They spent a lot more than $10M
For the most part our fans don’t understand how much we are outperforming the amount of $ we have spent this year. The players and experience make a huge difference as well as experience and strength. 60% of our top 10 players are freshmen and sophomores. Add the injuries to Johnson and Lawal and it is amazing we have done so well all things considered.

If I counted correctly, UVa is 6-2 in 5-point or fewer/OT games; VT is 7-4**
