Virginia Tech basketball: ESPN analyst praises Cassell Coliseum

Dan Shulman is one of ESPN’s top play-by-play men for college basketball. Shulman generally gets some of the best games of the week, and he’s a busy man during basketball season.

Shulman was on the call for Virginia Tech’s 62-53 win over archrival Virginia Monday night at Cassell Coliseum. Cassell was rocking, often getting after UVA guard Kihei Clark who shot an airball early in the game, and fans never let him forget about it.

Monday’s atmosphere was extraordinary, and Shulman agreed, saying, “I haven’t been to a louder place this year.”

That’s high praise from someone who’s been to some of the best venues in the country.
