The coward has refused to show up. I am shocked that the ACC is letting him stay at home instead of face the media. He is scum and instead of answering questions himself, he is sending 2 transfers who are brand new to the program (players who were clearly not part of the scandal) instead. Lowest of the low. I thought my opinion of him could not get any lower...

He is scum and instead of answering questions himself, he is sending 2 transfers who are brand new to the program (players who were clearly not part of the scandal) instead.

Which, fairly or not, creates an interesting situation. Will the media adapt by asking questions that a pair of new student transfers can actually answer, or will they just ask whatever they feel like asking without regard to who is in the room?

I don't know much about the ACC media, but sports media in general have not been known for their flexibility and restraint in a press conference setting. If they ask fairly nuanced questions about the scandal's early effects on this season, they will add about as much as they can to the story. If they bully some innocents, they will occupy the large, villain-shaped hole.

A minor quibble with that tweet (not your post), but Grayson Allen isn't an upperclassman. He's a sophomore. But, I guess in this era of one-and-dones, that concept slips away a bit.

I have trouble seeing all four veterans start, simply because (1) I suspect Ingram will be our best player and (2) none of the four veterans are PGs. But I would expect all four to get starters' minutes.

On my first day as a student at Duke all of us freshmen were informed of our status as people below that of the upperclassmen. We had to wear funny blue hats, too. Included among the upperclassmen were sophomores, juniors and seniors. Grayson Allen is legitimately an upperclassman. As far as who starts, I expect that to be changing well into the season, so let's just wait and see.

Watching Roy screw this up is going to be the highlight of the season. All this NCAA pressure has clearly gotten to him and I expect him to crumble this year...at least that's my hope.

The contrast between Coach K's version and Roy's version of where the buck stops is so indicative of the differing philosophies and principles of our two schools. Roy's petulant answer is that the head coach is responsible, but its not fair, and wine wine wine. What a bunch of cowards. I am repulsed by their program and really wish we could just up and find another rival. They aren't worthy.

Freshmen may be treated differently than non-freshmen. But the definition of upperclassman is a junior or senior in high school or college.

As for the starting lineup, I agree that it may change throughout the year. I just don't expect it to not have outlr best player or a PG in it at all times.

Coach K's segment begins at 2:06:30

Lots of praise for the veterans again.

Amile and Marshall much improved. Grayson is going to be one of the best players in the country. Matt is an exceptional leader.

Our veterans are our best players right now, according to Coach. (I don't think he meant that literally all 4 guys are better than Brandon Ingram, for example, just that as a group the vets are ahead of the freshmen.)

Spork you very much for the link, I had missed the live version.

In both the interview you linked and another one he did just with ESPN (also linked somewhere up thread), he goes out of his way on Matt's leadership. Called him one of those special leader types he's had along the way. In the shorter ESPN interview he says he is "the" leader on the court for the team.

You can never believe 100% of what K says in the preseason, so maybe its a bit of a red herring, but the mostly widely bandied about lineup of DT/GA/BI/AJ/MP3 would seem in need of an alteration to accommodate Matt. Rarely does the leader of the team come off the bench, but who do you bench? Derryck is the lone PG and K is going out of his way to praise Amile and MP3.

I'll go with what I know: K loves 3 guard lineups and small ball, so MP3 or Amile will not always play together and Ingram is going to play more 4 than we hoped.

no one wants to bench another senior b/c I'm curious to see what happens. I'm increasingly getting the feeling that Matt could be the key to the season...can't wait for games to start in 48 hours...

I was never a fan of Syracuse, but didn't really have anything against them until now when I read this whiny crap from Boeheim. (http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/13994774/jim-boeheim-calls-ncaa-ban-talking-assistants-players-onerous)

"It's one thing to penalize the coaches from games," Boeheim said at the ACC's media day. "That's a severe punishment, but then you can't talk to the players you recruited who obviously didn't have nothing to do with anything. I don't think it's fair to take the coach away that completely."

I agree with you that Matt will be in the lineup.

My guess is Derryck comes off the bench to start the season. It might not even last beyond 1 game, but I think the starters for tomorrow will be the 4 vets + Brandon.
