FSU takes on Louisville for temporary control of the ACC (Duke still holds the tie-breaker over FSU). The way this program has evolved over the last decade has been remarkable.
It’s one of the many reasons Leonard Hamilton is a semifinalist for the Naismith Coach of The Year Award.
Men’s Basketball locked up a double-bye in the ACC Tournament.

Women’s Hoops is still in good position for a double-bye but a not-so-good loss to Georgia Tech has put them in Jeopardy of losing that privilege.
It was a clean weekend on the diamond.

Daniel Jeremiah has Cam Akers in his top five:
My top 5 RB heading into NFL Scouting Combine
— Daniel Jeremiah (@MoveTheSticks) February 23, 2020
1) Swift
2) Edwards-Helaire
3) Dobbins
4) Taylor
5) Akers
(Updated Top 50 will post on Monday morning on https://t.co/IioVYRRm2b)
As a three-down back I’d only take Edwards-Helaire over Cam but Cam does have ball security questions that he will have to answer.
Speaking of great FSU running backs Dalvin Cook wants a new contract; should he hold out?
For running backs my answer is always yes.
