Is today the day where we get ACC POY, COY, and All-ACC teams?
I agree - and all of the bracket projections are BEFORE any potential bid stealers. I think we're on the wrong side of the First Four out right now. I don't think just 2 tourney wins gets it done, especially since if we beat Pitt they probably aren't a tourney team either. I think we need to upset UNC, a likely #2 seed, to be in. Otherwise we're looking at a #1 or a #2 seed in the NIT Tourney.This is setting up a lot like 2022 when we thought "all we have to do is beat BC and we should be in", but we were MUCH further from the bubble than any of us realized.
That's lame - I enjoyed seeing the different colors in blocks all over the arena spanning from the lower bowl to the upper deck in each block. But really no way to fairly split them anymore unless you rotated by year.ACC Tournament tickets aren't in large blocks anymore, they are spread out in much smaller allotments throughout the arena for each school, so each school gets tickets in all price zones.
Hasn’t been like that for years. With the byes especially, those days are long over.That's lame - I enjoyed seeing the different colors in blocks all over the arena spanning from the lower bowl to the upper deck in each block.

That's a good pointMeh - The 2022 team had 5 total Q1 + Q2 wins on selection sunday with a NET of 48, 2 Q3 losses and a Non conference SOS of 350.
The 2024 team has 8 total Q1 + Q2 wins with a chance to earn another against Pitt with a win on Wednesday. Current Net of 38 with 1 Q3 loss and a noncon SOS of 255.

I fully expect Uva to go 0-1 with a loss to Clemson. Somehow will be labeled as “safe”, but agree don’t believe they should be.Our team blew some easier chances to put this to bed. However...
If we win 2 in DC and VA doesn't, if there are 4 ACC teams in, we deserve to be one of them.
I don’t think there’s a large enough difference between those résumés.Meh - The 2022 team had 5 total Q1 + Q2 wins on selection sunday with a NET of 48, 2 Q3 losses and a Non conference SOS of 350.

Maryland finally won their argument...Maybe this is mentioned somewhere in this thread and I missed it, but what in the world is the tournament doing in DC?
The next 10 ACC tournaments will be in NC. Does that make you happy? The ACCT was last played in DC in 2016. UNC beat UVA in a great atmosphere.Maybe this is mentioned somewhere in this thread and I missed it, but what in the world is the tournament doing in DC?
the one play where he caught the ball on the roll, faked a pass, and drove in for an easy dunk shows me that he has the tools to be decent if he can put it all togetherSo, the quality of Marsh's minutes would seem to be improving. Eye test only. I have not looked at +/- stats. Sure did appreciate his effort Saturday.

was always surprising to me how bad his D is given how athletic he is for his size
