Offseason Vibe Checks 2025: The ACC

© Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images

The Offseason Vibe Check series continues with the ACC, as Rodger Sherman joins Alex and Richard to talk about the state of the league. It's not a 2024 recap, and it's not a 2025 preview. It's a check-in with every team in every FBS conference about what's been happening since Thanksgiving. How was the postseason? How was the coach carousel? How was signing day? How was the transfer portal window? And is anything else going on around your program?

  • Pitt finished on an 0-6 run but has continuity in some important spots

  • Florida State makes wholesale changes after going 2-10 with one FBS win over Cal by five points

  • Jake Dickert takes over at Wake Forest after Dave Clawson stepped away without making it all about him

  • Virginia Tech’s make-or-break year approaches

  • Cal adds some funny culture fits

  • Belichick’s UNC is talking funny about operating like an NFL program

  • SMU appears to be building on its playoff season

  • Duke might be in the best shape of its football life

  • Syracuse recruits a massive class as Fran Brown tries to build

  • “We’re all on in Georgia Tech, right?”

  • Clemson steps into the transfer portal at last

  • NC State’s party might be over, but give Dave Doeren a chance

  • Miami gets itself involved (of course) in a major legal matter

  • BC and UVA make quarterback swaps

  • Is Louisville about to have a highly drafted NFL QB to recruit off of?

  • Palace intrigue at Stanford involving Andrew Luck (!)
