What should fans expect of the Ivey Era in South Bend, the Lawson Period in Durham this 2020-21 ACC season?

Louisville, powered by Dana Evans, and NC State, driven by Elissa Cunane, should lead the battle for ACC regular-season and tournament crowns. But the arrivals of Niele Ivey and Kara Lawson to head coaching positions at Notre Dame and Duke, respectively, should intensify ACC competition.

It looks like that Swish more or less copied and pasted last years standings and then they left UNC off the list.

Oops. “Other than that” does everyone agree they did a pretty good job researching for the poll?

Actually, no, I think this poll is atrociously put together. To overlook NC who has a viable Conference POY in Bailey and is a top 4 team is the most glaring but also having a decimated Duke team 3rd with no talent ahead of an ND squad with talent also screams illogical! I am not saying ND is top 4 but is better than Duke. Add in VPI and GaTech ahead of Syracuse-Based on what? So yeah, to me this is a pathetic poll. Where’s the ACC Coaches preseason poll?

Syracuse gets their pg back and adds a great freshman class that includes highly recruited 6'6" Cardosa. I see them several spots higher at the end of the season.

And if BC finishes ahead of N Dame I'll be shocked. :eek:

Tiana on Syracuse, by the end of the year might be the best player in the conference.
Q said she is at 8 of 10 as far as fitness right now. She can do things no-one else in the conference can. She makes her teammates better.

If Duke finishes 3rd..... I'll streak through downtown wearing nothing but a Duke WBB hat.

Make sure you have someone records it so that you can prove that you did it. Just make sure you post it under the Cesspool forum, because I don't think the Mods would approve it as UConn related.:rolleyes::eek:

I was being facetious by asking a question similar to: “Other than that Mrs. Lincoln did you enjoy the play?” I agree with your points. However if a website posts a poll that completely omits a team I can’t get past that glaring error to take the remainder of the article even remotely serious.

I, too was going to quote that same Lincoln reference...great minds think alike..:rolleyes:

*Footnote, when being facetious or joking, it helps those of us "humor impaired" with insertion of an " :rolleyes: or ;)" emoji to assist our comprehension..:)

Umm, seems like you are taking your lead from Swishappeal and missing an even more obvious team-South Carolina...:confused:

Unless of course, you are trolling the Gamecock fans here on this forum, at which I laud your efforts!!!
:D

I keep seeing Ole Miss at the bottom of preseason SEC standings. Coach Yo is a great coach and was very successful at Jacksonville albeit a lesser conference. She is starting her season with 2 McDonalds AA in Shakira Austin and Madison Scott. I just think the Rebels may surprise some folks this season.

I think @militarydog post was in jest and is not a "true" coaches poll. While I do think Ole Miss will be improved, They are still in the lower half of the SEC behind SC, MSU, Texas A&M, Kentucky, Arkansas, Tennessee, LSU and Georgia. But yeah, they may be better than Vandy, Auburn, Alabama and Missouri so that an $2.75 can get you a small coffee at Starbucks drivethru... :rolleyes:

Ole Miss is definitely a team to watch.

Hard to imagine how they won't be the most improved team in the league.

On the other hand, they trailed 32-0 with 1 minute left in the 2nd quarter vs South Carolina, which makes one wonder a bit about coaching.

Their surprising recruiting though is an interesting story and I would like to see any team find a way out of the basement. Always a nice story.
