3rd most wins in the acc (since its 12 teams inception) is underachieving?!?!?



This is the most misleading little statistic that the Al-lovers throw out there because it sounds impressive. In reality, its because of some down years in the ACC and because the first two years in the ACC just happened to be Al's best teams ever. In the past 4 years, we have finished 3rd, tied for 3rd (with 3 other teams), 12th, and 6th -- and that is supposed to solidify Al as a great coach? When you factor in that we had out most talented teams EVER in those first 2 years and still only managed to finish 3rd with no post-season success....it sheds different light on that record over the past 4 years.

It's pretty much exactly what you said. Take Dook and UNC out of the formula and BC is 1st, tied for 1st, 10th and 4th among the remaining schools in the ACC

when did this program move to tobacco road?


it just seems like every year we have a somewhat successful season (with a few WTF losses thrown in for good measure) but when it comes tourney time we shxt the bed and get bounced in the first or 2nd round. when are we going to the sweet 16 or better yet the elite 8? for once, i'd like to see the team make some noise in the tourney and live up to their potential. i dont expect us to have duke or UNC consistency but it would be nice to make the tourney every year with a deep run every few years.

p.s. i like bc football

You don't? Just get in the same room with her.
