Adam Lucas is one of the best sportswriters in America. His latest article is yet another difficult but heartfelt look into Eric Montross’s Annual Father’s Day Camp. This is another can’t miss read from Adam Lucas. To say that Eric is sorely missed along with Stuart Scott and other Tar Heels who have had their lives cut short by this dreaded disease known as cancer is a vast understatement. Thx to all who graciously gave their time and expertise to make Eric’s Camp live on. In the world where we have the ever changing college game with the NIL and transfer portal this article reminded me of what makes us so different than every other school in the country. FAMILY

Providence Day quarterback Zaid Lott has started one high school game, but he committed to UNC on Thursday, months before his junior season. Lott played behind two-time N.C. Mr. Football Jadyn Davis the past two seasons. "He’s got great parents and they were like, ‘We’re all in on Chapel Hill and we’re not going through the (recruiting) process.’" (MSN.com)

has 10 SEC teams.

Football money and power can raise enough excess wealth to upgrade all other sports. Top basketball money and power are almost impotent in terms of helping anything, even the conference where it seems to have its greater expression. The power of top level basketball in college athletics is barely more than that of top level college baseball.

Any school that could have been a bigger football power and failed to do that while basking in silly basketball glory is a damned fool.

The numbers are in, and SMU means business. The Mustangs’ athletic department announced this week it reached a new fundraising record of $159 million during the 2023–24 fiscal year. Most of those funds were secured during the week following the September 1 announcement that the school would move to the Atlantic Coast Conference. (Front Office Sports)

The lord works in mysterious ways

Lest we forget, this is the first week of the summer basketball camps, which means the accompanying organized pickup games.
Waiting for more info, but the currents vs alums game is happening NEXT week apparently, but they've already had a game with a couple of alums (Danny Green played) mixed in.

Anyway, some quick stuff from a text, and it sounds consistent with what some of us have already been hearing:
High and Withers showed out... EC lit it up from outside... Tyson was as advertised, and the frosh (Jackson & Powell) showed they belong.

Hopefully more later and hopefully some bootlegged vid will show up, as it usually does ...
