As the longest standing ACC fan on this board.... figured I would go ahead and post this.
No need.! Just find a chair and sit yourself down.As the longest standing ACC fan on this board.... figured I would go ahead and post this.
Coach Q may have another rant in him.
Are you saying that you expect Duke to finish higher than 7th? What's your prediction?If the predicted order of finish ends up being correct... he wont be the only one ranting View attachment 47233 View attachment 47233 View attachment 47233 View attachment 47233
I already said I will paint my face blue on a work day if Duke finishes ahead of Norte Dame in the ACC standings.Hard to believe a top 5 in the ACC without Notre Dame.
I was on campus awhile back for the first time in a few years, and I just couldn’t get my head around all the B1G banners. It’s just . . . wrong.I miss being in the ACC.

I would be shocked if ND finishes any lower than 4th, and I think they’re more likely 2nd or 3rd.

In the ACC "All Access" show about ND WBB, Michaela Mabrey says that she thinks Gilbert should be their leading scorer this year. I also think Vaughn is ready for a major leap and will anchor their interior. Prohaska will be a glue player, most likely off the bench. Peoples and Brunelle will also get plenty of minutes and contribute meaningfully; I believe one or both will be in the starting lineup by January.I'm interested to see who out of Vaughn, Prohaska, and Gilbert can step up for Notre Dame. Reminds me a little bit of Mississippi State, as 12.6 PPG from Holmes, Danberry, Bibby, and Scott in 17-18 turned into 40.1 PPG in 18-19. If Notre Dame can get a similar jump from 3-4 of their returnees + Sniezek and Walker + Peoples and Brunelle, I think they'll be more than okay.

Having McCowan controlling the paint and attracting triple teams sure helped. Howard on the boards helped too.
McGraw says ND will score in the 60s this season. Last year's team, with Turner and Shepard controlling the boards and the paint, gave up 67 ppg.
