Don't take this wrong...but you must be new here
I thought I heard the announcers say that Murray had only made 1 shot all season before this game. Same with the Gardner guy earlier in the half that hit 2 3s, that was his first attempts made all year. Scouting report says they aren't a primary threat from 3, therefore, they get more open looks.I don't understand why we didn't hold out for final shot. I'd much rather the offense win or lose the game at the end.
I'll take a win either way though
They haven't shot the ball very well from 3 this year until the 2nd half tonight. First half Iowa was more aggressive on the defensive end and Virginia had to take more contested shots. In the 2nd half they guarded like they have in the past and gave up uncontested 3's..
Well that brings up something else I don't get....why do coaches not call a to there so often?? Seems crazy to me. I just don't get this sport sometimes
Joe picked up his dribble and couldn't find a open pass so he put it upI don't understand why we didn't hold out for final shot. I'd much rather the offense win or lose the game at the end.
I'll take a win either way though
Per Dolphin
That I can get...youre saying Fran probably wanted the last shot and Joet mistake forced him to shoot. Clearly the plan wasn't have him shoot....I'd hope lol
I think Carson McCorkle. Iowa recruited him a couple years ago.
Joe drove on their big shot blocker. He backed off so Joe just banked a 10-footer. It.was.marvelous!

Brings up a third down and ... uh ... uh ...
You’re confusing me with somebody else because I have no idea what you’re talking about. I never threw in the towel 😂You said you guys lost the game.
You guys gave us all we could handle though.
Joe T with a game winning shot and PMac with a game winning block. Nice to see the young boys step up after old men Bohannon, Rebraca and Keegan carried us most of the game. Truly a team victory!
He wasn’t the first option and he took a good shot. He makes those shots often. If he passes it out to reset the offense Iowa likely puts up a desperation last second shot that doesn’t go in. Joe had a game tonight that should give him a lot of confidence going forward.
Very gracious quote from Bo.
What was awesome is that it looked like VA was going to get a put back win at buzzer,
and the next thing is the ball is hammered into the VA bench…
the last 2 turns of fate in the last 2 tenths of a seconds of the game.
and the there was a moment of silence as the VA fans tried to reconcile in their minds what They had just seen, as they watched the ball bouncing away…
priceless
That game winner is Joey T's best shot, and a shot he usually makes. Great at getting inside and getting that little jumper. You don't overlook such a close and easy shot at that part of the game. Gotta think your boys can play 7 seconds of good defense.
He had no choice but to shoot there. I understand.
I'm just wondering if the plan was to shoot early. The announcer said it would be wise but Im not so sure.
Technically, every basket by every player was the difference tonight
Your trust was well placed. Joe T just took matters into his own hands....
It was also a good shot because Rebraca was under the hoop against one of UVA’s guards while the bigs were sucked out covering him. High chance of an offensive rebound even if he missed. Really great game from Toussaint all around
That Rebound over the back by UVA
gardner is not a 3pt shooter and he was 2/2. uva murray is obviously a shooter---but he had apparently only made 1 before the season. No reason to leave him wide open.
