I voted no just because I think the Carolina mafia will screw him over. I think heās definitely deserving but itās an automatic that at least 3 spots will go to unc/duke.
He should make it, but donāt think he will. If I had to guess itlāll be:
RJ Davis
Hunter Sallis
Blake Hinson
PJ Hall
Armando Bacot
Or fillipowski. I think heās 7th on voting
We got Hav as Definitely. It is happening!
Too easy for voters (subconsciously ?) to think DPOY is enough. Should be just the opposite.
Bacot doesnāt deserve it ā insert Filipowski; swap Hinson and Reece. At least, thatās how he gets in. I actually havenāt seen anyone include Hinson; not saying he shouldnāt be there, but thatās how Reece gets included, and he should.
UVA may be in the 8 team NIL tournament next season
The tournament operator is guaranteeing that sponsors and other tournament partners will offer each school a total of $1 million in NIL money for participating. That money will be funneled to collectives, boosters, or other NIL entities, and the coaches and teams will be able to distribute that money however they see fit, as long as the money goes to current players. The winning team will be eligible to earn another $1 million, to be distributed in the same way.
According to sources with knowledge of the situation, tournament organizers are in discussions with Alabama, Duke, FAU, Houston, Kansas, Oregon, San Diego State, St. Johnās, Syracuse, and Virginia to participate. Each team will also receive free travel, lodging, and meals during the event.

I support.
If I counted correctly, only 7 conferences represented in those 11 teams. Would be strange to play a conference team in a non conference game, but Iām 100% on board with this, and even just being linked to this at all has to be seen as a positive!
With conference consolidation, we will probably see a fair amount of noncon games against conference foes, right?
Highly confident we will find a way not to be involved
Yea that feels too straight forward and easy. This program doesnāt do either of those things well or often.
Hoos - 1st team In Acc history to lose 5 times by 20 or more and still have a winning record in ACC play.
Crazy
Also, Beekman broke a 40-year-old all-time steals record.
Any word on Dunn injury?
Nothing, hopefully.
He turned that ankle pretty good. Hopefully the four days off will help
Seemed he was laboring his knee tho.
Yeah the dude landed on his knee when he was down, bending it a weird way.
āItās March!! Spring has sprung and you know what that meansā¦! Itās Oscar Night! The Countdown to Oscars is on now on at ABC!!ā

Wouldnāt be March if we werenāt discussing a random accident for a crucial player.
Could it be that Taine will not be back next year?
1.) When Reece was asked about leadership and players coming back next year, he did not mention Taine who happened to be sitting right next to him.
2.) TB playing Taine a lot of minutes on Senior Night.
Maybe Iām just reading into things too much. I hope Taine comes back.
