I'm not going to actually predict records/stats. Just who will be good/bad, impactful/not so much. Thank you long off-season for the boredom that besets me like a pack of hounds on a bloody fox.
First off, The ACC!
Atlantic Division-
1. Clemson
2. FSU
3. Maryland
4. Wake Forest
5. NC State
6. Syracuse
7. Boston College
Clemson at this point has to be the odds-on favorite. Returning Boyd and Watkins will remain potent on offense. Ellington will be missed, but Bellamy is talented in his own right. The defense should improve in year 2 under Venables. FSU is FSU. Loads of talent and inconsistent. Will they put it together and repeat? Does Clint Trickett **** pretty *******? The answer is no. He ***** BBW. He isn't the answer, and if you think Jameis Winston/Sean McGuire will step in and be dominant they won't. Trickett wins the job, plays well enough to finish 2nd. Maryland lost 4 Qb's this year. The team struggled with injuries all season. Out of 4 QB's who have game experience, they can find one to step in and get it done. Also, Diggs and Wes Brown aren't too shabby to have as weapons offensively. Wake and NCSU will be mehhhh...Although I think new NCSU coach Dave Doeren will eventually build them into a threat. The Orangmen will be welcomed to the ACC with a dose of humble pie, and BC gon BC.
Coastal Division-
1.Miami
2.North Carolina
3.VT
4.GT
5.UVA
6.Pitt
7.DUKE
Dem Canes gon have some playas. Nah, forreal tho. The Miami Hurricanes are looking good. Nah man, I'm serious this time. I think they might do it....If you recall, the Canes won a share of the coastal this season. They could repeat next season. Like, forreal. Looking at it, We beat Duke, GT, VT. Are any of those teams getting substantially better this offseason? Not Duke. Renfree is gone. Duke crashes back to reality this offseason. GT? Lose Tevin Washington, replace with Vad Lee. GT is always a tough game. But we play them in Miami, and we have owned them as of late. VT may bring back Logan Thomas but I'm not too worried about him. He may rededicate himself this offseason and unbelieve his own hype and **** up my hopes, but I doubt it. He's a bi-racial angel. Not scurred. Looking at UNC, they lose Gio. Man...he was good. Bryn Renner comes back, and Quinshad Davis (srs) is emerging as a threat at WR. The defense loses the remainder of the Butch Davis era super-freaks. Larry Hat will have his hands full, but I still think they're consistent enough to win, just not against us. That leaves Pitt and UVA. Pitt has Rushel Shell, a superb talent at RB. But other than him, they're not Verygood Good. UVa can **** themselves. Seriously. Michael Phillips is a contraceptive. Philip Sims will be better than advertised, but the Mike London experiment falls on hard times this year coming up.
Impact Players
Not going to state obvious ones (SteeMo, Duke, DP,EJ, Deon) I'm going to focus on guys riding the pine this past season and guys coming in.
Bond, Devante Bond. With any form of interior pass rush, this kid will get us off the field on 3rd down. If he can get one on ones on 3rd and long, we're in a position to win. That brings me to...
Earl Moore. This no-necked big ******* is about to yoke up this offseason. I can feel it, down in my plums. 6'1, 310 going into next year seems legit. He is a blocker-occupier.
Olsen 'Lucky' Pierre. He's always the middle guy in the double team because he's the only decent interior lineman we had. Hence, Lucky Pierre. He'll become even more of a force this offseason going into next year.
If Moore and Pierre improve like I think they willm coupled with Bond, Devante Bond, we'll see a pretty dramatic improvement in our defense. Going from dead last to not dead last is pretty dramatic in itself, but I'm thinking anywhere from 55th-70th realistically. An improvement that great will result in wins we should have gotten this past year, and the wins we did get would have been uglier (for the other guys).
On offense, Beau. I haven't been this excited for a Tight end since I ****ed my buddy's sister. Beau Sandland is going to be the missing link this offense needs. The evolution continues for Clive Warlord. Thats a pretty imposing 2 TE set.
Another player I am excited to see improve is Seantrel. I think if he stays and stays healthy, he is going to have the breakout year at tackle we all dreamed of when he got here.
I left of all recruits other than Bond and Beau so as not to jinx, but obviously the impact player list would be subject to change. Golden road to a lets go canes!
