College basketball trivia question.

All turned down by Roy at some point? (Only to take UNC back later)?
The only thing that I can think of is that they've all lost to Duke multiple times but I know that's probably not the answer.
Winner, winner, chicken dinner. Wake recruited him out of Oak Hill but there were some violations and he was declared ineligible. Best thing that could have happened for Wake. Then on to Mich. where he played a couple of years. He then transferred to UNC to play under Dean Smith for one year which means Coach Smith did recruit him despite knowing what was inside the package. He played his last year under Coach Guthridge where he had all sorts of behavior issues including spitting on Utah's Brett Jenson and making a throat cut gesture in front of members of Coach K's family and other Duke fans. None the less he is UNC family despite the fact that a good portion of UNC nation either doesn't claim him, remember him or know that he played for UNC. What is really funny to me is with all the integrity and sound judgement of "the Carolina Way" what in the daggum world is UNC recruiting a guy like this for ? But once you think about it there were many before him and have been many after him who have played down at the hill and cruised Franklin St. whose character and integrity were in question before they ever played a game in the " Wussy Blue. " PROUD to be a Duke fan. OFC
I believe he also accused Jenson of directing racial slurs towards him, only to retract his allegations after the national press jumped all over Jenson. Not sure why anyone would trust a guy who got 4 technical fouls over the course of back-to-back games.
He was a jewel wasn't he. Makes me proud he's a has a spot in the Tar Heel family. They cannot deny him. His name is in the record books. He has to have the record for techs over that short period of time. Even over the hot headed Wallace. Just ask any Heel fan about N'Diaye and see what kind of response you get. OFC
Shoot. I had to go out for awhile and thought I came up with the answer: each school recruited John Riek.
Nice goin', Mark. Enjoy the chicken!!!

Tie: Gary, Steat, and Tami Hansbrough.
(Can't believe I wasted my 600th post on that. I take it back).

No correct answer yet but I have mentioned him several times on the board here as stating himself as "there is no greater Tar Heel fan than @^$%&*#$. And the Obama answer is not a bad one. There's no telling how many votes he picked up b=y coming to Chapel Hill and practicing with the team back in his first run for President. OFC
OK Sky, QC Dukie answered before I got to this thread. (OK,I would have missed the answer anyway)
Lets have another please.
Lets have another please.
This question has to do with the flop. UNC nation thinks Coach K started the flop but I have posted a few times where I first saw the flop used, who started it and what team he played for. This may be a hard one but he played before many of you were born and had long floppy hair. One more clue. He is an NBA coach. OFC
Next question. During the early 90's when Mich. and the fab five came to Cameron Chris Webber dunked the ball in front of the crazies and went into celebration mode in front of the crazies. Problem was the Duke player he was guarding went on a break away dunk at the other end of the court while Webber was celebrating . Who was the Duke player. OFC
