    What the hell happened to ACC basketball?

    Once upon a time, not to long ago the ACC used to have three teams in the top ten whose campuses were within 100 miles of each other.

    Now, you have no top ten team in the conference, one team in the top 20 and Florida State the best team ranked #11 took an ugly loss yesterday losing badly to ND.

    Virginia and Va. Tech are #21 and #22. are the conferences next best.

    No Duke, no teams from NC....

    Hell, Winthrop would be the ACC top seed if they played in that league this season.

    No recruiting this past year

    Programs are dependent on the great 1 & done

    We're seeing teams w multiple year starters win now

    Louisville and Syracuse both dominant at home

    Florida st basically unbeatable at home, the one home loss to UCF might be the hardest loss of any team to explain this year

    Kids go all over now because television exposures great everywhere

    Plus a lot of great players want more playing time so they don’t go to the big schools

    If it wasn't for Clemson in football the ACC would be getting close to rivaling the PAC 12 for the garbage P5 conference

    you guys are 100% correct, it should be at least 2 yrs to commit to any college program.i thought when all the minor league nba teams, they was be going there out of high school, what they are doing to the college system is just not right.i cant believe now after all these yrs of the one and done babies, they have not change the system.

    The answer is the biggest farce ever created by the U.S. government known as COVID.

    Recruiting sucked.
    Practices sucked.

    None of these guys got sick even when tested positive yet the NCAA would stop them from playing.

    Liberal puffers have ruined everything.
