The last time we were picked pre-season to finish 11th in the ACC, we ended up as ACC Regular Season Co-Champions.  Now, the “official” pre-season predictions haven’t come out yet, but The Charlotte Observer has already come out with their predictions, despite not yet knowing who is entering the draft and who is sticking around, and despite not knowing even what the schedules look like yet.

12. Virginia (17-16, 5-11)
Without point guard Sean Singletary, who was the sole reason the Cavaliers were competitive last season, this team will struggle. Coach Dave Leitao’s recruiting has been suspect.

Sweet! If we can come in tied for first when ranked 11th, that means we’ll likely be the undisputed ACC champions, now that we’re picked for last!  This is flawless logic, don’t try to question me.  I, after all, go to law school and did well on my LSATs.
