Invasion of the Body Snatchers



Who stole our team and replaced them with these guys?

New coach; start of a complete program rebuild; wait a couple years and we could see results; picked to finish 14 (at best) out of 16 in the ACC; definitely a losing record this year (both ACC and overall); maybe, maybe win 3 or 4 ACC games. Maybe.

Here we are - with 2 ACC games to go -

20 - 9 overall; 10 - 6 ACC

ACC standings are Virginia (#1 in the country); Dook (#5), UNCheats (#9) and tied for 4th - NC State and Clemson (#18).

We've beat UNCheats, Dook, Clemson and have lost to UNCheats, Clemson and UVA. We've also beat Arizona when they were ranked #2 (currently #19).

I was kind of hoping we'd be good enough to go to the NIT - maybe get to see a couple more home games. Turns out, we're better than that.

Looks like we're going to the Big Dance instead.

2 regular season games to go - then the ACC Tournament - then seeding for the NCAA Tournament.

A lot can happen in the next couple of weeks.

This is my favorite time of year.

Personally I find them rather boring. Win by 20 points? And the other day a similar spread. State just can’t get it together.
