Saturday's 74-58 beatdown of Virginia had finished approximately 20 minutes earlier, and Hubert Davis was just getting his first look at the final box score.
"WHAT?" he exclaimed. "Mando had 29 and 22? 29 points and 22 rebounds?"
Everyone in the room agreed that, indeed, Armando Bacot had posted 29 points and 22 rebounds.
"WHAT?" Davis asked again. "29 and 22?"
And then he described the Bacot performance as only Hubert Davis ever could. This is the Hubert Davis who somehow managed to play for the Charles Oakley-era New York Knicks without cursing, who cursed once in his Carolina assistant coaching career and followed it by apologizing to the entire team, who has pledged not to curse—and has made it, so far, this season—as a head coach because that is what Dean Smith did for him.
