clear to me why Caffaro wouldn’t correct that, other than he’s probably just happy when people refer to him by any of his actual names.

Should see how the brasilian players’ names are butchered here in WC. Assume other countries players as well

Funnily, while lots of UVA teams have audio clips of the player pronouncing their name and hometown on their profile page, mens bball does not.

That’s a great idea. Especially for the non-US guys.

That’s fake news. Didn’t maul a single face in that video.

Brazilian pronunciations are HARD! Took me two or three trips before I got the hang of the d’s and the t’s and the r’s and all the rest. And, of course, now I’ve forgotten it all.

My understanding is that he was protecting a nasty cut on his eyebrow.

I’m not convinced… I only saw him clapping a few times in that video… might not be coaching material like JWilly has shown.

Maybe he’ll be on the bench next year too, but on the other side!

I would put money on him being a graduate assistant next year.
