Head coach Leonard Hamilton is excited for another competitive ACC season.

“Our ACC schedule proves one thing – there are no nights off in the ACC,” Head Coach Leonard Hamilton said in a release. “All of the teams in our league continue to improve, and it continues to get harder and harder to play on the road in this league. The ACC has the best collection of teams in the country, and no matter how your schedule is set you have to be at your best every game. The added excitement for our fans are 20 league games and games played in November and December, as well as the traditional months of January, February and March.

“The move to 20 games is great for the college game and will have people talking about our league from the first day of the season. Each game takes on a much greater meaning, and we will be playing for positions in the standings all year. The idea that you have to be at your best from the opening tip of the season is exciting to our players and staff and especially our fans.”
