Is ACC football in good shape?
|
|
One way or another, the ACC is going to continue to tell us its football is in good shape.
Mike Finn, an ACC associate commissioner, will point this out to you, I am certain of it. Finn works the angles better than most and carefully points to the positives, which is a wise thing to do in his position.

Dascenzo: Hart still is one of Duke's best QBs

|
|
DURHAM -- They will induct Leo Hart, among others, into the North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame on Thursday.
It undoubtedly will be an emotional and well-deserved honor for Hart. But the most significant reason the three-time, first-team All-ACC quarterback is so ridiculously deserving may have come down to one rainy afternoon in October, 1970.

Looking ahead to football in 2008

|
I've never met a college football coach who didn't say he has a difficult schedule.
It comes with the territory -- one-game-at-a-time theory ... no game is bigger than the next one. Stupidity is to overlook somebody, even it's Charleston Southern or Jacksonville State or Gardner Webb.

To that say Nate James was in the right place at the right time would be an understatement.
Then again, James had a habit of being where he was needed most, especially on March 10, 2001, in Atlanta when his tip-in sent Maryland packing in an ACC Tournament semifinal as good as any before or after it.

|
The landscape of college football right now is somewhere between fair and unfair.
The report that the NCAA Postseason Football Licensing Subcommittee has approved a 33rd and 34th postseason bowl game for the 2008 season made me think about two deserving Duke teams that obviously played at the wrong time.
