[QUOTE="Deleted member 631370, post: 1382958"] It was certainly a big upset, no doubt. The biggest ever. And Bennett can fairly be criticized for not living up to the expectations in the tournament. But c'mon......it's a tad bit ridiculous to suddenly assert that Bennett isn't a great coach because of this loss. Just look at his last 5 years.....and that's in the ACC, with a team that is probably one the lesser talented teams in that league. This doesn't even consider the success he had at Washington State, which is a total basketball backwater. The man can flat out coach. 2013–14 Virginia 30–7 16–2 1st NCAA Sweet Sixteen 2014–15 Virginia 30–4 16–2 1st NCAA Round of 32 2015–16 Virginia 29–8 13–5 T–2nd NCAA Elite Eight 2016–17 Virginia 23–11 11–7 T–5th NCAA Round of 32 2017–18 Virginia 31–3 17–1 1st NCAA Round of 64 [/QUOTE]
