(Foreword: I’m going to try to do one of these for each team. I hope I can pull it off!) Last Season: 28-8 overall, 11-5 (3rd place) in the ACC. BC lost to Duke in the ACC Tournament championship and was knocked off by Villanova in OT in the third round of the ACC Tournament…
Do you hear the sneaker squeaks? The bouncing balls? Basketball is here! The first ACC game is tomorrow night when Hampton visits Maryland. Most other teams get started this weekend. I can’t believe we’re here already! The Duke Basketball Report has a quick look at the early games along with a few good links. I…
With only four weeks to go and the division races still way up in the air, this is a pretty important weekend of ACC football. So I think it’s time for my (first of the year!) weekend preview. First things first, let’s take a quick look at the standings: ATLANTIC DIVISION School Conference Pct. Overall…
I apologize in advance for this post. It’s not really a sports one. Feel free to move along unless you care about things like blogging.

David Glenn has a post up today with the details that he knows about the early stages of the UNC coaching search. The most interesting section is the one where he talks about the coaches who have initiated contact with Carolina. Two names stood out on that list – Rich Rodriguez, who talked about the…
Boston College – The Eagles are very quietly having an outstanding season. With all the turmoil in Miami, Tallahassee, Raleigh, Chapel Hill and Charlottesville, it seems like BC’s 7-1 record just isn’t interesting enough. Or maybe it’s because they are – you know – in Boston. Either way, BC’s win down in Tally was easily…
If it weren’t for YouTube, no one would have ever heard this tree fall, as it fell in ESPNU’s forest. An announcer, evidently Brian Kinchen, was talking about how you have to use your soft hands to catch a football when he decided to punctuate his lesson be observing that “that’s kinda gay.” Whoops?
