I have said for years that if we continue to finish 7th or 8th in home attendance - 50% of capacity on average - we will have a problem recruiting or retaining players. Against Maryland, there were a bunch of very visible empty seats. And please, no "if the product was better, people would come"...
Agree as well. Limits on transfers is essential if we want to stop this team-jumping. If you think about it, it's bad for the game in the sense that most of these kids were heavily recruited, made a choice, and a year or two later are gone. Why should a coach recruit anybody out of HS just to...
I had a shoulder injury in HS that led to repeated dislocations. Eventually surgery was required that fortunately fixed the problem.
If I'm not mistaken Tierra Ruffin-Pratt had a shoulder problem that required wearing a brace. She (and her family) put off surgery but eventually it was obviously...
I think Blanca has had a disappointing year for the most part, as evidenced by her reduced playing time.
I think you are right about the conditioning. Frankly, I thought she had put on some weight. My weightlifting buddies always say "a pound of muscle weighs more than a pound of fat" and in...
We did exactly what we could not do: have a bad quarter against this team. Take away that, and the game was at least somewhat competitive. UConn is an awesome team: McDonald's AAs and International veterans at every position. Hopefully someday we will figure out how to get the Sarah Strong types...
- I was gonna look up when the last time the heels had back to back top four seeds in the NCAA...
1993-1995: 4,3,4
1997-1999: 1,2,4
2002-2009: 4,3,4,1,1,1,1,3
2013-2015: 3,4,4
2025-26: 3,4?
We are indeed hosting but we will have to wait until tomorrow who will be coming to town. Also, to host we need to be a 4 seed at least. Be great if we could again be a 3 seed.
…and the 2025-26 season is down to its last few games. On Sunday, Carolina will learn who it will play and where in the NCAA Tournament. The tournament does provide for a maximum of six games, but for that a team would have to reach the final championship game. If UNC is selected as a host site...
We are a couple of hours away from our semifinal matchup with Louisville. They are ranked #12 (UNC #16), and are 26-6 on the season. The #2-seeded Cardinals made short work of #7 Syracuse 87-61, putting six players into double figures.
The starting lineup is basically what has been the case for...
Well, our quarterfinal opponent is decided, and it will be Virginia Tech. They Are 23-8 on the season. They defeated Georgia Tech earlier this evening, overcoming a lousy first quarter where they trailed 7-17.
Their lineup is basically the same as the one we played up in Blacksburg, three weeks...
