ACC Championship Game

[Louisvillian]

Loved seeing NC State take down Duke and Virginia and tonight if they can pull off one more shocker against UNC, they are in. Lose and according to Lunardi, they are out.

One side note, Lunardi said UNC is already set as one of his #1 seeds, win or lose. Should be fun.

I always like a good Duke and especially Virginia loss. Can NC State pull off the trifecta tonight?

UVA was one of Lunardi's "Last 4 In" - hope the loss keeps them out.

This tournament run should give Keatts another year!

I thought I heard he hit some milestone and earned 2 more years?

I don't think there is a player in the League I have disliked more than Bacot. Glad he won't be back.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that thought he was a dirty player. UNC markets him as some kind of Saint. At least with Dook, they don’t try to hide it.

N.C. State's amazing 5-wins-in-5-days run to ACC MBKB tourney title will be worth more than $2.5 million to Wolfpack coach Kevin Keatts.

He gets:--

-Automatic 2-year contract extension thru April 2030
-$400,000 raise, beginning next season--$100,000 bonus for ACC title-
-At least $10K for NCAA appearance

According to Lunardi, St Johns is his first team out now. He may be wrong but it’s possible that NC State and/or others just knocked Ricky P to the NIT.

Dont underestimate Ricky P's marketability and we know it's ALL about money!

And the Big East was pretty stout this year so a Top 5 BE finish should get StJ's in.

I was just relaying what Joe Lunardi has currently. He had them 1st team out, so it’s going to be close.

I think with their strong finish that they probably deserve to be in. They played some really good basketball after the Seton Hall loss. Pitino deserves a lot of credit there.

Kid reminds me of when Denny was playing Troy "Escalade" Jackson.

Never have like Bacot. He looked worn out after Burns knocked him around all night.

The fewer ACC teams in the tournament, the less money from it for the ACC.
