The ACC Thread

[Hitman Hart]

4* Jamie Lewis just committed to Wake Forest.

#98 nationally on Rivals, #119 on 247, 4* UR on ESPN.

He's had some injury problems, so hopefully those issues are behind him. Pretty nice class assembled by Manning.

Correction: He's #88 on 247. #119 on the composite.

One more week until games start

I feel like if Manning could, he'd suspend half of the team for these exhibition games, just to motivate his guys for the season opener. He doesn't value the competition in exhibition games at all, and frequently plays some pretty asinine lineups.

Things go from bad to worse at Ga. Tech. If there's any evidence that Pastner knew, and lied about it, he's as good as gone. Similar to what Tressel did at Ohio State in that regard.

Pastner's pool water even looks dirty.

If they're out for the year, then Tech will probably be the #14 team in the ACC. Only Pitt's roster would be worse.

Might be a good thing in the long term. Pastner's tenure at Memphis was heavily criticized, and he's been pretty mediocre on the recruiting trail during his first two years at Tech. He's only signed 1 Top 125 player during two full recruiting cycles.

Should be noted that VT barely missed the Top 30 on Rivals.

Barrett announces tonight so either Oregon, UK, or Duke will definitely move up.

Is it tonight? 247 says he's announcing tomorrow.

It's Friday. I was thinking tonight but it's Friday at 6pm.

Former 4* big man, Sam Japhet-Mathias might as well become a basset hound, he's so far deep in Manning's doghouse right now.


Anthony Bilas is Jay Bilas' son, and he's a walk-on. Wake is looking to replace both John Collins and Dinos Mitoglou.
