"Even with departures as sig- nificant as those of Malcolm Brogdon and Anthony Gill (and, with all due respect, Mike To- bey), is there any doubt that Tony Bennett is capable of tying together yet another complex, balanced, defensively locked-in UVA team? Of course there isn't. Still, Perrantes has the most im- portant role of all: the natural next-leader-up for a group that lost both its straight-laced Cap- tain America (Brogdon) and its joke-a-second Iron Man (Gill). … After a breakout season, he'll be more important than ever in every regard." — ESPN.com's Eamonn Brennan on naming fourth-year guard London Perrantes among college basketball's five players most important to their teams "It was a great way to start the year, winning one of the most elite fields in college golf. For our guys to shoot 12 of 15 rounds at par or better and to set the tournament record is so impressive." — Cavaliers head coach Bowen Sargent after his squad won the Carpet Capital Collegiate Sept. 11, carding a 31-under-par 833 over three rounds to break the event's scoring record by eight shots (841, Alabama, 2006) "I appreciate the trust that they have placed in me, embracing the new approach. I appreciate the resiliency and the men they're becoming, because this is not easy and they faced a lot of challenges today, ups and downs and in betweens, and I think there will be more of those until we gain maturity and execution and consistency. But I'm proud of our team ,and I'm proud of how they hung in there together. I'm certainly not saying we have arrived, but it's a nice start today." — Football coach Bronco Mendenhall after his team's 49-35 win over Central Michigan Sept. 24 for his first victory at UVA and 100th as a head coach HOO'S TALKING PHOTO COURTESY UVA
