The coach said hes anxious to see how his team performs as it begins that transformation.It will be a step-by-step process, he said. Were not going to launch right to the top of the ACC or the polls in Game One.

Theres a lot of new things happening here.The coaching staff saved one of the more memorable events of the new era for last Saturday night. Thats when the team gathered in the locker room at Scott Stadium and 61 of them were allowed to choose their jersey and number.
