Virginia in the tourney!? I hope you're right, but I would guess that's a unique prediction. What are you looking at that you think they might turn it around this year?
For that matter, 8 ACC teams is a surprise, given how much talent went to the NBA.
Mississippi St. being where it is is dependent on Renardo Sidney winding up eligible, I assume?
A month ago, I was sure he would find a way to be eligible for five months, but now I'm genuinely not sure.
Sam, yes, Mississippi State will obviously drop quite a bit if Renardo Sidney is ruled ineligible. But right now I'm thinking that he'll play.
Devon, read my ACC preview. I believe that Virginia is going to be a lot better for three reasons. One is that they return basically everybody. The other is that they improved at coach - Tony Bennett is one of the top ten coaches in the country, in my opinion. And I believe Sylven Landesberg is ready to be one of the top five players in the ACC and a nationally known player.
