    This was one of the most memorable NCAA tournament stories in recent memories. I love Tony Bennett's leadership and how the team responded to win the title that year. The last 3 games especially were a storybook ending for this group. Go Hoos!

    What happened to Virginia that people never talk about vs UMBC was their best player (#4 pick in nba draft) De’Andre Hunter was injured and didn’t play at all, Kyle Guy the 2nd best player was also injured but played regardless, unfortunate wasn’t healthy enough to be a factor
    No I’m not making excuses, the upset still happened and we Virginia fans own it as it was a ‘ painful gift’ that took us to National Championships this year but those are 2 hugeee factors that don’t get mentioned enough, losing 2 best players in a 5v5 is indeed very significant
