ACCT Open Thread – Welcome to the ACC, Virginia Tech
N&O’s Joe Giglio: UNC finished the game with 21 attempts from the free-throw line (hitting 15), while VT finished 8 of 11. It’s not like VT took a ton of 3s and the totals were skewed by shot selection. UNC and VT each took 19 3s. And don’t confuse me here, I’m not saying UNC […]
A Shitty End to a Shitty Season
Maryland 74, NC State 69. That’s your final. Don’t let the margin let you believe that NC State played well, smart, or with any enthusiasm or sense of urgency. Here is Sidney Lowe’s program in a nutshell – the only guy who consistently played hard and as if he had a brain in his head […]

2009 ACCT Preview and Analysis
Another year, another preview from me. If you are interested in my track record, click here and here. 1. North Carolina Realistic Chance to Win? Absolutely. Once again, the Holes are the most talented and best-coached team in the ACC. Like most championship teams, they also have a fantastic “glue guy” in Danny Green, who […]
Georgia Tech barely misses mark for ACC futility
The 2008-2009 version of the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets finished ACC play with a 2-14 record after losing on a buzzer beater at Boston College on Saturday. The Yellow Jackets joined an ‘exclusive’ club of horrible teams in ACC history who lost 14 games in a season. Clemson was 0-14 in 1955 Georgia Tech was […]
Cousins to Memphis; Is John Wall Next?
SI.com has the news and SLAM has the quotes and the N&O has it on Monday. “Me and my family came to a decision after talking about it. We just thought it was the best place for me to be,†said Cousins this morning. “Everything about the school, the city, whole visit was impressive. I […]

Second Half Offensive Meltdown Dooms Pack
Stop me if you heard this one before – but after building a solid first half lead, the Wolfpack offense goes into a coma for the entire second half, losing 72-64. At least it was just shitty and braindead play, not effort (unlike the Maryland game). State will be seeded 10th, and square off against […]
