Greetings, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) fans. Hope you are enjoying the unseasonably great weather here – especially in the Washington, DC area – we are really lucky.

The ACC, simply put, is having an astonishing 2016 NCAA Tournament. The numbers speak for themselves – 6 Sweet 16, 4 Elite 8 Teams, and guaranteed 2 Final 4 Teams, and a team in the national title. An entire side of the Elite 8 bracket is ACC teams. The recording set marks range from financial …

Two pretty surprising job openings are now available in the ACC – Georgia Tech and Pittsburgh. Jamie Dixon is headed to TCU to talk over his at alma mater. In my opinion, this won’t end well for Dixon. Dixon is a good coach, but not a great recruiter. It will be tougher to recruit to …

With the ACC sending a record 6 teams to the Sweet 16, it’s been a great week of basketball for the conference. The ACC offices in Greensboro must be sharing high fives across the office, and I”m pretty sure John Swofford made a fist pump after each ACC win. North Carolina, Virginia, Miami, Duke, Syracuse, …

Let’s get right to it – Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) institutions are 10-1 going into Sunday’s games. North Carolina, Duke, Miami, and Virginia are headed to the Sweet 16.

Going to back to last season the ACC is a sterling 23-6 in the NCAA Basketball tournament. The conference was 17-5 last season and a solid 6-1 to start this year. Actually let’s change that from solid to astounding considering the carnage that took place against the rest of the power 5. The Pac 12 …
