Brogs~ “Coach Bennett had to shift practices for me in order to have me still come to practice, & to still achieve getting my master's. He did that, in order for me to get my education, & originally do what I meant to come there & do. He allowed me to be able to do both.”
#GoHoos
Tony Bennett is unbelievable. The ‘Hoos are a 2 point loss to NC State from beating every single team in the ACC this year.
They darn near won the ACC regular season title after losing 3 pros. What a year, let’s keep it rolling!
#GoHoos
I’m pretty sure I speak for all of Wahoo Nation when I say thank you Ty, ‘Dre, & Kyle. The 3 of you helped so many of us experience our greatest moment(s) as sports fans. So proud of you guys. At UVA, it’s all about family. Enjoy tonight & have fun. Much love & respect 👊🏼
#GoHoos
And there it is! De’Andre’s first huge game as a pro. 28 minutes, 27 points, 3-3 from deep, 8-9 from the line, & 11 rebounds. An efficient night as well, attempting only 12 shots to drop those 27. Also, his first double-double. Hell of a night for the Wahoo Legend.
#GoHoos
That’s the Morsell we all expected and it’s going to come. Kid is going to be very, very good. That’s a confident pull-up J. Zero hesitation.
10 points the final 12+ minutes of the game. 3 steals. Casey, just keep ballin’.
#GoHoos
UVA fans are known to embrace the pace, well, start to embrace the hate as well. Weren’t the most liked program before the Dance, it’s about to get worse. I personally welcome it. Virginia’s program is cleaner than church shoes w/ high integrity kids & staff. We’ll be just fine.
Coaching staff & the student-athletes get all the praise and rightfully so but let’s give a shout-out to Mike Curtis & Ethan Saliba. A well conditioned healthy roster was everything. UVA fans more than anyone should know that. Those two are two of the best in the biz.
#Respect
👊🏼
Anyone else wake up some mornings & still can’t believe Virginia Basketball won the whole damn thing? Not a Sweet 16, or an Elite 8 run, or reaching a Final Four for the first time in forever. Actual National Champions. That feeling hasn’t worn off & hope it never does!
#GoHoos
Winning at UVA in basketball is hard. He’s turned mediocrity into a perennial Top 10 team. He’s been the last guy standing on Monday night. He’s dominated a conference for a decade. Three early L’s, that’s all you got? Please. Gimme Bennett all day. Already excited for next year.
I guess we’re even huh? Shouldn’t let refs decide a game, play better. Execute better. Move on. Ya’ll took that W and we’ll sure as hell take this one. Hoos baby 🗡️
Tomas goes from fouling a 3 point shooter, giving up the lead to drillin’ a game winner. You know how much mental toughness that takes? Kid probably felt awful. That’s just so damn clutch and big-time.
#GoHoos
ESPN- "I chose Virginia because of the relationship with the coaches since high school. I love how close the team is, and it's my uncle Ralph Sampson's alma mater. I'll miss the Crimson Tide, but I'm so grateful for this next chapter."- Key
Two best friends that took every single class together @ UVA except one in their 3 years together will play each 11/14 in Phoenix & 1/14 in Atlanta. Wahoo Legends.

@SLAMonline
FSU fans talking shit for fans rushing the field. If you don’t like it, tell your school to score one more point than Virginia. College kids enjoying themselves, get the hell over it.

@tyjerome_
as the toughest point guard he faced this year, crediting 11 with knowing the Virginia offense inside & out. Ty’s basketball IQ is elite 💯
Kings’ GM Vlade Divac on
@kylejguy5
~ “His shooting is just exceptional. When we had him the first time, we said we have to bring him again and see if he’s just lucky. And no, he was making a lot of shots second time too. Shooting is an elite weapon for him.”
#GoHoos
“I saw that Tony Bennett had a lot of success w/ winning & getting players to where they want to go,” he said. “The development there speaks for itself and he has a bunch of guys who are getting to the NBA and staying in the NBA. Virginia has a winning culture and I love to win.”
Jabri Abdur-Rahim tells
@PrepCircuit
he has committed to Virginia - The 2020 standout found his college home following his official visit
“On my visit, I really could envision myself there on and off the court.”
Read:
11 days from 3 Wahoos being taken in the first 60 picks of the NBA Draft. Three legends that scored 117 of the 148 UVA points in the Final Four. It’s going to be an historical evening.
#GoHoos
There’s a chip on the line. From biggest loss to the biggest game. Simply amazing. I want a dub just as much as the next diehard fan but no matter the outcome, this program & these kids have made Wahoo fans so damn proud. Got another 40 in ya fellas? Ball till ya fall.
#GoHoos
So darn happy for Diakite. Gets his 2nd consecutive start and scores 12 on 50% shooting, pulls down 7 boards (10 last game), 2 dimes, & 3 blocks. Contributed to a Thunder road dub. Nice little stat line. We’re pullin’ for ya Mamadi.
#WahooFam
🔥
Taine’s 13 assists in the last 10 games might not seem like much but then you see the 1 turnover during that same span. And you see the 12/25 from deep this year, pretty darn good. Something to be said for knowing your role, staying ready, & going in & doing your job.
#Wahoowa
🗡️
As the 4-0, 18th ranked Virginia ⚔️ Football team prepares for a road game @ 10th ranked Notre ☘️ Dame this week, the defending national champs, Virginia Basketball team, begins practice for the ‘19-20 season. Say that out loud, just once. It’s beautiful.
#GoHoos
No rhyme or reason for this post, just a random appreciation post for The 🐐
Dubs in 79.1% of games coached for the past decade…the elite. We don’t deserve this man, but damn sure glad we got him.
I certainly hope he knows how Wahoo Nation feels about him.
#ClassAct
You always see other fans saying, “you may be a fan but there’s no way you can honestly say you enjoy watching them play.” Umm, actually we do. Winning is fun and Virginia plays in a lot more exciting, big-time shot making games than most people realize.
#GoHoos
A lot of VT fans can’t even give credit where it’s due and move on. That’s one of the reasons why winning that game feels so damn good. Humility and a win, today? You have neither.
#GoHoos
It’s going to be the longest day of the year. The Wahoos lace ‘em up tonight for what will be one of the program’s biggest games EVER. An opportunity to be on the doorstep of a Final Four. This is what it’s all about right here. Let’s go Virginia! Wahoo Nation has got ya back 👊🏼
I have zero desire to talk about Duke, UNC, VT right now or complain about half the sh*t that Virginia fans whine about, that’s just me, to each their own I suppose. Biggest week in 35 years. Solely focused on the kids and program that deserve 100% of the attention.
#Wahoowa
I’m honestly not sure what’s more impressive in UVA’s last 108 ACC games played.
• 89 total wins (.824 win %)
• 41-13 on the road (.759 win %)
• 48-6 at home (.889 win %)
I think it’s probably the 89 overall wins but 41 of 54 on the road in the ACC is so damn good!
#GoHoos
Before the year started UVA fans, “They can all go if you win Virginia a chip”. Presently, all 3 declaring “Noooo, damn man.” 😂
Big 3, appreciate ya! Changed UVA forever. Hope you all ink deals.
#MadRespect
👊🏼
Grown men 35+ referring to student-athletes of their favorite college basketball program as “garbage” is nothing short of pathetic. Maybe the KID didn’t play great, get over it. Your 3-9 and 7 points in your church league game last Thursday wasn’t all that impressive either.
Tough L to swallow. If you play or pull for a sports team long enough, you’re bound to have a 19-13 season or two sandwiched in between all the reg season 🏆 ACC tourney 🏆 & then even lucky enough to win the big daddy 🏆 riding this 🚂 ‘til the wheels come off. Hoos All Day 🙏🏼
Virginia Football hasn’t had the year I’m sure they envisioned but those young men & staff remained positive, kept their head down & continued to work/show up. Enjoy this win fellas. What do ya say we end the season on a dub streak & carry some momentum into next season? HOOS!🗡️
So glad
@3_ToDaNeck
decided to come across the country and QB the Wahoos for two years. Accounted for 26 touchdowns w/ 2 games left and has lead Virginia to its first 7+ win season since ‘11. Appreciate ya 3 👊🏼
Virginia has played in 29 games in the past 3 seasons where the outcome was decided by two possessions or less (6 points). The ‘Hoos are 25-4 in such contests. A little luck. A lot of clutch shots & lockdown D. Elite coaching. Disciplined basketball.
#Wahoowa
Vah Teck fans all year, “Congrats on your little Belk Bowl win over a mediocre South Carolina (Sec) team”.
Just announced.
VT will play a mediocre Mississippi State (Sec) team in the Belk Bowl. Good luck, Tech.
#NineDaysStraight
#GoHoos
Reece now with 50 thefts on the season. Othell Wilson’s 69 (school record) is definitely within reach. Beekman also with another double digit dime game (10).

Virginia winning the C’hip is something a lot of fans thought that they’d never see in their lifetime, including me. Up on ☁️ 9 and there’s NOTHING bringing me down, certainly not a young man choosing another school. That definitely isn’t doing it. Carry on...
I remember being in the stands for Bronco’s first home game vs. Richmond. Down 16-7 @ half. Tonight, down 17-7 @ half. Lost by 17 to the Spiders. 11 point dub tonight. All about developing a winning culture. Proud of the comeback & fight shown tonight, Virginia Football.
#GoHoos
KG’s fts, Kihei’s pass, Mama Dee’s shot, Dre’s 3, all big-time. A play not getting the amount of love it should is (
@btwice_11
) Key’s block on Culver. Not easy to get limited run leading up to a game of that magnitude & then ball out. Love the intangibles 2 brings to the table.
Casey may have missed a 3 that would have put the game on ice w/ :26 left but I’m going to focus on the nothing but net 3 w/ 2:02 left that gave UVA the lead 53-51. I like that he made it, I love that he shot it. On the road, in-state rival. Big-time bucket, young man.
#GoHoos
Let’s pack the stands next Sat., folks. The corner has been turned & it’s onward & upward at this point. Create that home field advantage Wahoo Nation that so many of us remember. Big time program rich in tradition in FSU coming to town. Let’s have Scott Stadium jumpin’.
#GoHoos
As previously rumored, and now per source, ‘20 SF Henry Coleman out of Richmond will be taking an unofficial visit to UVA Oct 13th, Homecoming weekend. This is big as Coleman and Virginia is an excellent fit, both on the court and off. Let’s go Wahoos! Hawkedits_ IG w/ the edit.
Bronco’s first two years, 8-17. His last two? 17-8. Lost those 8 games by an average of 8 points/game. Won the 17 games by an average of 17 points/game. That’s wild and that’s some serious progress. Building a program.
#GoHoos
As some get all worked up, I’m personally on cruise control this season. The wins are a little sweeter and the losses aren’t nearly as painful. It’s allllll good.
#GoHoos
Pretty darn cool seeing Braxton Key playing well in the league. Last 3 games combined he’s scored 36 points on 52% shooting. He’s pulled down 23 boards, blocked 5 shots, & recorded 5 steals! Not too bad 🔥
#WahooFam
Brogdon stays 🔥 posting 25 points, 6 dimes, & 8 boards in a Pacers’ win last night. That’s 3 straight games w/ 8 rebounds. That’s 51 assists on the season to 12 turnovers. That’s 30-31 from the line. The Wahoo Legend is playing out of his mind rn & it’s awesome to see.
#GoHoos
Just got done watching Coach’s Corner w/ TB. Nothing new here but sometimes it’ll just hit ya. Coach Bennett’s sincerity & just how genuine the man is, it’s so refreshing. When UVA reaches a FF or wins a c’hip, it’ll be that much sweeter just bc Tony Bennett is UVA’s coach.
@_mdiakite
It’s student-athletes like you that make us fans so proud. We love what you contributed on the court but how you represented the program off the court is what I respect so much.
5 years of class & the most clutch shot in program history. Wahoo Legend. Stay smiling, 2️⃣5️⃣
#GoHoos
I’ll take it all day long. From 12-6 to 20-7. This season has been a lot of fun! Let’s take down the Blue Devils on Saturday, what ya say Wahoos?!
