Looking at the ACC, I'd be foolish to say that this team will leap schools like UNC, Virginia, & Duke. It may also be tough to say Pitt will finish ahead of the next tier of teams like Louisville, NCSU and Notre Dame. The so-called experts are picking Pitt around 10th and outside the NCAA tourney. But I just do not see it. The rule changes might change things a bit and it remains to be seen if it will have an effect on our team. But having a 4 year starter at PG helps in this regard and I am expecting James to have his best year yet. I won't get into specifics and will leave them to those who respond to this thread. But I have a good feeling about this team, and finishing in the top half of the league is very possible in my eyes. I think 6th-8th is very likely. Games vs FSU, Miami, and Syracuse will be crucial for Pitt.
