Anderson, Nolte, Tobey figure to be contributors for 2012-2013 UVA squad
It's not just those wearing orange-and-blue glasses who are excited about next year's UVA basketball first-year class. Drew Cannon of Basketball Prospectus has high expectations for Justin Anderson, Evan Nolte, and Mike Tobey, all members of the ESPNU Top 100. Cannon projects the stats we will see next season from each of the three future Hoos (and other new ACCers) in this post on KenPom's site. None of them are expected to eclipse Mike Scott's 100% shooting percentage (or something) from last season, but I'll take it. Hat tip to @rmj_equals_hero for passing this along!

18. Virginia Commitments: Justin Anderson (47), Evan Nolte (78), Mike Tobey (84), Teven Jones, Taylor Barnette "A solid class of guys who fit well in Tony Bennett's system. Anderson is an athlete and born leader, while Nolte and Tobey will bring much-needed offense." Even at No. 18, the Hoos are only the fifth-best ACC school, as six teams land in their Top 25.

Tony Bennett (coach: Virginia; player: Wisconsin-Green Bay): For all of the great shooters on the list -- for all of the great shooters in the history of the college game -- you might be surprised to learn which among them holds the NCAA's all-time record for career 3-point field goal percentage. Yep: That's Tony Bennett, who finished his career under his father, Dick Bennett, at Green Bay with a 49.7 percent 3-point mark (the highest among any player with at least 200 attempts and 2.0 3s made per game).

So we’re hungry. Never satisfied. You’re one game from playing for the conference championship and you can’t sit back on what you did before. Now we have to do everything again, do it over and do it better.
