    Bilas tweet about '86 team

    I am a Tar Heel but I for some reason absolutely loved this group/team. Watched them take absolute beatings as freshman to superior teams but just a tough, tough TEAM the likes of which unfortunately we no longer see in college basketball any more. After we got bounced in sweet 16 by Louisville...

    NC State

    I'm a Heel fan but don't particularly hate State. I agree with above posters that the new coach could be very good. It seems they are due for some success. Ironically I know a lot here won't believe it but I actually like Duke football and pull for them unless they are playing the Heels. Main...

    Why was Zion named in the FBI trial?

    Because he was recruited by Kansas maybe?

    Would Duke have cut the nets down withTHIS Giles???

    The team was loaded even without Giles at full strength. I do believe there is a good chance they go all the way with a healthy Giles. After the ACC tourney I as an opposing fan felt they had finally come together and were on a roll. They just ran into a very underated South Carolina team...

    Hopefully K can coach til 2026

    Disclosure: I am a Tar Heel fan. I have attended 3 Final Fours in three different cities. Those being Seattle, Houston, and Phoenix. Not just because we won but Phoenix was by far the best of the three. I can't believe that Phoenix has only hosted one because the city really went all out and...

    Bagley says he should be the No. 1 pick

    I am a Heels fan but Bagley is the best player available and by far. I don't even know why this is up for debate. He is a special talent in my eyes.

    Favorite Duke team of all time?

    Tar Heel fan here. I remember 78 well Gminski, Spanarkel, Banks, Denard and Harrell. But I am too young to remember 66 that was mentioned here. Can somebody give a recap of that team and players?

    Kentucky's path to the Final Four

    I disagree that a Final Four loss is more painful than a Sweet 16 loss. Once you have reached the Final 4 you have definitely achieved something even if you lose there. The most painful losses for me by far are Elite 8 losses. So Close to the Final Four but no cigar. I do agree the South is...

    Winner (and loser) of 2nd Duke/UNC Tournament records since Roy

    Yeah that's interesting. I'm a Heels fan. Another point and it's a sore one to me is how many times over the past 20 years Duke has won the first match up between the teams when the game is played in Chapel Hill. 2000, 02, 04, 06, 08, 10, 12, 16

    Small Coach K Story

    I don't like Duke basketball as UNC fan but I always believed K is a class guy. Nobody will convince me otherwise. Yeah he uses profanity some but who doesn't?
