What's this?

NFL superstar is a major stretch. Lower body strength will always be his

question mark. The same problem really shortened Ralph's career.

17 and 8 in the ACC is quite different than the MEAC but you go ahead and -- hooman#1 10/16/2020 3:40PM

Not sure thats correct -- rives 10/16/2020 11:45AM

I think their frontcourt depth this year pulls his numbers down -- ChathamHoo 10/16/2020 12:58PM

His usage will lower but if he works on his game like he did -- hooman#1 10/16/2020 1:29PM

I like Brooks a lot, but that is absurd. -- HTrain90 10/16/2020 08:36AM

Unanimous, I will take that -- ARKHOO 10/15/2020 2:27PM

Have we ever been unanimous #1 since Ralph's days? -- Oregon Hoo 10/15/2020 3:48PM

Going to make Tony’s chances for winning ACC COY much harder ** -- Diehl 10/15/2020 4:42PM

Almost worthy of a trophy, right Swofford? ;) ** -- Diehl 10/15/2020 2:29PM

Agreed ** -- ARKHOO 10/15/2020 2:30PM

I would be happy about that but for the fact... -- 73CAV 10/15/2020 2:08PM

That is because they haven't picked us before. ** -- ARKHOO 10/15/2020 3:01PM

Great answer ** -- HiltonHeadHoo 10/15/2020 3:56PM

Graphic appears to show Duke scoring on us. #disrespect (tic) ** -- Diehl 10/15/2020 2:05PM

It is so nice to be at the top. ** -- 141lile 10/15/2020 2:01PM

Jay Huff didn't meet expectations last year? ** -- hoorulestheacc 10/15/2020 1:56PM

Well, Jay Huff's expectations were astronomical -- wahootiehoo 10/15/2020 3:59PM

Dre could afford to do that with Guy/Jerome on the team -- hooman#1 10/16/2020 1:21PM

I hope Stanley’s knee is ok. Jerk move by Braxton -- 757HOOFAN 10/16/2020 11:30AM

That’s a cool picture ** -- cavgrad 10/15/2020 9:19PM

Love this ** -- JamesHoo 10/15/2020 8:33PM

I doubt Coach K expected Jay to block 10 shots, score 15 & grab 9 rebounds. ** -- North Cavolina 10/15/2020 5:28PM

The ultimate rim protector ** -- Diehl 10/15/2020 2:19PM

Great pic ** -- Haney 10/15/2020 2:18PM

He greatly exceeded my expectations on D / all around stuff, but on ... -- Haney 10/15/2020 2:05PM

I think he and Mamadi would have been more effective in the paint in -- hooman#1 10/16/2020 1:18PM

A lot harder for Huff when our guards were not hitting 3's ** -- ARKHOO 10/15/2020 4:03PM

He was much better on D last year but failed to develop into the NBA -- HburgCav 10/15/2020 2:10PM

NFL superstar is a major stretch. Lower body strength will always be his -- AcousticHoo 10/16/2020 1:21PM

Oh it was hyperbole for the board's expectations of players ** -- HburgCav 10/16/2020 1:42PM

To add, 2P% was down slightly, FT% was down over 100 points, 3P% was down.. -- Haney 10/15/2020 2:09PM

He should shoot 75% from the FT line. I think part of that is his body is -- hooman#1 10/16/2020 1:19PM

FT% was my main area for improvement. He shoots too well for it to be -- Diehl 10/15/2020 2:13PM

Yup, no way he should be 54% FT shooter, with only 50 attempts -- Haney 10/15/2020 2:16PM

Don't you think he was focusing so much more on D, rebounding & hedging? -- rocket 10/15/2020 3:38PM

Seems like a reasonable explanation. That plus it took him... -- Haney 10/15/2020 3:42PM

I didn't read it,but usually that means someone thinks he should score more ** -- Kris

10/15/2020 1:59PM

Agreed but by the end of the season he was a force ** -- hoorulestheacc 10/15/2020 2:02PM
