Hoos Brew 6/26: '68 Was Great

Today, the 1968 offensive attack is still so impressive.

What are we serving up in today's Brew?

🏈 High-flying offense
⚾️ Got their shot
​⚔️ And much, much more!

📈 STOCK UP

The Hoos were led that year by ACC Player and Athlete of the Year Frank Quayle, whose No. 24 jersey is now retired at UVA. Quayle ran for 1,213 yards and 12 touchdowns in 1968, and also caught a pair of touchdowns.

Only 68 more days until Virginia football!

🔼 Got Their Shot. The NBA Draft isn’t the only way to make your NBA dream come true - Virginia’s Kihei Clark and Armaan Franklin are both getting their shot in other ways!

Soon after the NBA Draft, Clark signed on to play with the Utah Jazz summer league team in hopes of making an impression with the organization.

Franklin has agreed to an Exhibit-10 contract with the Denver Nuggets, and gets a shot at continuing the momentum from earning All-ACC Tournament honors this past season.

🔼 The Chosen Juan. Check this out…

Virginia alum Juan Thornhill has brought a championship mindset with him to the Cleveland Browns this season.
