In Friday’s ACC action, three laughers as Virginia Tech beat UMES 85-40, Georgia Tech smacked Kennesaw State 87-57 and NC State rolled over Loyola 97-64.
The Wolfpack thus concludes the non-conference schedule at 12-1 which means that, after a ridiculously weak schedule, we’ll finally find out just how good State is.
Post play is still questionable but there’s no doubt that Kevin Keatts has a dynamic backcourt. How will it work at a higher level of competition? We’ll know soon.
State started four guards against Loyola and grad student transfer Wyatt Walker. That’ll be interesting in ACC play but Keatts has shown that he’s a tremendous and resourceful coach.
