from the virginia Cavalier's wiki :
An unofficial moniker, the Wahoos, or 'Hoos for short, based on the University's rallying cry "Wah-hoo-wah!" is also commonly used.

I assume you mean in reference to the University of Virginia. Hoos is short for Wahoos or Wahoowa. It comes from the baseball rivalry between UVa and Washington & Lee back in the 1890s. W&L fans called UVa fans a bunch of rowdy wahoos, which UVa adopted as a badge of honor.

Anybody wanna start our own battle cry? I'm thinking "Thululu!" or something.
