I shot this video standing outside UNC's locker room after winning the title in 2017.

smallest audience for men's Final on record.

The 1st take away is that TV #s and wins, even National Championships, do not correlate. TV pays for viewers, not for teams with winning records. Same for hoops as for football.

That means that unequal revenue sharing in a league based on winning is stupid. For unequal revenue to work to get the rightly needed ends, it must be based on TV #s. Those with the most viewers get the most money.

UConn basketball, even when winning another NC, cannot deliver viewers. If Syracuse, which hs easily the largest hoops draw of teams in the northeast, had been playing SDSU for the Championship, the TV numbers would have been higher. If it had been UNC or Dook vs. SDSU, the #s would have been higher still.

Watched the QB/WR video and saw him on the sidelines. Isn't he the Lions cornerback coach?

I figured he'd be with the team discussing the draft and whatnot. Has he not started with them?

ETA: I havent read much since football season ended. I apologize if this has been discussed in another thread.

Per UNC: "British Brooks is working back into team portions of practice. He's still 'thud' so no tackling or scrimmage, but he's making progress."

Is the best women's basketball player I have ever seen play. I would actually pay money to see her perform.Last night against the vaunted Sc,
She scored 41 pts,8 assists and 6 rebounds. She scored or assisted on 31 of Iowas 38 pts in the first half, she scored or assisted on 75% of her team's total points for the game. SC has a massive front line and plays tough tenacious d..they tried everything to stop her but could not...she is deadly from 3 land caneasily drive by her defender for layups and us perfect at the ft line..yet she loves to assist her teammates.

Women's college ball does not do much for me overall...but watching this young woman play is an exception.She is a treat to watch play the game.

I’m assuming UNC will accept the invite and not take a team vote

Hopefully, Hubert and the #1 Recruiting Class in the Country will all be intact come November 2024. This Tournament has been good to the Tar Heels over the years and has led to a few 🏆

I always wondered why more players didn't go to that beautiful state.
