ACC is coming...

Chapel Bill. SMU oil money. Wake Forest possibly landing an up-and-comer. Georgia Tech is going to be a problem for the foreseeable future. Florida State can't possibly get worse. Miami will continue to reload through the portal. Louisville always scrappy and well coached.
The ACC is going to be a real challenge next season.

SMU has a good coach AND $$. Very dangerous combination.

Agree on GT...not sold on UNCheat....how Bellichek relates to kids is questionable, IMO.

Chapel Hill Bill has given UNCheat instant recognition with the target group of HS ballers. If for no other reason than to be connected with Tom Brady, most young'uns consider him the GOAT. I am somewhat in fear and hope we step up before we are YEARS behind.

I don't understand this logic. Nil was hired for nil fundraising. That's it. Then they can pay players more. It's a marketing thing.

Duke not going any where either under Diaz. About to get another 4 star transfer at wide receiver.

ACC isnt getting any better

We are just falling back to the rest of the pack
Our team is not in the same zip code of the SEC’s top quartile.
I love Clemson, and I’ll pull for my Tigers come hell or high water, but I’m not going to pretend that we are elite or that the ACC is getting any better.
Now, here’s to Dabo and Co proving me wrong

I definitely don't agree. Georgia Tech is a middling ACC team

And took the standard of the SEC to 8 overtimes in Athens. If it weren't for some poor officiating and playcalling Georgia Tech should have won that game in regulation.
Like I said, the ACC is coming. I just hope Clemson can remain at the top of the conference. Going to be a challenge.

to show anything but which team brought the most heart, ie, 31-30 & 17-14. Shore as hail don't indicate that the coots were better than us.

Beat Miami. They're a very good team but struggled in conference.
Parity is increasing across the country. This whole conference thing is an extremely tired argument.

agree, a 4th place finish in ACC in recruiting and dont seem to be doing anything in portal to offset it. Dont see any of the blue chip portal guys we really need even mentioning us? It is sad how far we have fallen since 2018. I am expecting Texas to erase all doubt this weekend and really expose us and our lack of coaching and talent.

We still employ Brad Brownell after 1.5 decades of mediocrity with one or two flashes of "pretty good". So why be surprised we still keep Dabo after 15 years of 9 ACC championships, 7 NCAA playoffs, 4 title games, 2 national championships...one of only 2 active coaches who've won national titles.

This used to be exciting when we knew we were still going to beat all of these teams and they were just résumé builders. Now we are watching teams pass us by.

We weren’t quite there this year… we still had just enough.. with the current recruiting numbers and not getting good transfers in a year or 2 it will really show. Let’s hope changes are made before we have to endure this.

Miami won’t make a bowl next year. Bill Belichick will be gone before any real success. WF will always be middle of the pack at best.

Louisville destroyed Kentucky. Georgia Tech should have beat GA in Athens. And we completely #### the bed against the coots, a team that finished at the top of the SEC.
The parity is only going to increase these next 2-3 years. Buckle up.

good. Beating Kentucky isn’t an impressive accomplishment. Also neither is almost pulling an upset. Looking at next year’s ACC schedule, if we are a legitimate contender, there is not a team on there I worry about beating outside of maybe SMU. If we are not a very good team then sure we may lose a few, but the schedule is a bunch of middling to garbage teams plus SMU.

Wake Forest could care less... No NIL, very little support... The new guy will have an uphill battle retaining talent.
I have a feeling Wake is going to revert back to the Wake of old, being a bottom feeder in in this conference.

It wouldn't shock me a bit. I hope we stay where we are and this conference turns it around and gets bigger better deals. That would be the ideal scenario.

Be nice if the Conference members could take advantage of their work by gaining more TV revenue. Unfortunately they all decided to perform for peanuts for about 100 years.
