Mike London was encouraged. Gary Patterson wasn’t. But it was Patterson’s TCU team that thumped Virginia, 27-7, Saturday in Fort Worth. “We found a way to get to 3-0,” Patterson said. “It was not pretty.” Unbeaten and ranked No. 15 nationally, TCU ran its winning streak to 11 games, the longest active streak in the […]

The Dragas-gate scandal and its tight-lipped aftermath shifted attention away from the fact that UVA President Teresa Sullivan was brought in as a fixer. A scholar with an impeccable resume and serious administrative chops armed with experience at two massive and successful state universities, Texas and Michigan, was tapped to lead a small, prestigious public […]
Virginia gained 297 yards of total offense on Saturday. Georgia Tech gained 210 on its first four plays. The Wahoos trailed 14-0 four minutes into the game, 35-7 at halftime, and 56-20 when it mercifully came to an end. Paul Johnson’s spread-option attack netted 594 yards in all, the most a Virginia team has given […]
As spotter and statistician for the Virginia Sports Radio Network, it is my job to know relevant personnel, follow the football, and relay information to our on-air voices.
