If nothing else, this should be a fascinating season. Almost impossible to know how it's going to go. If Devin stays healthy, Coron shoots it well, CMM takes a step forward... We could totally be a good team. There's talent with at least a little bit of depth everywhere but the 5. We're a team that beat NC State and Miami with CJ Harris only hitting 3 field goals combined in the 2nd halves of those games. No more excuses about youth, lack of talent, etc... We finally have the bodies and some experience. All [Redacted] players minus Travis.
This is also a team that got swept by Georgia Tech and Maryland, and somehow managed to win zero ACC road games. Hardly seams possible. Beat FSU by almost 30 at home, turn around 2 weeks later and lose to them by double digits. That team might top out at 12 wins.
Outside of North Carolina, Syracuse, and Duke, there are no sure things in the ACC next year - and we only have to play Syracuse once. Exactly the kind of year Prosser used to push middle-of-the-pack talent up into the top 5 or 6.
I could see us melting down, losing to a horrible OC opponent, the "Fire [Redacted]" chants ringing through the rafters by mid-season... Or what I think is a pretty damn good group of players could come together, despite the coaching or lack thereof, and take a big step forward.
Either way, it's the judgment year for [Redacted], it's a total toss-up in the conference with Notre Dame, Pitt, and Syracuse entering... Even if we suck the Wellman fallout will be crazy to watch... I'm an optimist so I think I said 18 wins, but overall just pass the popcorn and watch this thing blow up.
