As an alum, with a current Hoo at UVA who’s in the Pep Band, I was ‘glued to the tube’ for every game. This book is fantastic as a momento of an amazing season. My sister and I each have one, and I got one as a gift for a relative. Great !

The story wrote itself. UVA fans carried each game and each close call close to their heart. They will never forget the year that was. This book captured each heartbreaking or heart attack inducing moment. From the fantastic photos, wonderful writing and the back stories for each of the key players, it will be a keepsake for generations. Regardless of what happens in the future, there will never be a season like 2019. This book is proof that yes, that really did happen! it was not just a dream.

This book is a must-have for those UVA men's basketball fans who held our breath during much of the last 10 minutes of every game this tournament and felt the vindication from the end of last season. Be prepared to wipe tears, and stop to reminisce throughout the book. I loved the picture choices and loved the coverage of the journey throughout the season.
