The ACC boasted two first-team All-Americans on two absolutely fantastic teams last season. One was UNC’s Brice Johnson, who not so quietly put together one of the best big man senior seasons in recent memory. Just a few days ago, he found his jersey placed up in the rafters of the Dean Dome. But even with all the dunks, double-doubles and emphatic swats, Johnson couldn’t take the ACC Player of the Year award away from Virginia’s Malcolm Brogdon. This year, a Tar Heel should be able to win the award for the first time since Tyler Zeller in 2011-12.
Justin Jackson should be the ACC Player of the Year
