🏀 UVA at Virginia Tech, Mon, 19 Feb, 1900, ESPN

Dante cant even do the thing that makes him “playable” in Tony’s eyes over Gertrude.

Did the refs not get the memo that they’re not really supposed to call NC charges anymore?

X has too many turnovers but Dante? Nah..

Or that it matters but refs are laughable. Two fucking charges. We’ve haven’t been on the other end once all year.

It obviously doesn’t matter, but this is a straight hose job from the zebras. Not like we’re getting hosed out of a win obviously, but still just ridiculous.

We hoped this group would be it, but I just don’t see it from iMac and Dunn and Reece. They are good players but when they going gets tough they shrink.

‘No one values toughness more than Tony Bennett’ ughh Corey…have you watched the last 4 years? Tony hasn’t had a tough team since 19/20. If he values it that much he needs to seriously reflect on why his rosters aren’t reflecting that value

I never criticize Tony but I will this once. I’m not sure he has a game plan to get back in games when down double digits… Boeheim could, UNC can, etc. UVA can’t seem to do it ever.

Anyone here still hate Elijahs turnovers?

There is literally no excuse for not playing a kid with the scoring skills of Eli in a situation like this.

Is there some redshirt rule in bball that’s like the 4 game rule in football? Only legitimate reason to not be playing X now.

He’s the second off the board in the 2nd on nbadraft.net I follow youtubers though, so not sure what the consensus is on website source

We’ve got a young team that isn’t resilient. We’ve seen it all this year. None of our other teams have spiraled like this when down. Isolate the variables …

When your down 25 you can’t pass the ball around the perimeter.

It’s going to be critical next year that our coaches actually coach Blake up to take the ball to the basket, not just catch and shoot from whatever 6-14 foot distance he’s at without making a single move. Could have a very bright future, but he make basically no moves to the basket right now ever.

Yeah even Boeheim wasn’t as stubborn. If Tony is going to coach for 4-5 more years Im hoping he grows in terms of being humble and showing offensive defensive versatility. And not just a different option off the base set.

Like we did when Carolina beat the hell out of us in the Dean Dome in 2017, then a week later in Cville we held them to their lowest point total in 70 years?

Tony clearly loves Harris. Not sure why. Any other player who dribbles the ball off their knee out of bounds would be benched.
