Cirminiello also took his microscope to Wake Forest and predicts good things for them too.
Arthur Fontaine is down to four schools: BC, UVA, UGA and Maryland. He seems really high on the Dawgs. Reading the tea leaves, it seems like it is down to BC and Georgia.
As for deja vu: another story on Reynolds and another story on that mentions recruit Koehne.

I think we'll have to earn every victory this year for sure.
Georgia Tech 9/6
@NC State 10/4
Virginia Tech 10/18
@UNC 10/25
Clemson 11/1
Notre Dame 11/8
@Florida State 11/15
@Wake Forest 11/22
Maryland 11/29
Show me a guaranteed win there! We have lost at Raleigh, Chapel Hill and Winston Salem during our last visits to those schools. I was at all three losses. I don't expect the three games in the state of North Carolina to be anything but very tough again this year. UNC will be a very worthy foe this year.
Here's the good news - we can beat them all. Realistically, another 5 wins 3 losses in the ACC would be a very good outcome this year. Kent State should be a good indication because it's our first game - we have many new faces - they have many returning veterans, etc., but we should prevail. UCF will be a tough opponent, but we should prevail. URI - please! Notre Dame - we are capable of beating them in Chestnut Hill - even if they have momentum.
9 and 3 = great season
8 and 4 = very good season, considering.
7 and 5 = disappointing, but certainly possible, and understandably so.
In order to go 5 and 3 in the ACC, we have to win 2 out of 3 against the Coastal opponents GT, VT and @UNC.
Then we have to win 3 out of 4 against Clemson, @Florida State, @Wake Forest, Maryland. I think 3 out of 4 will put us back in the ACCCG (especially if we beat NC State in early October) - November has the potential to be unbelievably exciting - the entire season is exciting.
I never had this feeling in the Big East at all, but each and every one of these ACC games feels like a must win.
Let's hope the players can escape serious injuries this year. I don't care what anybody says - this is a tough schedule and we can be proud of our level of play.
Go BC!
I made a mistake above.
In order to go 5 and 3 in the ACC we could split the final 4, if we beat NC State. That would give us 3 and 2 in the Atlantic. We would still have to win 2 of 3 from the Coastal teams.
I'm not sure if 3 and 2/5 and 3 is good enough to reach the ACCCG, but 4 and 1/6 and 2 most likely will be. I don't think any Atlantic Team will go 5 and 0 in the Division.
