🏀 ACC Men's Basketball - Week 12: 19-25 January 2026

Derrion Williams is absolute trash. Pre-season POY is hilarious, and every announcer continues to say it.

Edit: Though he did just make a big 3 in OT.

Too many teams that run clock in a late possession end up jacking up a bad shot. Running clock is fine but you need to run your offense too

Miami & Clemson both lose. No chalk tonight.

An ACC team we play 2 times just beat the ACC team we play 0 times

It is funny that conference games typically wash out, but now we get to root for Clemson getting absolutely blasted in every game.

That’s what they get for ducking us in Charlotte

I’m less concerned about Miami sneaking past us in the ACC standings thanks to a weak schedule now.

It appears that most East Coast ACC games have been moved up at least an hour if the original tip was after 2 pm.

The interesting one is that the Louisville / VT games was only moved from 3:30 to 2:15.

I think that is because there is some uncertainty regarding whether Kentucky is in the path. If it is, I believe, it will only be the weak outer part of it.

Is London Johnson still going to play for Louisville this season? What’s going on there?

It’s a funny story…

I don’t like Ben Hammond. Annoying player which is probably a compliment.

Mikel Brown Jr makes Louisville a completely different beast (not discounting our win just think they’re top 10 worthy with him healthy and playing their best)

After we played Louisville, Kelsey said he was redshirting and tried to clarify why they previously said he was available to play in the postgame presser. Kelsey’s story was that they wanted London to play, he was up for it, but then had 2nd thoughts as they started to prep him. Kelsey explained that as “London realized it was going to be a lot to get up to speed this far into the season” and that he didn’t want to waste one of his two years of eligibility, but one might draw a different conclusion about what happened.

Yea a healthy Louisville might have the 2nd highest ceiling in the league but they still have @ Duke @ SMU @ Clemson @ Miami @ North Carolina with three losses already so watch them end up the 9 seed in the ACC tournament or something.

FSU tied with SMU. Yuck that’s a rough look for SMU at home

Wth happened at the end of that FSU-SMU game? Ball was knocked out of bounds and the refs called it a jump ball? That’s what the announcer said but I can’t see how that would be a jump.

Admittedly, when we started questioning our biggest NIL deal the player started popping off again. Hopefully they don’t get as lucky as we did willing that into existence
