Quick post this Tuesday morning. Only one game on the schedule tonight as Clemson hosts Wake Forest. If Wake Forest could somehow steal a win on the road, the Demon Deacons would move to 3-1 early in conference play. It has some Wake Forest fans reconsidering their earlier criticism of Jeff Bzdelik. Wake Forest is still an extremely young team with a couple solid core pieces in CJ Harris and Travis Mckie, so it should be no surprise that the team start slow and improve as the season goes along.
Virginia is pretty banged up with Akil Mitchell reinjuring a high ankle sprain over the weekend, and Darion Atkins dealing with a stress reaction or as Bennett described it, shin splints on steroids. The good news for Virginia is that they won't play again until Saturday.
Duke announced that Seth Curry's ankle injury is relatively minor, but Ryan Kelly's injury remains a mystery.
The other news from Monday is that the ACC is starting to look into what it would take to start the ACC Network. It's a pretty cool idea and whether it is successful or not, it started this on twitter so I'd call that a win.
