"That comes from watching the ACC growing up and its reputation." With Stanford out of the picture, the battle is now between the two archrivals. Dunleavy had originally planned on making his decision on Nov. 11, the first day of the early signing period, and his delayed announcement has surprised many, includ ing his coach. "I have no idea [which school he will choose]," Potter said. "I was surprised he hadn't made up his mind already, to be honest. I thought he would have decided earlier." Potter also denies reports that Dunleavy had a bad recruiting visit while in Chapel Hill. Reports had indi cated that Dunleavy was turned off by North Carolina because few Carolina players talked with him and the game he saw was poorly attended. "He said both [trips] were tremendous experi ences," Potter said. "There was nothing he told me about [the trip to UNC being bad]." Should Dunleavy commit' to the Blue Devils, he would join an already loaded class of 2003.

ADEMOLA OKULAJA, ON TEAMMATE ED COTA
Those who will are junior Ed Cota and senior Ademola Okulaja. The two are the only returning players from last year's six-man starting rotation. And while no one would deny their talent, both will have to adjust to a more prominent role. "One ofthe problems of returning players on a new team is whether they can be successful in the role they are called upon to play," Guthridge said. "I know they will both average more points, but if they try to do too much, we will not be successful." Okulaja has always been a successful role play er, and he was named Dick Vitale's Role Player of the Year last season. But the 6-foot-9 forward has only averaged 7.4 points and 5.8 rebounds a year over his career, and both numbers will have to increase this season. 1 "I don't feel pressure, not too much pressure," From early-morning classes to the Berlin native said.

When the dust settled, the new leader was Gillen, a man equally renowned for his dry wit and his coaching abilities. "Everybody's predicting gloom and doom.... I think we'll be better than you win what people think." PETE GILLEN, VIRGINIA'S NEW HEAD COACH Surely Gillen understood what kind of a situation he was stepping into, didn't he? or ' "We're not going to set goals concerning the number of games we're going to win," Gillen said. "Time will tell how that turns out." That's a smart attitude, since only four ACC coaches since 1960 have posted winning records in their debut seasons. And you can pretty much erase from that list Pat Kennedy, who wasn't a rookie when his Florida State squad joined the ACC, and Bill Guthridge, who inherited a Final Four caliber team last year. Where does that leave Gillen, whose top returning players are thus-far mediocre performers Colin Ducharme and Willie Dersch? The six returning Wahoos averaged a combined 23.2 points and 15.0 rebounds per game last year. No one would expect Gillen to succeed in such a terrible environment, a landscape so desolate that the new coach has invited a whopping five walk-ons to join the team. Things are so bad, they might actually work in the Cavs' favor. At least there won't be any pressure.

Still, only 1,600 people showed up to watch the Cavs' win last week, prompting the question: If a tree falls—or Willie Dersch fouls—in University Hall, but no one is there to see it, does it make a sound? In order to fill all those empty seats, Gillen is turn NORTHGATE ing toward a wide-open full-court approach that might be the antithesis of Jones' half-court style.

I'm going to have to work on that a lit tle more. "He's certainly one of the best players in the country." MIKE KRZYZEWSKI, ON TR/UAN LANGDON "We need multiple leaders. It was apparent last year that our main leader was Steve, but I think that behind the scenes, I did some, in terms of talk ing to people on the sidelines. I wasn't the emo tional leader on the court. We need a more vocal fkinOwsames person on the court to kind of direct the team, besides Coach K, and that's something I'm going to try to do." And with all of Langdon's accomplishments, as well as his maturity—having redshirted the '95-96 season due to a knee injury, he is in his fifth year at Duke— the rest of the Blue Devils will look to him for guid Whatever your game plan - business, pleasure, visiting your child, catching a ance.

"Trajan hasn't been as much of a vocal leader as affordable escape to fun. You'll find comfortable, spacious Steve was," sophomore Shane Battier said, "but part of growing up is doing things that one is not primarily guest rooms and suites, splendid dining in Tipton's accustomed to doing, and I think Trajan will step up to that challenge admirably."

Come as early as Thursday and enjoy a free sive force than in previous seasons. After spending the summer playing on the USA Continental breakfast each day or trade up to a full World Championship Team, Langdon believes the experience of competing in an international setting breakfast. All this just minutes from Duke University campus. Enjoy! and working with professional players has paid off. He feels the experience gave him a chance to improve both his athleticism and his shooting. In the game against Team Fokus, Langdon proved to his team mates, his opponents and the crowd that he had indeed reaped the benefits of playing on the World Championship Tfeam. Krzyzewski has also seen an improvement in Langdon's game since last year. "I've been pleased with Langdon in that the expe rience playing for the World Championship NBA Hilton team and seeing them compete for the world champi onship really helped him," Krzyzewski said. "He's Durham quicker. I bet he's probably about five pounds lighter. He's still strong, but he's handling it better. He's 3800 Hillsborough Road, Durham, NC 27705 much more explosive. He's certainly one of the best players in the country."

And if Avery is able to "Official Hotel of Duke Athletics" build upon his improvement from the preseason, Langdon may find himself also playing on one of the best backcourts in the country.

"I would prefer us to focus on how hard we play," over the course ofthe season." But every night he is going to half to go out and prove it. I think he will be hungry to prove himself this year as one ofthe best." Jamison was not a starter for most of the season but led the Tigers in rebounding with 7.3 boards per game. The main concern for Jamison is whether he can improve on the dreadful 48.1 percent he shot from the foul line last season. Though the team is mostly intact, it most cope with the loss of leading scorer Greg Bucker, who averaged 16.3 points last year and was generally regarded as the Tigers' go-to guy. Though Buckner was the leader of last year's team, Mclntyre thinks that losing him might actually be an advantage. "You never know who is going to step up," he said. "I think several guys are going to step up. We have a really balanced team. Last year it seemed like at times we were just standing and watching Greg. This year everyone is going to have to focus on their game." Jamison felt that the Tigers' occasional defensive lapses last season, not the loss of Buckner, were the primary concern. "I think that there were times last year when we had some [defensive] slippage," Jamison said. "I think we were okay but not as good as we have been or as we could have been. But I think that happens N.C. State From page 14 is set up where you can put different guys in and things will still work no matter what. We have a pret ty good playmaker in Justin. Archie's going to do a lot of scoring, and Justin's always been a solid contributor passing the ball. Every year he's getting better." Joining Thornton in the frontcourt is Kenny Inge, a 6-8 sophomore who was an ACC All-Freshman hon- oree last season. He led the team in rebounding while scoring 11 points per game, the highest for any return ing player at State. "I think Kenny's had a productive offseason; I think he's gotten stronger," Sendek said. "He continues to develop all aspects of his game. As a freshman he played almost exclusively around the basket, and I ENROLL NOW think he continues to feel more comfortable with other aspects of his game."

"I'm still in the first wave of people doing this." she says, "but I think this is really, in some sense, the publishing future, precisely because [you] can do a better product." Tetel has become part of a small community of writers who support each other in their ground-breaking efforts, and she has teamed up with ten other writers to form The Author's Studio—a consortium of small presses owned by multi-published authors of popular fiction. A Julie Tetel Reader Neff Rotter, a member of the studio who writes under the name of Elizabeth Neff Walker, hailed Tetel as the driving force behind the group. If Julie Tetel's newest novel "Julie was one of the first to recognize that if we as writers wished to have some degree The Blue Hour leaves you of control over our writing careers, we needed to look at the long term and consider whether hungering for more it wouldn't be wise to arrange for publishing our own work."

Sweet Suspicions Tetel reinforces this sentiment by pointing to the homogeneity of the covers of many "genre novels'-murder mysteries often show a raised hand holding a dagger. Westerns sport Tangled Dreams "a guy on a horse" and science fiction novels display swirling planets. "That's a marketing decision by the people in New York to improve their bottom line, and it may or may not have anything to do with the interest of the individual reader," she says. "But it The Temporary Bride is amazing how easily we have bought into all the categories that New York has fed us." The Viking's Bride Indeed. Tetel seems skeptical of the very rigid, and sometimes arbitrary, categorizing of novels into different special interest genres. In many ways, her independent publishing efforts protect her book from this kind of categorization and may even propel The Blue HourXo reach a different, and more diverse, audience than do her other novels.
