ACC Hoops Standings - Week of 2/9

The biggest news of the week in the conference came off the court, with plenty of implications for the remainder of the ACC season.

The administration at the University of Louisville did their best to dump the big news on Friday afternoon, but it was absolutely the story of the college hoops weekend. The Louisville brass decided to self-impose a postseason ban following a mysterious update from the NCAA regarding their investigation into the program's alleged use of prostitutes for recruiting visits.

The attempted self-penalty likely suggests a damning investigation by the NCAA, with the team sacrificing a chance at a major postseason run sitting at 19-4 on the season in order to mitigate the hammer likely to come down on them.
