After winning the ACC in Football, Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer was named ACC coach of the year. Tech was picked to finish 8th.
In Basketball, Virginia Tech was picked to finish 10th in an 11-team league. They scratched and clawed their way to fourth place, behind Duke, UNC, and Wake Forest (who are seeded 1st, 1st, and 2nd in the NCAA Tourney) That earned Head Basketball Coach Seth Greenberg the title of ACC Coach of the Year.
Tech also earned an invite to the NIT tournament, which CNN/SI apparently doesn't think is important enough to cover.

Posted by: Ravenwood at March 16, 2005 11:26 AMNot a Virginia Tech fan at all, but I've got to say, the fact that they can finish 4th in the ACC and be left out of the big dance seems rather unconscionable to me.
