With Midnight Madness looming Friday night and the annual dashing of the ACC’s BCS title hopes in the rearview mirror, it’s time to turn up the ACC basketball coverage to 11 here at the ACC Microsite.

This season the ACC appears to be a microcosm for the country: No one team stands out as a far-and-away favorite, but a long dormant historical power is attracting preseason accolades. That said, five of the 12 schools have a legitimate chance at contending for the regular season title. A parity-filled league should make for a rollercoaster season for fans up and down the east coast. It’s also the final year before newcomers Pittsburgh, Syracuse and (presumably) Notre Dame join the fold.

Joining Kellen Carpenter and me (Matt Patton) this season will be talented writers Ethan Mann and Adam Rowe of Duke Hoop Blog. We’ve also added a twitter account @rtcACC, where you can get to know the writers and find quick takes along with the articles.
