Top Returning Players in the ACC (accfootballrx.blogspot.com)
I wanted to take the All-ACC team and see which players were returning next Fall. It wasn't as easy as it sounds. You can tell it's off-season for a lot of team websites because they still list players on their 2015 rosters who have declared for the NFL draft. Hopefully I removed those guys without removing too many. I went with the All-ACC first, second, and third team offenses but only the first and second team defenses (it worked out to about the same number of players that way).
Top Returning Offensive Players:
WR Tyler Boyd, So., Pitt 31
RB James Conner, So., Pitt 39
QB Justin Thomas, So., Georgia Tech 18
WR Mike Williams, So., Clemson 21
WR Artavis Scott, Fr., Clemson 15
WR Ryan Switzer, So., North Carolina 11
QB Marquise Williams, Jr., North Carolina 8
RB Dalvin Cook, Fr., Florida State 15
Top Returning Defensive Players:
CB Kendall Fuller, So., Virginia Tech 35
S Jalen Ramsey, So., Florida State 25
DE Dadi Nicolas, Jr.-R, Virginia Tech 25
DT Adam Gotsis, Jr., Georgia Tech 16
DT Corey Marshall, Jr.-R, Virginia Tech 13
LB Terrance Smith, Jr.-R, Florida State 20
S Quin Blanding, Fr., Virginia 21
S Jeremy Cash, Jr.-R, Duke 17

Watch Jon Fishman's Dad Give a Moving, Hilarious Hall of Fame Induction Speech for His Son (video; PS, Baker)
Phish drummer Jon Fishman earned the Syracuse Area Music Awards' highest honor Thursday night, but it was his father who stole the show at the Dinosaur Bar-B-Que ceremony.
After an hourlong Hall of Fame induction ceremony honoring one of the most impressive classes in recent SAMMYs history, Dr. Len Fishman took the stage to present his son with the Lifetime Achievement Award.

The elder Fishman's 10-minute introduction touched on behind-the-scenes stories from his years alongside Jon's band, Phish, as well as anecdotes from the younger Fishman's formative years.
"They would horse around a lot onstage sometimes," Len said of Jon's early years with Phish. "And usually the horse was Jon."
Most notably, he shared the origin story for Jon's signature Electrolux vacuum solos. In short, they all started with Jon's mother, Mimi Fishman.
"He would put that in his mouth, turn on that thing," Len said. "And it was like he farted. That's about the way that sound was."
