UVA vs South Carolina

Slipping away now. Credit SC. They got punched and responded. We fell back into the sloppy play. More turnovers and bad shot selection.

Credit to South Carolina. They just outplayed us today and hit some tough shots. Too loose with the basketball.

That was a disappointing game through and through, not even much good I can find out of this besides maybe Diakite

Tough to win games when you turn it over 20 times. Pretty simple

Also shows we cant even lean on the defense. Which was not very good today

Regretting my Elight Eight prediction

Screw SC. Now I’m going to have to spend part of the holidays with family from Columbia and no knives on the table.

Yeah I’ve bitten my tongue on all the best defense ever hype. Maybe by KenPom measurements where dominant performances here and there can carry you. I think versatility is a problem, which means it won’t consistently be great. We need both bigs on the floor to be at our best offensively, which doesn’t play well on the other end against most teams. I know Tony disagrees but I’ve said last year’s team was actually the best defense. Look at the game by game stats. They were GOOD against everyone, could match up to any lineup even more importantly without costing offense.

McKoy didnt play again?

No McKoy. Assume just a coaches decision. Haven’t heard anything otherwise.

Jerry’s on it.

Many of you have asked why McKoy hasn't played the past two games. We learned that he has an undisclosed medical issue.

awful to hear for him. thank you

At the presser, Tony said McKoy was a little sick but it was mostly coaches decision.

Played very weak offensive competition too. Not all that different from how other Bennett teams would fare against similar competition on the defensive end. Analytically, an increase in blocked shots is really the only improvement on the defensive end this year.

Our D didnt do much to bother them. Coupled with our inability to even dribble the ball brought the outcome. Plus yawning fans in the stands ha
