Special guests this week on ACC Nation Podcast/Radio are Les Johns and Scott Hamilton. Johns, the Publisher of Demon Deacon Digest talks with us about the pluses in the Wake Forest football program. Never to miss an opportunity we also ask about Steve Forbes, the new men's basketball coach for the Deacs. Hamilton, a veteran columnist and radio host joins us in the second half to share thoughts on the ACC football weekend and some games that are coming up. You won't want to miss Johns and Hamilton on this week's episode.

Right off the bat we get a 'taste' for North Carolina BBQ with Les giving a plug to Bibs in Winston-Salem.

A look at the positions of strength -

* The wide receivers* Quarterback play* Developing Quarterback talent* Building a relationship with wide receivers* Insight into the running game* Why Wake Forest programs fly under the radar nationally* What makes special teams so special?

Then we move over to the Wake Forest men's basketball team and the addition of Steve Forbes. Les drops a tease for an interesting story involving Forbes that he's working on.

* Who is the expected leading scorer?* Building the future through recruiting - is COVID19 slowing up the process?* The facilities are a great selling tool

What Les considers to be 'great music' wraps up the interview.

Johns And Hamilton

Our next guest, Scott Hamilton brings his wit to our review of the weekend's games in the ACC.

* Miami over UAB - D'Eriq King delivers but are there still weaknesses?* North Carolina over Syracuse - Should we have expected more from the Orange?* How many teams would love to have Tommy DeVito?* Georgia Tech is a team on the rise. Should anyone be shocked by the win?* Is Florida State what they used to be under Bobby Bowden?* Pitt opens with a big win. Can the Panthers keep the offense rolling?* Notre Dame comes up with a win against Duke. Brice looks good at QB for the Blue Devils. Ian Book delivers for the Irish.* It's difficult to gauge teams this early in 'this season' but we weigh both teams as evenly as possible.* Faustian deals* Louisville delivers on opening day. Satterfield is a people person. Is the coming challenger to Clemson?* Clemson and Wake Forest - Is Dave Clawson one of the best coaches in America? Will the Demon Deacons pick up 7 or 8 wins?

Then we jump forward to take a look at some of the games on the schedule. A few quick previews -

* Miami at Louisville - This game is the start of the ACC season. This should be Game Day material.* UCF and Georgia Tech - Yes there was a win....but* Boston College at Duke - Don't bet against David Cutcliffe.

A serious note about how COVID19 has impacted sports media.

With a little experience on a fairway or two we ask Scott what his favorite golf course is and he doesn't hesitate.
