Discussion topic: Who's ACC Coach of the Year?

Obviously the Hokies have had an incredible season which isn't easy in the ACC anymore. Here's the predicted order of finish in the pre-season poll. An argument could be made for the UVa coach as well. I think Duke also did a great job, current in second place.

2022 ACC Softball Preseason Coaches Poll
Florida State - 137 (8 First-Place Votes)
Clemson - 128 (2 First-Place Votes)
Virginia Tech - 126 (2 First-Place Votes)
Duke - 119 (1 First-Place Vote)
Notre Dame - 99
Louisville - 86
Georgia Tech - 72
North Carolina - 63
NC State - 57
Virginia - 36
Pitt - 35
Syracuse - 29
Boston College - 27

Coach Pete all the way. Very deserving. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:44 PM ET
Coach Pete should be/deserves ACC Coach of the Year.
carhokies • 05/03/22 01:02 PM ET
I agree 100%. Great coach great recruiter. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:45 PM ET
He beat therm 2 of 3 last yer too.
OKDokeyHokie • 05/03/22 02:25 PM ET
Pete deserves it based on what he has accomplished.**
delawarehokie • 05/03/22 01:20 PM ET
Absolutely DH. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:45 PM ET
I agree because
OKDokeyHokie • 05/03/22 02:39 PM ET
Pete may not win ACC COY, but could win national COY**
ronvpi • 05/03/22 10:28 AM ET
Indeed he could. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:46 PM ET
The perverse logic might be that he has won the ACC COY recently (2019)...
`lag • 05/03/22 11:38 AM ET
^^This**
TomTurkey • 05/03/22 11:22 AM ET
Great Point - this is from Softball America's preseason thoughts on the ACC
VTChip • 05/03/22 10:55 AM ET
For sure great motivation Chip. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:48 PM ET
He didn't name VT either in the top pitching staffs returning.
carhokies • 05/03/22 12:49 PM ET
Oh yeah. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:47 PM ET
It's been hanging in my indoor facility as well.**
dallasvt • 05/03/22 12:06 PM ET
That's such lazy research**
VT_AD • 05/03/22 11:26 AM ET
Yep…..not one word about VT.
RJHokie • 05/03/22 11:20 AM ET
I'll add this
VT_AD • 05/03/22 10:14 AM ET
Personally I don’t think finishing 6th is worthy of COY
Hockeydad • 05/03/22 12:23 PM ET

Here here TD. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/03/22 02:49 PM ET
👍👍👍**
RJHokie • 05/03/22 11:08 AM ET
I think Pete or UVA probably
VTsportscaster • 05/03/22 09:32 AM ET
The only thing uva deserves is to be smacked around.**
Blueboy • 05/03/22 01:53 PM ET
👍👍👍**
RJHokie • 05/03/22 03:35 PM ET

IB4TECH • 05/03/22 10:36 AM ET
Kind of a fuzzy award in ways, I see "improvement" being the biggest
`lag • 05/03/22 09:58 AM ET
Respectable
Techdady • 05/03/22 10:03 AM ET
Do we consider the flashy digs?**
IB4TECH • 05/03/22 10:38 AM ET
That's my point, it's a fuzzy award "bad to respectable" might be...
`lag • 05/03/22 10:22 AM ET
Feel good
Techdady • 05/03/22 10:30 AM ET
At this point, I think it has to be D'Amour. Preseason, Tech was picked
dallasvt • 05/03/22 09:41 AM ET
Yeah, math curve there, those last few spots get increasingly harder
`lag • 05/03/22 10:54 AM ET
Plus Pete actively went after and secured a tough schedule where others
RJHokie • 05/03/22 09:37 AM ET
And mostly took care of business
OKDokeyHokie • 05/03/22 02:42 PM ET
Reminds me a little how F$U built their football brand
EDGEMAN • 05/03/22 12:16 PM ET
Yeah that was a brutal schedule - good point**
VT_AD • 05/03/22 09:56 AM ET
It darn well better not go to Dook, who played a cream puff schedule.**
