Andrew Miller, David Wang, James Gayle and Kyhshoen Jarrett were Honorable Mention All-ACC.
Hard to believe James Gayle is not a first team player.
Cognrats to both Ke Fuller and Facyson. We’d be lucky to keep both of them all 4 years.
10 MORE FULLERS! 10 MORE FULLERS! 10 MORE FULLERS!
Does Vince have any kids yet?
You think it could work if the parents were to adopt?
Congratulations to you Kendall! Great job. I also hope this shows our coaches that the number of stars can make a difference.
True but Fayscon was not far behind Kendall and he was a 3 star(vs a 5). Without his injury, BF may have beaten out KF. Both are outstanding.
Especially proud of Kendall being a Hokie and Baltimorean myself. Great job Kendall and all the Fuller Brothers.
I think Brandon Facyson would have been ACC Def Rookie of Year if werent for his concussion
He had a great season too, but how do you figure that?
I think you might be right, he also got bumped with the return of Exum, his playing time decreased and the couple that with being hurt. His reps don’t compare to Fullers. They both played ridiculously well for being freshman, kudos to both players!
