šŸ€ UVA at Virginia Tech, Mon, 19 Feb, 1900, ESPN

He got lots of run in the first half and was terrible. Like everyone else

Nope not over blowing it. It tanks our NET and KenPom which both show up on team sheets. Best case scenario is they rely on SOR metrics and quad records for selection so we still make the tournament but we get a low seed because our quality metrics are awful

I’m just despondent about next season. Bubble team this season and will be considerably worse next season unless we hit the lotto in the portal. Still clinging to the idea of Tony having one more really good team. Hopefully Gertrude stays and is what we’ve been missing in addition to a few great transfers

I’ve never hated watching a UVA team at times during the season quite like this season

Totally fine getting Eli in there (think he should have been in long ago). But we need to put an effort in here to actually get a not this horrific margin of defeat vs. just completely punting the game.

Frankly, everyone has been terrible. They are just frantic now. Just hope Tony can get them to put it behind them and get ready for UNC.

This team is prob only winning 1 more reg season game, so we’re gonna be sweating the ACC tourney and selection Sunday. I’d be happy with last 4 in at this rate.

Both Pitt and Hokies are 5 out teams with rangy lanky bigs. Think staff made the error of overestimating how much they needed to adjust to the mobility, especially since Buchanan is still young and raw and getting lost with all the spacing

With Reece gone we’re gonna need a portal guard unless Bliss is London or Mallory is ready for 20mins a night.

The reason Eli is playing is because Tony threw in the towel with 9 minutes left. I realize there’s no chance of winning at this point, but losing by 40 does have real consequences in our chances to make the tournament.

Let’s see after the reg season is over.

The highs are high and lows are LOWWWW. Shit sucks.

It sucks watching our team lose their edge when they get down in a game.

It’s February of 2024 - November 2024 is a long way away

Don’t understand this line of thinking tbh. McKneely will be a stud. Blake will be way better. I think we are clearly going to be better next year as long as Bliss is ready to go

Why haven’t we played Eli more?!?!?

Worst loss I have seen

Tony is ā€œtoo old for this shitā€ vibes…how many games has this guy just thrown the towel in this year?

I repeat, will we break the 38 we held Miami to?

Yeah we do need to keep our starters in. Eli and Dante and Bond midrange are not going to save us.

I don’t care if we’re the last of the last 4 in. I just want a chance in the madness.

But honestly losing like this and only beating GT down the stretch (believable at this rate) prob doesn’t get us in. Beating UNC Saturday will make me forget all about this one though
