Tony Bennett introduced as UVA’s new basketball coach
Today was UVA’s unveiling of it’s new men’s basketball coach, Tony Bennett. The whole festivities included a packed dining room at JPJ full of reporters, tv news folks, and a handful of photogs and lasted a little over an hour. I was really impressed with Mr. Bennett and liked that he actually answered the reporters questions with a degree of thoughtfulness and sincerity. It was cool that his family was there too — they seemed pretty happy with the whole thing, although I’m sure his kids were getting a little bored as the questions wore on.
Although it didn’t happen this year, I have a feeling that Tony Bennett will get the Cavaliers into the NCAA bracket in the not too distant future. Having led Washington State to the Sweet Sixteen a couple years ago, Virginia fans should be prepared for much of the same!
Cheers!
