The ACC voted Jon Scheyer ACC Coach of the Year for 2025-26 season. He got 51 votes. Lucas got only 19. NINETEEN!! What a robbery. So one guy succeeded at a perennial powerhouse while the other guy took over an absolute mess and went from 7 wins last season to 24 and counting this season. Lucas had to build an entirely new team and finished 3rd in the ACC. But he got outvoted by 32 votes!! The ACC is a joke for this. Miami has the biggest turnaround in all of college basketball with a 17 win improvement. Yet he gets very little respect. Anyways, that's my rant. Jai Lucas, you've done a **** of a job in your first season. You're my ACC coach of the year, **** you are my NCCAM Division 1 coach of the year! Go Miami!!

Maybe if he had played Dovrat on Saturday he would have won the award...
 
Yeah this conference is a joke. Miami had a 1st teamer, a 2nd teamer and an all defense guy. The HC finished 2nd in COTY voting. I think him not winning was ridiculous but I bet had we won a few more games that we barely lost, then he may have won 🤷
Did you see the rest of the awards? Practically nothing but Duke

Duke is very good, but let’s also remember that the ACC and its media know about how we embarrassed Duke football. UM as a school must be as or even more hated than before.
Also remember that except for the phony conference championship (dumb a*s tiebreaker), Duke is nothing but basketball and lacrosse. The ACC will always try to give Duke and UNC something positive to brag about in basketball because they have nothing else.
