Yup. Navy down two starters wins in hooville! Switched to a zone defense in the second half and held uva scoreless for a period of over 8 minutes late in the second half. Absolutely shot the lights out from deep. Great rebounding. Gutsy performance

We look good! I feel good! We should do this more often! It's gonna feel good to beat Navy. Just believing the Hokies will win makes the world more correct.

I watched a bit of it between the Hokie wins (FAM!). UVA played offense like they thought 55 would win it, and did not play defense. Every time Navy cut into the lane, they got a layup or everyone collapsed in late and gave a free look from wherever you wanted stand on the three point line. Only watched a bit, but neither team looked ACC caliber from what I saw.

Team looked great! Loved watching it! Excited for the season!
Only concern coming out of that game...rebounding. Gav eup 13 offensive rebounds. I can recall two that bounced out to perimeter, and STorm was there but running towards basket, and when he jumped for rebound it went over his head to perimeter Maine player. We may have more height, but we don't have guards that are strong rebounders, and that will make for some close games when our shooting is off.

FAM!
DOUBLE FAM!!
Maine? More like Secondary. Am I right guys????
Guess CMY wasn't lying about N'Guessan's improvement, had a fantastic game. Nice to see Ojiako making plays too!
Just glad he didn't say it was "the best he's felt about N'Guessan since" he's been at VT.
Matt!
FAM!
Was nice to see VT basketball off to a great start.
VT basketball has become must-watch.
I couldn't be happier with what Mike Young has done at Virginia Tech in the past 31 months.
Butts for Mutts, FAM
Also, feels great to see fans back in Cassell as well as some great coaching. Love CMY
I LIKE BIG MUTTS AND I CANNOT LIE FAM
Yes, it's that time, it is so back
BUTTS FOR MUTTS!
FAMtastic
I liked the way we won, we should win some more!
and
So let's have some more of that please.
fam.
Both Mike Young and Kenny Brooks get it. Very interactive with the fanbase, loved by players, and run a great program FAM.
Whit, gimme a vape of the Nape or a puff of the Huff.
Bonus fun: uva in a dogfight with navy. You hate to see it.
Ask the Kido Butai how that has historically worked out
Navy kind of ran away with it late.
Interestingly enough, don't we play them next?
You hate to hear those echoey claps in JPJ. Also what happened to their uniforms? They look awful. And the floor looks bad too there.

I LOVE MIKE YOUNG
Transitive win over UVA in game 2 FAM!
Just realized we play Navy on Friday. Let's take care of business.
Definitely need to take navy seriously a they beat down LOLuva.

We're a basketball school FAM!!!
AND the 'Hoos lost to Navy! (Knock on wood that isn't us on Friday)
Since I am damaged goods, I'm worried about the Navy game.
I cannot imagine that Navy shoots 50%+ from 3 point range again.
Additionally, I expect us to rebound better than UVA did against them, and that they won't rebound as well against us
This is why I come here...reassurance.
Just want to point out, that was the first ranked opponent Navy has beaten since David Robinson was there... in 1986.
The year I was born.
The pollsters knew what they were doing.

Must be road opponent? Because they knocked off Michigan State on opening night a few years ago as well
