In 2022, head coach Joanna Hardin led the ‘Hoos to their first winning season in a decade. She followed that up with another breakthrough in 2023, getting ..read more

Photo by Michael Hickey/Getty Images After an up and down five years since the national championship, it’s time to make some changes. March is an exhausting month for UVA basketball fans. It always is. The Virginia Cavaliers men’s basketball program reached heights few ever thought it would just five years ago. Somehow in the span of five seasons since, the program has become the laughing stock of college basketball and the sports world, culminating in Tuesday’s embarrassing First Four loss to the Colorado State Rams. It’s not that UVA is a bad team, or a bad program for that matter. Virginia ..read more

Rick Osentoski-USA TODAY Sports The Cavaliers scored just 14 first-half points in a 25-point defeat. The Virginia Cavaliers unceremoniously bowed out of the NCAA Tournament in their First Four matchup with Colorado State, as the Rams jumped out to an early lead thanks to an ice cold UVA start and never let the ‘Hoos back into the game. The game wasn’t as close as the 67-42 final score indicated, with essentially 15 minutes of garbage time to close out a depressing blowout loss which ended Virginia’s season one win away from the Round of 64. The team’s ice cold offense was the story all night l ..read more

Chris Jones-USA TODAY Sports Catching up with all eight former ‘Hoos still playing college hoops. In the era of the transfer portal and unprecedented player movement, it’s easy to find reasons to root for — or against — teams with former Virginia players on their roster. Especially following last season’s frontcourt exodus which saw every returning power forward or center not named Ryan Dunn enter the portal, there are plenty of ex-’Hoos out and about in college basketball, including three on NCAA Tournament rosters: Isaac Traudt at Creighton, Kadin Shedrick at Texas and Casey Morsell at NC St ..read more

Photo by Lance King/Getty Images Previewing Tuesday night’s First Four matchup between the Wahoos and the Rams. Raise your hand if you thought the Virginia Cavaliers were getting into the tourney. My hand is not up. I was not even watching Selection Sunday, disappointed as I was. A nice bonus to get in, and a reason to watch the First Four games on Tuesday night. Colorado State is the First Four opponent, although they rank far ahead of Virginia in most advanced metrics. CSU is 38th on KenPom vs 69th for Virginia. CSU is 45th on Bart Torvik vs 57th for Virginia. The Rams have wins over Creight ..read more
