SALT LAKE CITY — Well, this is embarrassing. Bronco Mendenhall, the guy who won games but not hearts at BYU, has Virginia off to a 5-1 start. BYU is 1-6 and reeling.
Talk about salt in the wound.
Suddenly, those eight to nine wins each season look pretty good.
After Saturday’s road win over North Carolina, the Cavaliers danced in the locker room, with assistant Mark Atuaia and Mendenhall leading the celebration.
