That loss to Georgia is going to be a real negative on our NCAA tourney resume, but at least it didn't happen in Blacksburg... that'd be even worse. I think there are some positives to take away from the UGA game, including the continued good form of Hank Thorns. If we're going to be successful this year, we need him to play well... he plays too many minutes to shoot as badly as he was shooting. I remember watching his high school videos on YouTube and wondering what happened to his ability to drive to the hoop and hit the open 3... I know the defenses he faces are much better, but he still looked like a completely different player once he was on the VT team. The opposing defenses seemed to rattle him easily. The last two games, he has looked confident and has finished his drives... I hope to see more of that.
