Deacons in the Post

ACC Media Days began yesterday, and the Deacs got a little wider circulation than they're used to:

Yeah, Joe Dailey, I don't remember any individual Tarheel standing out last season, either, but I think of your whole team as going 3-9 and getting your coach fired.

The ACC media poll was released this morning, and the same jokers who picked Wake to finish last in the Atlantic Division last year picked them to finish 4th this year. In other news, several ACC beat writers died last night after wandering away from Pinehurst and onto an artillery range at nearby Fort Bragg. Their last words were, "Ooh, fireworks!"

Next week Deaconball will have a round-up of the preseason football mags and where Wake ranked in them.

Temperatures in Winston-Salem the last two mornings have been in the very un-July-like mid-60s, which I take to be nature's way of reminding me that football season is right around the corner. Nature's a damn tease.
