Agree thar Purdue and UConn will be tough particularly UConn. However Burns unconventionality may be what gives Edey trouble. NC State has 3 big men which helps too. Duke only had one good one. One question that continues for me is why did NC State struggle so much during the year?

I will be really shocked if ESPN cancels the ACC TV teal. it is a good deal for them particularly given current inflation. I expect a renewal.

Front them - they get muscled otherwise. I expect they will do that to UNC.

We used to call guys like him "Empty Suits". Sound good but when you look under the suit there is nothing there.

Hiring and firing assistants including recruiting personnel. Distilling the need to practice hard and toughness to his players. My biggest concern with him is he is not a tactician/coordinator like a Kiffin or CPJ so needs to have good assistant coaches. Assistant coaches come and go so...

I remember CPJ screamed at him get off the d!!! field before he kicked his a##. While our offensive line did kick their a##. It was a proud day.

Couple weird games - cold but important 6-3 win over Va, Tech in 1990. Had to have that game late in year on 11-12-90. Sisson field goal at 5 minutes to tie and 38 yarder to win with 8 seconds left. UGA and Gary Lee kickoff return for a TD in the fog in 1985 20-16. Four better games attended...

51-48

All were good but #67 was bad$$$.

Blackshear - and not complaining about coaching but would like to have seen what we could have done with him if we could have let him drive into Ndonga with no fouls - couldn't do that due to foul trouble - or see what Gapare could do with him. I was happy with how we played.

in 16 Thomas avoided a sack and ran 70 yards from the end zone - he was unreal that day.

That CDS has been able to build a team with this much athletism in one year. CJP teams were so outmanned, It is very refreshing,

Maybe I'm wrong but I think the issue is that adding more schools in the SEC just dilutes payouts for existing members. Adding FSU is not going to increase the SEC's TV contract. And why do that? Oklahoma and Texas did add TV's. As usual, money rules.

Yeah - well wake me when they pay the half billion.
