Chris Graham: My All-ACC Ballot

Contributors

I have as a member of the Atlantic Coast Sports Media Association a vote on the All-ACC teams.

At the risk of my sanity, here’s how I filled out my ballot for the 2011 season.

Last time I posted my ballot, at the end of the 2010-2011 basketball season, I was pilloried by North Carolina fans for not voting for more of their players for the various postseason honors.

I’m sure there will be other groups of fans upset with these selections. I’m OK with that.

Here we go …

Coach of the Year: Mike London, Virginia
Offensive Rookie of the Year: Sammy Watkins, Clemson
Defensive Rookie of the Year: Merrill Noel, Wake Forest
Offensive Player of the Year: Tajh Boyd, Clemson
Defensive Player of the Year: David Amerson, N.C. State
Overall Player of the Year: Tajh Boyd, Clemson
