Yesterday the ‘Hoos brought home a host of ACC honors, with Tony Bennett taking coach of the year honors and De’Andre Hunter was the conference’s Defensive Player of the Year and an All-ACC First Team nod alongside Kyle Guy. Ty Jerome made All-ACC Second Team. We also took a look at Virginia’s steady No. 2 ranking this week going into the NCAA Tournament and what’s at stake for the Cavaliers.
