Not long ago, conventional wisdom painted the typical gambler as a weathered middle-aged man in a smoky casino or a bookie’s parlor. Today’s reality is starkly different. Betting — especially on sports — has undergone a radical transformation in the last few years, expanding from shady backroom activities into a highly commercialized and media-driven industry.

Boiled down, basketball is a game of possessions. Winning a game requires one, if not both, of two things — scoring points more efficiently than an opponent, or simply creating a higher number of shots. What makes the sport so compelling to millions around the world is that there is no simple formula for either.

On a warm night in November, 17 games into what had clearly become the only college season for freshman forward Nick Simmonds, time was dripping low in a deadlock. No. 1 seed Virginia and No. 9 seed North Carolina, ACC Tournament quarterfinal, knotted 1-1.

The new General Assembly convened Wednesday in Richmond after resounding Democratic victories in November’s elections. The start of the legislative session and Saturday’s inauguration of Gov.-Elect Abigail Spanberger marks just the second time this century that Democrats have held a trifecta in Virginia state government — a majority in both legislative chambers, plus control of the Governor’s office. From Spanberger’s affordability plan to major amendments which could end up on the ballot this year, there are a number of key priorities for the new legislature that could affect members of the University community.

It took freshman center Johann Grünloh one minute and 23 seconds to knock down a three-pointer for No. 16 Virginia. The squad never looked back. That three-point make blossomed into a 14-0 run featuring three more buckets from beyond the arc, forcing a Louisville timeout. The Cavaliers (15-2, 4-1 ACC) held the Cardinals (12-5, 2-3 ACC) at arms length for the entire game, never surrendering the lead en route to a 79-70 victory and their first ranked win since 2023, the first under Coach Ryan Odom.

Strolling through Charlottesville’s Downtown Mall, you are bound to spot a variety of sights, but one thing you will not find is any cars. On July 3, 1976, with the help of architect Lawrence Halprin, Charlottesville converted its East Main Street into the Downtown Mall we know of today. Crucially, Halprin took the drastic and uncommon step to block the district off from cars and create a pedestrian-only space. In doing so, he constructed a downtown that not only economically saved businesses by establishing a walkable space for customers, but also revitalized the city culturally — in a move many other U.S. cities can learn from.

The bus, its tires worn thin from nonstop hours of motion. The bus, previously basking in the natural rays of sunshine, now catches fleeting glances of moonlight, dimmed by drifting clouds in the sky. The bus, crammed with a mass of bodies at full capacity, slows and groans to a halt at John Paul Jones Arena. And from it lumbers the Virginia wrestling team.

As friends reunite and the Corner sees life again, it is easy to see Grounds, in its picturesque beauty, as the idealistic setting of an early 2000s rom-com film. The ensuing months will bring on a whirlwind of different emotions and prompt corresponding types of music — but to romanticize your semester to its fullest extent, choose a soundtrack with notes from these striking film scores.

In a release Jan. 7, The Jefferson Council — a group of conservative University alumni — shared a 239-page document which included a report on U.Va. Health, detailing misconduct under the leadership of Craig Kent, former chief executive officer of U.Va. Health, and Melina Kibbe, former dean of the School of Medicine. A spokesperson for Kent and Kibbe provided The Cavalier Daily with a Motion to Dismiss document filed in court Jan. 9 which denied similar allegations against Kent, Kibbe, Wendy Horton, former CEO of the Medical Center, and Allan Tsung, chair of the department of surgery, in a lawsuit filed in October.

Early January is a time of upheaval, where people vow to make changes in the new year to improve their livelihoods and become better versions of themselves. Fittingly, The Kid LAROI’s sophomore album, released Jan. 9, is a collection of narratives on change, depicting the swirling emotions of breakups and young love. “BEFORE I FORGET” bottles all of these feelings into songs about blame, longing and regret before they can settle and dissipate from his mind. While not the flashiest of his catalog, and lacking some of the rap elements in his previous works, “BEFORE I FORGET” is an album with a clear story to tell.

As a program coming off its first ACC title and NCAA runner-up finish, the Cavaliers’ approach to their mid-season break matters. The No. 1-ranked team has not skipped a beat this fall, finishing 10-0-1 in ACC matchups and placing no lower than second in its first three tournaments.

In his first few years with Virginia swimming, Coach Todd DeSorbo’s message to blue-chip women’s recruits was simple — come to Virginia and make history. Prior to their first national championship in 2021, phone calls were being made in a trophyless office, promising banners that didn’t yet exist.
