… yea a fair argument can be made for that, however I think if you pick any ACC team and take their starting combo guard (maybe best player?) and 6th man (rice and Long) out of the lineup for the whole season and half the season. That whichever team you pick will have massive struggles when young Players are asked to step up and preform and take larger roles than expected, especially in road environments. ** Edited by Hokies2023 at 2/17/2024, 6:35:17 PM
