ACC Hoops "Down Year" Pegged To Coaching Tenure?

Future ACC Basketball Outlook: Will Donahue Ever Breakthrough In The ACC?
During BC basketball's first season in the ACC, led by a roster of three future NBAers, the Eagles won 11 regular season games and came within a bucket of upsetting Duke for the ACC Championship. Ever since that inaugural ACC season of 2005-06, the general trend line for the Eagles has been...
Previewing Duke-Wake Forest: Q&A With Duke Hoop Blog
I recently had the chance to talk with Adam over at DukeHoopBlog to get ready for tomorrow's game against the Blue Devils.

Wake Forest Demon Deacons Blogger So Dear Entertains From the Rumble Seat's Inquiry

KNOW THY ENEMY: Colorado Buffaloes
Our tour of the Northtards concludes with the hippie brigade in Boulder. Just like last year, the Colorado Buffaloes entered the season as a semi-popular dark-horse pick by some in the media. And just like last year, they already have four losses before the new year, can't win away from home and...
Season By The Numbers (so far): The ACC's New Head Coaches
I thought it would be an interesting exercise to take a look at each of the new coaches in the ACC and their performance thus far. It's pretty clear that Steve Donahue is not only getting the most out of his players, but overachieving as well, with great wins over IU, Texas A&M, Cal, Providence...

RPI WATCH: 11/29/2010
Feast Week ended with a bang when UNLV pulled away from Virginia Tech in the second half of the 76 Classic championship game. I still think Virginia Tech will be a solid ball club and the Hokies frankly should be favored this week at home against Purdue, but they have no bench and are overly...
