VIRGINIA RUMORS & GOSSIP
Virginia's Brogdon steadying force for No. 2 Cavaliers
The player who teammates call `Uncle Malcolm' is usually right in the middle of No. 2 Virginia's success.
He's rarely the guy who winds up on the highlight shows, but Malcolm Brogdon has helped the Cavaliers to a 19-0 record.
He's not the guy with a show-stopping dunk or a behind-the-back pass that causes the crowd to roar. He's not flying in for a blocked shot or pumping his fists...

Virginia sneaks by Hokies, should fans be concerned?
My undaunted belief in this team was finally shaken a little on Sunday afternoon.
In case you missed it or drank it away immediately afterward, an undermanned and outgunned Virginia Tech team ran off 16 consecutive points (as part of a greater 30-9 run that spanned both halves) and went up 43-33 in front of a rabid crowd, and we were certifiably on the ropes. It was bad, but luckily...

Virginia Basketball: UVA Showcases Defense Verse GT

Watch: Virginia’s Malcolm Brogdon hits a sick reverse lay-up

Virginia fundamentally sound, but these Cavs ain't boring
May I submit a name for your consideration?
Tony Bennett, head coach of the 18-0, second-ranked, ACC-leading Virginia Cavaliers, for national coach of the year.
Look, I can hear your groaning already: But Virginia is everything that ails college basketball! They’re no fun, you say. They’re the most boring good team in college basketball, you say. And if the way you rate ...

College Basketball: Virginia remains unbeaten behind the sweet science of defense
It is hard to make the Notre Dame and Virginia offenses look bad. No one had been able to do so prior to Saturday. However, the proverbial rock met the hard place when the two squared off in South Bend.
Coming into the game, Notre Dame was leading the nation in offensive efficiency while Virginia was seventh. It is safe to say that these numbers were altered slightly following the...

Third ’16 pledge for Virginia, Sacha Killeya-Jones
It’s fair to say things are going quite swimmingly for the Virginia Cavaliers, as of late. A terrific 2013-2014 season has been followed up on by a yet to be defeated 2014-2015 squad, and it’s fair to assume head coach Tony Bennett has the Virginia program headed towards a deep NCAA tournament run this year. ...

ACC Countdown: No. 14 Virginia
Does Virginia have the worst talent level in the ACC? Not at all. But the reason the Cavaliers are here is because they've had talent above their on-field results before under head coach Mike London, who came in with a bang in 2011 with a stellar recruiting class. He's continued that trend, including signing a very good class this year. But in the last two seasons, with said...

Harris still the engine that drives Virginia's run to Sweet 16
RALEIGH, N.C. -- If you don't know about top-seeded Virginia, which advanced to the Sweet 16 with a resounding 78-60 win over No. 8 Memphis that wasn't really that close, you should.
And you will soon enough, as the Cavaliers travel to Madison Square Garden next week for the East regionals, facing a team that many experts have pegged to win it all -- Michigan State.

Three Hits: Virginia survives scare from Coastal Carolina
RALEIGH, N.C. -- Every year, at least one top seed has that moment where it seems like they will be the first to fall to a 16-seed. They make a run, get the crowd or viewers excited, and it's not quite enough.
Virginia had watched higher seeds get upset for nearly two full days before the Cavaliers got their chance to play, and then they were nearly a victim themselves.
