    Uh Oh in UNC land

    They like those clicks, they’ll say anything to get them.

    Uh Oh in UNC land

    That’s incorrect, we were going to take Catchings or Stevenson & when Catchings didn’t meet his commitment window, Hubert pulled the plug & took Stevenson. We are no longer recruiting Catchings, & in fact, he committed to Georgia minutes after Hubert accepted Stevenson’s commitment.

    The coaching of Jon Scheyer

    I’d rather have Scheyer as our coach than Hubert Davis. Edit to add - I hope he proves me wrong.

    Auburn vs Duke

    Angus Barn is the ticket. A great dining experience & great food.

    Other Games 24-25 Season

    I don’t mean any disrespect in this post, but it’s just an observation. I think because of all the 5 stars you bring in that demand playing time, some players get relegated to a lesser role, that given the proper chance could prove themselves worthy of more PT. I know I’m in the minority on Joey...

    Duke baseball/CWS -- 2024 season

    What’s key is to look at a teams #1 pitcher. I don’t know anything about UConn but if any #3 or #4 seed has a lock down ace, they can take out at #1 or #2 & then suck after that. Pitching matchups are so important this time of year, they can be the difference in an early exit or a deep run.

    Duke baseball/CWS -- 2024 season

    State hosting a regional over Duke is a crime. Duke definitely got screwed, not sure of any agenda but it certainly seems like one might be in play.

    Not going to be a popular take since I'm from the opposite side of the tracks, but Evans is going to be a disappointment IMO. Gillis was an outstanding pick up and I think will be on the floor over a lot of guys (not just Evans) in crunch time. He's experienced and savvy, and has played in a...

    Transfer Portal

    I qualified that you all would likely disagree. This is just my take and if I'm wrong it won't be the first or last time. Not every 5 star has to play 30 min per game. I think Drake is wired different in that aspect, he's more of a team guy that can impact a game in a lot of ways. I also...

    NIL makes the narrative different. Neither Bacot nor Davis stays 5 years without NIL money, they would otherwise be overseas playing.

    Transfer Portal

    Jackson can play the 3 & Powell the 4 in Ingram’s role. I don’t think Powell is expecting more than 15 min per game. Jackson may be a different story, but if I had to guess, I don’t think RJ is expecting his same role coming back. I think his points were a necessity last year but may not be...

    Transfer Portal

    It won't be UNC, so if it's down to those 3 it's Duke or UConn. I can't say with 100% certainty yet, but I think Cade Tyson is taking that spot for the Heels. I'll also say that Scheyer has done his best job to date this year in the portal. Brown and Gillis are 2 monster pick ups for you guys...

    Top Recruiting Classes Are Getting Old

    Maybe their role would be the similar, but he would be a huge upgrade over Ryan Young.

    Scheyer has gotten some decent pieces from the portal, but not really a game changer yet. If he lands Brown, that would be his first A+ from the portal IMO, he would be an impact player and for that reason I'm hoping he goes elsewhere.

    Top Recruiting Classes Are Getting Old

    There’s no doubt you win it in 2011 if Kyrie doesn’t get injured. McRoberts & K had friction, there was no way he was coming back for year 3, much less 4. Kind of like Shavlik, they both wanted out as soon as they could make it happen.
