Holding Court: A Bad Regular Season For ACC Hoops?
The truth hurts sometimes. During an ACC game recently, the announcers revisited a common theme from the last several months: Is this really a subpar season for ACC men’s basketball? “What we’re watching is truly special,” the play-by-play voice gushed, “yet, somehow, there’s been a lot of talk about this being a down year for […]
