OOTB Carolina Basketball Discussion Thread

i was present for bloody sunday when one seeded unc and two seeded dook lost in the first rd in the same gym to penn and st johns. Unc played first. A man and his 8ish yr old son were in front of us. They were dook fans. This was my first exposure to an abc'er roooting against unc. It really bothered me cause i planned on rooting for dook next game. I just couldnt understand someone in our conf and state rooting against us. To make things worse the boy kept turning around and taunting us as it became apparent we were choking it away as so many dean smith teams did at that time. So we lose but we stick around for the dook game. Well they lose. As the geme ends the kids dad is busy talking and i see the kid is crying. I thump his ear and as he turns clutching his ear with tears running down his face i lean over and whisper "thats what u get for rooting against unc u little shyt!" Thus began my hatred for dook.

Side note Penn made it to the final four before losing to mich state. What really sucks is that we beat mich st earlier that year.
 
Semi related, it's very funny to me that State is so bad this year because I had so many people tell me that once Dennis Smith got to Raleigh, he was gonna save the program and they were gonna go to the Final Four and he would win NPOY and all this other stuff. Granted, if we lose to them in Raleigh, those people will act like all that happened, but it's hilarious to me that they are doing so bad
Regardless of how he plays against us, this season has made it clear that Moo can't simply be fixed by an infusion of talent. They should be far, far better than they are and it certainly seems like Gottfried is the problem.
 
Those that may revel in the demise of NCSt. may be having a field day soon.

I'm hearing some Dennis Smith rumors that may end up costing the wolpfies 'bigly' . .

Yow is the problem. No coach at this level wants to work for a micromanager

Sorry if this has been mentioned (and I never go to Radar) and who cares if this is a Syracuse player...just heard Fab Melo passed. RIP. Far, far too soon. :(

It sucks not being able to see a game, but this break came at a good time for us with Hicks having an injury. Gives him more time to recover without (hopefully) missing another game.

Apparently Williams is hurt now. In the ND game he hurt his leg and it looked kind of like a calf to me. All they are saying it is a lower leg injury, like a hockey deal or something.
 
wonder what archie miller's buyout is...he was just extended last year.

would like to help in any way to assist in coaching vacancies at state, but would rather gottfried stay there than them upgrade.
 
If Kenny can't go who do you guys think will start? I'm thinking that Roy might still want to ease Theo back in, so Nate would get the start.
