If you need a smile…

Primo Spears sounds like the name of an adult male performer.

Maybe Marquette? The game at home I felt like we owned it from start to finish.

I was thinking seton hall at the garden….either way I don’t think it was as obvious on the outside as it was to him. I think the less menacing more skilled is a good trade off.

Woodward, Bernstein and Politico have nothing on you.

Anyone got the scoop for the UVA scrimmage that was supposed to happen today?

 

[HuskyHawk]

Word from the Duke - Houston scrimmage is that Houston won by 10.

Now we have to worry about poor Duke and their 10 McD’s?

To be fair, Duke was missing Lively and Whitehead who are #1 and #2 in the recruit rankings lol. And apparently they shot 2-17 from 3. If I’m Houston, I’m a little concerned we only won by 10 points considering the circumstances…

Indeed, very concerning.

Nothing on Virginia basketball twitter or forums that I can see either. Hopefully some beat reports on Monday.

So, the secret scrimmage has remained a secret for more than 12 hours.

Impressive.

Hurley takes his scrimmage secrecy very seriously, apparently.

Virginia won 75-69

 

[OkaForPrez]

Virginia won 75-69

that’s a lot of points for and against Virginia.

 

[navery12]

Score is pretty close to meaningless in these scrimmages since they can add extra possessions and time basically anytime they want, for all we know that could have been a 60 minute game.

That said, if the 75-69 score is accurate I think that's a good sign that we can hang with a top 20 team that brought their full team back this early in the season

Without Jackson and Karaban.

Not serious enough.

Wouldn't fret about it with AJ and AK missing from the game.

Virginia is a good team anyway.

We positive AK missed it? Any idea on the severity of his ankle?

 

[uconngb]

What was Hurley thinking sitting on those timeouts?? He’s gotta go.

 

[CL82]

Without Jackson and Karaban.

Plus, it’s a scrimmage. They are working on specific things. It might be more “concerning“ if the score were dramatically lopsided.

 

[Huskyforlife]

i just wanna hear some individual statistics.

They didn’t make the tourney last year so I don’t know how good they actually are.

They’re getting some preseason love and it’s a meaningless scrimmage but giving up 75 points to them is a bad look. They only scored 75 in 2 games last year (81 vs Farleigh Dickerson and 75 vs Clemson). Could care less about our offense struggling but defense struggling is concerning.

Teams literally play until the coaches decide to stop, and in some cases will run back possessions to work on things until they score. Without that info it's impossible to say UVA scoring 75 is a bad look

 

[auror]

Also we don't actually know that score is accurate...

I thought it was a joke... Lol

I guess "Jerome" on their Board accepted the BY score as truth and others in the follow up also commended the result.

Love the UVA board, did you know that Ray Allen "wanted " to go there but they turned him down?
