May-be Next Year
Sean May and Co. will have to wait until next year to crown themselves ACC Tournament Champs. Jack's 17-footer in the final seconds lifts Georgia Tech over UNC (as predicted) and into a re-match with Duke. The Yellow Jackets are going places.Roundup Bonus: Bob Ryan has a gem on the Boston College Eagles in today's Globe. Led by Craig Smith and Uka Agbai, the Eagles continue to get quality minutes from Jared Dudley, an unheralded prospect who signed with BC in the late summer.
"[Dudley] was basically in the same position I was in when I came here," says Craig Smith (22 manly points and 10 even more manly rebounds). "He came with people not really knowing who he was and wanting to surprise people."
Smith is right, of course. But while Coach Al Skinner has a tremendous eye for overlooked prospects, when will he nab a high-profile recruit?
