Really enjoyed Barry's look at the career win leaders (https://www.dukebasketballreport.com/2019/2/20/18230927/winning-in-the-acc-mike-krzyzewski-roy-williams-dean-smith-tony-bennett)among ACC coaches on the DBR main page.

I especially like that you have already retired Roy Williams. I too expect Duke to beat the Heels so badly tonight that Roy refuses to ever work in coaching again. I am glad Barry and the DBR share in my view of how events will happen over the next several hours ;)

On a more serious note, I would just like to say that if you asked me to pick the top 7 career ACC win leaders and spotted me the first 6, it would take me at least 60 or 70 guesses before I got to Leonard Hamilton. Wow...

Yeah, Hamilton had a long stretch at Miami back in the Big East before coaching in the NBA for a while. He's been around for a LOOOOOONG time.

Yep, and he's like 70 or 71 I think.

If Miami had been in the ACC then, Leo would be in the top 5 in ACC history right now.

Yep. Though it is probably fair to point out that the ACC plays more games now than they did back in the day. But still, it's impressive.

I think it was first ACC media day for Roy and Gary Williams got a little prickly.

When asked about Roy, Gary said "I'm the Williams with a ring."
