It’s been a rough week for the ACC. From the apparent ACC Network delay to the officiating controversy at the end of Miami Duke game. That’s a lot of bad PR for the conference in a very short period of time. I’ve always thought the ACC struggled with PR, so I’m going to help them out. …

The face of Virginia Tech football, Frank Beamer announced Sunday that he will retire at the end of the 2015 football season.

If you follow me on twitter or read the blog, you know I almost never complain officiating. Even with the teams I root for, I don’t do it.
