States loses to Miami 79-78, once again, on a last-second tip-in. State led 76-71 with 1:31 remaining but then turned the ball over on consecutive possessions and missed the front end of a one-and-one and then a jumper in the final minute, which gave Miami the chance to win on its final possession. Which they […]

(14)Miami at (19)NC State – Game Thread
Because Zo Brown is significantly hobbled, it seems BJD95 is too depressed to even have a raging semi (live blog, that is). 😀 Thus it will be the basic game thread today folks. You know how these work. Have at it. Go Pack! – And be sure to check out the new SFN Forums if […]
Miami 44, State 37
State Miami beat State 44-37 in a game that will long live in infamy in the Hall of Fame of all-time worst performances. Short version: Despite outgaining Miami 664-651, State’s defense couldn’t stop the big play — Amerson was responsible for all six Miami TDs — and State’s offense gave the ball away six times, […]
State/Miami Game Thread
I’m too lethargic to fully live blog, but might add a few thoughts in the main body text each quarter. Hopefully there will be lively banter in the comments. This will be a good test of whether Miami might be better than generally expected, or if the Georgia Tech team Da U vanquished last week […]
Pack/Canes Game Thread
As was the Wake contest last weekend, this will be a “treadmill game” for me. I will join you in the comments for the second half, but hopefully my first half running will provide similar good luck. NC State is in a three game “house money” stretch. Well, sort of. Going 0-for-3 wouldn’t be good […]

There’s enough to this story for ESPN to make “The U: Part II” (with multiple episodes, as my buddy Shawn added). Yahoo!: The NCAA informed University of Miami administrators it will consider invoking its “willful violators†clause and make an exception to the traditional four-year statute of limitations in the Nevin Shapiro case, a university […]
Yahoo! exposes The U, Administrative Hypocrisy
If the NCAA truly wants to enact change, then it should hire Yahoo! Sports reporter Charles Robinson. For those not keeping up, Yahoo! — and more precisely, Charles Robinson, and to some extent, Dan Wetzel — has become the lead on about every college football scandal since USC-Reggie Bush. Yahoo! has fully emerged as a […]
The U Wednesday Webrun
Money, bounties, cars, yachts, jewelry, TVs, meals, nightclubs, sex parties, prostitutes and even an abortion. Yeah, Miami may be in some trouble. No suspensions by Al Golden…yet (ESPN). Of course, how else can he react right now? Heather Dinich says former Miami officials have questions to answer (ESPN): And yet the only person answering questions […]
NCAA Investigating Miami Football (Tuesday Update)
…don’t you remember how Butch Davis cleaned up The U? Georgia Tech has been busted twice in the last decade by the NCAA. UNC-CHeats is currently entangled in perhaps the worst NCAA scandal since SMU received the death penalty in 1987. Now, Miami is getting sucked back into the NCAA’s vortex – click here Great […]
The ACC’s best combined coaching 1-2 punch
September 9th, 9:15 pm: This entry originally posted earlier in the week, but got buried in the UNC scandal coverage. We’re going to bring it back to the top of the blog since we are getting so much traffic from various ACC blogs today. Please don’t miss out on the other big entries we’ve got […]
