ACC Media Days wrapped on Thursday in Charlotte, North Carolina, meaning we’re one step closer to football season. Virginia head coach Bronco Mendenhall took his Bryces — Perkins and Hall — with him to the event, and the trio went through the parade of media availability and promo spots.
The Cavaliers are entering Mendenhall’s fourth season with Virginia with expectations, a welcome change from some of the doom-and-gloom that oh-so-often precluded August in Charlottesville. Virginia finished last season 8-5, giving the Hoos a winning season for the first time since 2011 — Mike London’s second season. Things ended on a high note as the Cavaliers defeated the SEC’s South Carolina, 28-0, in the Belk Bowl (Virginia’s first bowl win since the 2005 Music City Bowl).
