The predictions continue to roll in. Earlier we saw Ned Barnette's from the
N&O, and
tonight we see The Sporting News, via the Baltimore Sun. Paul McMullen
picks Duke first, UNC second, and the Terps third.
In another list, ACC Today is ranking
the perimeter players in the conference. In a sign of how basketball
has changed, there is only one perimeter player listed who is under 6'6" -
Joseph Forte of UNC. Rachel Cohen of the Chronicle has a column saying
at least Duke isn't UVa - not sure how smart that is. They did pretty well
last year with their walkons, and in something of a miracle, they are suddenly
deep and talented, if somewhat undersized.
