The ACC has 3 Teams in Sweet 16. That is tied with the Big 12 for most in the country. It’s been a tremendous tournament for the ACC, as the rough OOC results are a distant memory. Duke, North Carolina, and Miami played like three top 10 teams this past weekend. Who knew that 15 …

Jim Larranaga’s legacy was cemented. He has coached George Mason and Miami to 10 combined NCAA appearances. He led George Mason to Final 4, won an ACC Title, and has been the national coach of the year. He’s also won nearly 700 games in his career. It still seems like he doesn’t get the credit …

Virginia Tech was one that was not as success as the other #ACC teams. As @DeferredWalkOn said many times, the Hokies do not have a top 100 player on the roster – walked into a really difficult matchup with the toughest defensive team it played all year in Texas. No bueno. 2/ — Matthew (!! …

Raise your hand if you thought the ACC would lead the nation with the Big 12 for the most Sweet 16 teams in college basketball of any conference? Three ACC teams Duke, North Carolina, and Miami made the Sweet 16. Ok stop you’re lying. Even optimistic ACC observers like we at AllSportsDiscussion.com didn’t see this coming. …

This will be a short post for tonight, as I just got back from the Greenville, SC opening NCAA Tournament rounds. Just some quick thoughts from what I saw… Paulo Banchero’s talent level is unreal up close. I don’t care what they say about Auburn’s Jabari Smith. Banchero is better. He’s like a smoother bigger …

What would be the Sports Betting Odds have been that on the first Saturday of the NCAA tournament the ACC would still have 4 teams remaining in the field? After being maligned much of the season, and deservedly so, the ACC is having a stellar tournament. ACC teams are currently 6-1. North Carolina has already …

There is a lot to be said about North Carolina’s win over Baylor and what it means to ACC basketball as a whole. The maligned basketball conference has taken it on the chin for the last 2 years as the Big 10, Big 12, and maybe even SEC have sprinted past. ACC teams are reminding …

Yesterday we documented the ACC’s stellar 4-0 start in the post-season. That included NIT wins by Wake Forest and Virginia to go along with North Carolina and Notre Dame wins to open the NCAA tournament. Friday the ACC added to their strong post-season with a 3-1 Friday. As predicted Duke handled CS Fullerton, but that …

It hasn’t been a vintage ACC year in basketball. There’s no question about it, but the post-season always provides an opportunity for a little redemption. The early returns suggest the ACC might be able to make a little noise in March. In the NIT Virginia knocked off Mississippi State 60-57. The Bulldogs had wins over …

Maybe someone from Georgia Tech marketing can explain this one to me. Why is Georgia Tech having a spring game on a Thursday night, which just happens to be the opening day of the NCAA Basketball Tournament, and St. Patricks day? Never mind that you have to fight Atlanta rush hour traffic just to get …

Best Mike Young – Virginia Tech I’m not even sure this is close. Sitting 10-10 (2-7), then at the halfway point of their conference season 11-10 (3-7) the Hokies looked done. Then the Hokies started winning, winning some more, and kept winning all the way to an improbable magical ACC Title run. Young finished the …
