I'll agree, we did get worked by your squad, though "every dog has its day" or so goes the narrative... And the elite 8 loss still hurts, but Cooney got hot and Gill or Brogdon got tweaked, if I recall correctly.  But there are few other coaches, at this time, that have made the strides Tony Bennett has made, especially when you look at what he took over some 9 years ago.  UVa was a train wreck, a mess beyond imagination.  But the past 5 years, UVa has won an ACC tourney, 2 "regular season" championships, which as we all know, carry no weight, been a fixture in the NCAA tourney with upper echelon seeds including 2 #1 seeds.  It takes time to become elite, and I'll admit UVa is not there yet, but on the cusp.  This years team seems more athletic, more polished and more deep.  Final four ready, maybe not, but that's tbd... JB has won multiple championships, so "getting worked" might be a bit harsh, as he's a for certain first ballot H.O..'er.  I enjoy the renewed rivalry of Syracuse and UVa, which was as good as it could get back in the early-mid '80's.
