They don't redeem themselves until they win a damn championship, last 6 seasons they've entered the tournament one of the top teams, favorites, in the pecking order and underachieve and lose before the Final Four mostly to teams they're ostensibly superior to. This is actually emblematic of Virginia mens basketball as a whole because, when Ralph Sampson played there, they were generally always the top 1-2 teams in the country yet always lost to teams they were superior to in the tourney with exception to 1981 North Carolina in the Final Four despite UVA possessing the better W-L record I mean it's a Dean Smith-coached team y'all they get a pass for that.

I think they’ve definitely redeemed themselves now.

And I’ll stick by my earlier statement in saying that their title the year after the most historic upset in the tourney is one of the all time great college hoops stories.
