The UNCA Bulldogs lost tonight to VMI, 97-75. It was the third straight loss for the Bulldogs, who started the season 18-4 and had been undefeated in the Big South Conference until the losing streak.
Now the Bulldogs, once being talked about as a possible NCAA Tournament 14 or 15 seed, aren’t such a sure thing. UNCA’s Kenny George, the tallest man in college basketball at 7-foot-7, has been battling knee injuries and their star guard Bryan Smithson has also been struggling with injuries and a shooting slump. George played four minutes Saturday night and had 4 points.
Let’s hope UNCA can get it back together and win on Wednesday against Radford.

Kenny George needs to retire from basketball before he gets really hurt. His legs can barely support him anyway; all this running is going to destroy his knees. Guys like him aren’t meant to play basketball.
