It should be really easy to project this fall’s college football results. All we have to do is: – Assess what went right/wrong in 2008. – Subtract contributions from “graduating†players. – Add in contributions that we will see from new players. – Subtract lost contributions due to injuries. That should leave us with […]

SoCar Coach Says He Games Recruiting Rankings
Brad Lawing, the South Carolina defensive line coach and former UNC-CH recruiting coordinator, says that recruiting rankings and sites are a scam. “I can take a three-star and make him a four-star, and I can take a four-star and make him a three- or two-star with the contacts I have. That’s how ridiculous recruiting on […]
Chatting with Rivers and more ‘House Divided’ crap
I ran across a pretty low quality chat with Philip Rivers this morning. Audio only although they do flash some photos up in a slideshow type format (check out the photo with Broncos QB Jay Cutler with his head down). Let this quench our thirst for football season as we have to wait many more […]
Pack takes series from #1 Heels
NC State’s baseball team may be struggling this year and probably will not even qualify for an Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament berth…but this weekend the Wolfpack found a way to grab some ‘prideful’ wins. To keep its slim hopes alive for a bid to the ACC baseball tournament, N.C. State had to pull off the […]
Brandon Tate Doesn’t Test Positive at UNC, Tests Positive for Smoking Weed in NFL
Wide receivers Percy Harvin and Brandon Tate tested positive for marijuana during February’s NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis, two sources told FOXSports.com. Wow. All of those years in Chapel Hill and he just now starts using weed? So, Hakeem Nicks matriculates towards graduation with an intelligence barely high enough to make him intellectually functional on […]
Coping With Another Hole Title (Updated 9am Tuesday)
“Our fans are comparing ourselves to Duke and North Carolina. Every program in the country doesn’t do well when you’re compared with those two on a day-to-day basis. I understand that our fans want to be able to compete with them; we all do. But you can be real good on a daily basis and […]
How do they remain academically eligible?
Well…we can add the name of Hakeem Nicks to the ever-growing list of UNC-CH athletes who find academic matriculation at UNC-Chapel Hill significantly easier than daily tasks such as simultaneously thinking and breathing. Nicks will enter the powder blue’s ‘Pantheon of Paradox’ with a seat firmly entrenched between the likes of Kevin Madden, Rasheed Wallace, […]
NCAA Tournament Teams That Get All The Calls – Carolina, Connecticut and Chattanooga?
During our ACC Tournament viewing party, the subject came up of how much more North Carolina goes to the free throw line than their opponents. One of the excuses we had always heard was that their talent level discrepancy leads to the free throw discrepancy (and absolutely nothing to do with biased officiating…) This led us to wonder about a team like Memphis that utterly dominates Conference USA and is head and shoulders above the rest of the league, what sort of free throw advantage do they have?
Welcome to the ACC, Virginia Tech (Part II)
One of our most viewed entries of the weekend was this vibrant entry welcoming our land grant bretheren of Virginia Tech into the Atlantic Coast Conference’s landscape. We therefore send you on a quick journey to VPI’s Gobbler Country Blog to witness the evolutionary experience of a fan into the real world. I thought that […]
ACCT Open Thread – Welcome to the ACC, Virginia Tech
N&O’s Joe Giglio: UNC finished the game with 21 attempts from the free-throw line (hitting 15), while VT finished 8 of 11. It’s not like VT took a ton of 3s and the totals were skewed by shot selection. UNC and VT each took 19 3s. And don’t confuse me here, I’m not saying UNC […]
