Mike joined ESPN Blacksburg on Tuesday afternoon for his weekly spot with Paul VanWagoner. There was plenty of Hokies talk and a fair share of shots taken at UVA.

I joined The Drive on ESPN Blacksburg on Tuesday afternoon with host Paul VanWagoner to discuss the past week for the Hokies and the rest of the ACC. Throughout the course of the conversation, we cover the surprising NCAA Tournament results from this past weekend, the Hokies’ performance against the Wisconsin Badgers in the First Round, and some early storylines to watch for as spring practice begins in Blacksburg on Tuesday evening.

We also discuss the embarrassing Second Round performance from the rival school up the street in Charlottesville, and what Tony Bennett needs to do to make his basketball team offensively competitive moving forward into next season. There were plenty of jabs thrown in that segment of the conversation, if you’re into listening about the demise of UVA athletics.
