Yesterday, we shared ESPN.com ratings for football coaches based on their playing careers. Today, the site ranks the basketball coaches in the NCAA Tournament based on their playing days.
In this article from Whitelaw Reid of the Daily Progress, Dick Bennett discusses his son Tony’s #UVAMBB squad, which despite having already lost three more games than all of last season, the elder Bennett thinks is the best it’s been in his son’s seven-year tenure.
#GoPats
Former Cavalier Chris Long is teamless no longer. After being released earlier this NFL offseason by the Rams, Long was signed yesterday by the Patriots, a move that is lauded by ESPN.com’s New England Patriots reporter Mike Reiss.
#UVATF NCAA Champion Henry Wynne, who won the mile race at last week’s national championship, threw out the first pitch at yesterday’s #UVABase game and spoke with CBS19 afterward.
According to this piece in Baseball America, #UVABase junior pitcher Connor Jones has moved up to being the No. 10 prospect in the nation. Hudson Belinsky breaks down the improvements he and the scouts have seen in Jones already this season.
