2 straight games now….Love had 9 rebounds last game and now Davis 10 this game? Out rebounding our twin towers ? All against weak competition……things that make you go hhhhuuuummm.

Somebody need to sit with Bacot and Nance and have a heart to heart.

In addition Mondo just ain’t fighting for position or demanding the ball. I can’t blame the guards for not looking for him in THIS game because he is just not fighting for position. Now I’m wondering about his conditioning.

Trey and I are on press row tonight and Kevin is shooting.

Will the Tar Heels actually ourebound and opponent? How many assists will they rack ?

3 dead, 2 wounded in a shooting last night. Suspect, who is a former football player, is at large and school is locked down.

5 current players shot as they returned on a bus from a drama class field trip to a play.

Roy Williams opens up about Michael Jordan, Dean Smith, Duke, and why he retired​

Roy Williams is probably a well-known name to you and to most sports fans. What you won’t know, however, is all the stories Williams tells in this wide-ranging interview — tales about Michael Jordan, Dean Smith, Duke, what Williams considers to be the greatest shot in UNC history (it wasn’t Jordan’s in 1982), why he once grew a mustache, and more. (AOL.com)

UNC fans don’t you fret…Mondo’s rebounding numbers will improve you can bet.
Yes, the NIL money has made him fat and happy…..but wait till March he will be ready to claim the Natty.

Bless RJ the Dribbler with a fiddle so he can figure out the riddle…..that one must not dribble and dribble because the shot clock will dwindle and dwindle.

Bless Styles with a pair of hands so he can catch the pass that lands directly into his tiny bad hands so no more will he fumble the ball again.

Finally my children, always remember to Love the one who have the nuts to shoot the ball in the clutch that win the games we want to win so much. The one that is the leader of men that plays the game from end to end…the one that was sent from hoop heaven above….the one we call Caleb Love.

Goodnight Children

James Madison started the season as a creampuff at #127 on kenpom. After 4 wins over other creampuffs, Pomeroy has them at #82.

This team has never faced such tough competition. Can we handle it?

I want to think our guys have just been waiting for tougher competition to show their true colors, but who knows?

Will the odds-makers and @Steat adjust their expectations downward? Will you?

I haven’t seen an injury update on Antoine Green and am hoping he will be playing soon. I am curious about Andre Green. He was more highly rated than Josh Downs out of high school. I think I read that he was having back pain earlier in the season. Perhaps they are trying to preserve his redshirt. Is Andre available to play if Antoine is not?
