    Are you saying that you hate Doris?

    Great offensive basketball will always beat great defensive basketball.

    While not enjoyable to watch, at least bennett is trying and succeeding at a strategy. He isn't going to compete with the UNC's and Dukes at that level and has figured out a way to compete. Granted, i'd rather pitch a tent in Jonestown than watch a UVA game.

    I still respect someone who's gone and done something with less, than nothing with more.

    Does that mean we set basketball FORWARD 80 years because we allow the other team to score so many points? I'm with Romar!!
    Romar sucked balls vs. the Bennetts with vastly superior talent.

    Bennett has won two regular season ACC championships and an ACC tournament. All he needs is a FInal 4 to become elite.
    I meant he's not going to convince guys who go to UNC and Duke to play at UVA all of a sudden. He's a great coach who recruits to his system. I won't be shocked to see him win a national championship there.

    I would be very surprised if he won a national championship ...

    The margin for error that Virginia has over 5 games (assuming that they will get a good enough seed to be able to suffocate their 1st game more often than not - although they've found themselves in some battles before) in March is so so slim ... to me it lends them to being upset too often.

    What I will give is that because of the defense that they play they are good enough to be able to catch anybody on their best day and knock them off ... but until they become better offensively, they won't consistently win those upper end games.

    To me, it's part of the reason why Wisconsin has in general struggled over the years except for the 2-3 years where their offensive production significantly improved with the NBA talent on their roster.

    And the point isn't that they will be some sort of dynasty a la duke, unc, etc(also stated above). The point is that he could get one or two good recruits coupled with his defensive schemes to elevate a team to the top tier a la Wisconsin. It isn't all that much different of a comparison and the other UW was very close to pulling it off.

    It's a fair point that Virginia is capable ... but given the quality of competition around them in the ACC I just find it hard to imagine that they will be able to land those recruits. In this case, location really matters.
