I definitely agree that Wake is rated a little low. Their sophs are solid and if they make the usual frosh-soph leap, they very easily could be the third best ACC team.
Based on how Duke ended the season last year, I certainly don't mind being rated a little bit lower than where I think we can end up, especially by Dickie V (If Vitale rates us this low, then we may actually have a chance to "sneak up" on some people). Keep us flu free, give us another year of experience (and for Singler, another 15 pounds) and add more bodies to throw in the post both in practice and in games and we've definitely got a chance to move up these rankings, quickly. You're right, we've got to earn it this year, which is fine by me. I know our guys are up to the task.
