VT and Miami were the big plays on football and they didn't work out. It is what it is. I've already laughed at Stanford, Cal, and SMU. That was just pure desperation from a dying P5 conference. We're the new PAC-12, we're just in a lot worse shape than the PAC-12 was.

I know you’re upset about today’s UNC loss, but if you insult my team I’m coming back at you…

VT Football has won the ACC football title FOUR times, including in their 1st year.

VT Basketball won the ACC title in 2022 and we beat UNC and Duke in the process.

Miami has some huge creds too, so I don’t understand why you’d suggest those programs are dragging down the ACC either.  They aren’t.  The ACC needs to get out of it’s own way.

You're not getting what I'm saying. The ACC added Miami and VT precisely to avoid what has happened - basically becoming largely irrelevant in football. VT and Miami just aren't consistently nationally relevant anymore. I don't blame them for dragging the ACC down, they just didn't provide the lift expected. The ACC is gonna get out of its own way by dying. It's circling the drain.

UNC football has won the ACC five times in 70+ years, the most recent being 1980.

1980.

Virginia Tech has won the ACC football conference championship FOUR times: 2004, 2007, 2008, 2010 and y’all had a 60 year head-start.

And VT is a strong favorite to win the ACC again this year.

Sure, we’re the weak link in the ACC.

      All signs point to legit. We’ve been way better than our record the last few years it’s just we’ve had brutal injury luck. Also I’ve watched nearly every game this year and 3 things have stood out to me even when healthy from early in the year to now: 1. Early on Lee had some brutal rotations and situational coaching but he’s improved a ton there. We lost some close ones early we should’ve won. Sure most our recent games have been blowouts but in close games we’ve improved a ton there. 2. Defense. Overall team defense has improved so much, it’s not just hot shooting winning games. This D is absolutely a real trend and sustainable. LaMelo in particular has gone from flat out bad defensively to above average. We have so much length we always should’ve been good defensively but it took time for guys to buy in and really hone in on it which they have.   3. Pretty much all our young guys have taken strides forward. Moose’s development as a passer has been insane, Miller is putting it all together to be an elite 3 tier scorer able to hit 3s, mid range and finish at the rim. LaMelo still some poor shot selection but has cut the turnovers considerably. Kon has been a great shooter all year but has steadily improved in other aspects of the game too.      It has definitely been surprising how quickly it all came together out of nowhere but really none of it surprises me. We’ve been building towards this for years now.
