Not likely to love him for the next two FTs though. Wow, he made the first.

Great job, Sencire, running the floor. Love it.
Good things have happened with Harris on the floor. Leave him in as long as possible.
For the first time ever, the Freshmen class is actually playing up the the expectations of the IL recruiting thread.
if we could rebound we'd be up 10

Epps just showing out right now. Virginia is a little too slow to guard him without help. Playing really well.
Two pretty good teams....this game is a real treat.
If we can get some rebounds we are golden
They must have 10+ second chance points.
Shannon getting attention but he’s not forcing things up he has 5 assists very impressive
Getting absolutely DESTROYED on the glass!

Offense looks great. Defense is solid, but rebounding is a problem.
Yes rebounding is a problem. They may exceed UCLA’s 16 offensive rebounds.
giving way too many offfensive rebounds. Same thing Friday night. Cut those down, and it should be fine with this defense.
Result of all of the switching we do?
UVA is taking away TSJ and Dainja. So .. RJ and Epps with 8 each. TSJ with 5 assists.
If a few open threes start dropping, we got this.
If a few open threes start dropping, we got this.
Honestly, they've been better. Freshmen do not step out on the court this ready to play against quality competition this early in the season. Truly remarkable what we're seeing out there.
Vander Plas impacting the game on the offensive glass. He's playing physical ball.

So one month into his freshman year, Epps already can't be stopped from finishing at the rim. What is his ceiling? The moon?
