DCI RANKINGS VERSUS RPI
DCI is basically trying to incorporate margin of victory back into the rankings.


CHRIS PAUL SUSPENDED ONE GAME

What did Julius Hodge have to say:

"You know, I have good-natured talk. I have fun on the court, but I just go out and play ball. That was uncalled for. And the thing is, I actually enjoy watching Wake Forest play. I'm a fan of theirs. I really like Justin Gray, I think he's a good player. But for a guy to do that -- I would never do that. I'm not going to go out and intentionally knock somebody out. Now, when I was younger, I may have retaliated to Steve Blake, but I'm never going to just hit somebody for no reason."


WHO WILL WIN THE ACC TOURNEY?
From Tony Barnhart:

5. Georgia Tech if . . .


Luke Schenscher becomes more involved on both ends. When the Yellow Jackets were making their Final Four run last season, Big Luke was doing it all: shooting, rebounding, swatting shots. Run the offense through him and there will be more good looks for Jarrett Jack, B.J. Elder and Will Bynum. When Schenscher gets the ball, he must power his way to the basket. Finesse won't cut it in the ACC tournament.


SHORT ON FANS, POINTS, WINS, BULLDAWGS LEARN HARD WAY
Wanted to throw this one in there just for fun and giggles. We need to revel in our rival's suffering. Let's not forget in all this ACC talk that UGAg truly is one of the worst hoops teams in the nation.
