Andy Katz' ACC Power Rankings

[OrangeXtreme]

 

[rrlbees]

I have no problem with that.

 

[HOFCeluck]

I find this offensive

 

[SUGIANT]

Why are you yelling?

 

[OttoMets]

Power rankings before anyone's played a game...kind of not what power rankings are supposed to measure.

 

[Cusefan0307]

As where I expected us, but I won’t be surprised if we finish first.

 

[Eric15]

Man it's a rough time to be a Louisville sports fan.

 

[Trueblue25]

Was having a bad day, but something about seeing pitt in dead last rapidly fixed it

 

[Lucid]

"Jim Boeheim has that quiet confidence about him."

Barring injuries this should be one hell of a season!

 

[Rage4CUSE]

Man it's a rough time to be a Louisville sports fan.

How far they've fallen, quickly.

 

[teamco]

The only thing that I've seen recently fall farther and faster than Pitt are a couple of stocks I own

My cousins are in AGONY! On the one hand, one of them has a new baby, so that can help distract but the reverse is also true: when one has a new (or even somewhat old) baby, one needs all the distraction one can get!

It is so bad I can’t even talk to them about it.

Height?

 

[HOFCeluck]

Im not gonna feel too bad for louisville.

 

[Hoo's That]

Im not gonna feel too bad for louisville.

IMO anyone who doesn’t think they’re slowly and steadily going to scratch and claw their way back to being a top team is deluding themselves.

 

[FreakTalksAboutSU]

Katz is reasonable. He generally gives us our due...

 

[jmcclure33]

Height?

I was thinking bench and squat

 

[Pearl309]

Pitt is way too high

Man it's a rough time to be a Louisville sports fan.

According to ESPN, they now have the #1 recruiting class. Of course, Duke and Kentucky are still to be heard from.

 

[Fly Rodder]

And Syracuse.

 

[721Comstock]

Height?

Length.

 

[SoBeCuse]

Katz hates us!!

According to ESPN, they now have the #1 recruiting class. Of course, Duke and Kentucky are still to be heard from.

I'm curious if they can keep that class intact. Mack has done an impressive job in recruiting, however I find it hard to believe that Louisville will avoid some serious sanctions. First, I wonder how many of their recruits will sign LOIs and how many, if any, will opt for non-binding financial aid agreements. I don't think the school is in a position to balk. If the penalties include post season bans (and/or possibly television bans) how many players stay. Especially if the NCAA permits transfers without having to sit a year. I think it is going to be interesting to see where this is next spring.

 

[IthacaMatt]

And Syracuse.

Our class looks like a very good fit for our system, and we hope to close strong, but this is not a Top 5 type of class unless we get Stewart.

There will be other guys available.
