Does "the teams we are playing are better than us" count as an excuse?

Since Mack Brown left for Texas, how many UNC head coaches have left for better jobs? And by better jobs, I mean P5 with football history. Seems like a lot of coaches have gone there and haulted their ascension in the coaching ladder. You could argue that Sat is better, but UNC is a basketball scho...

Satt gave a strong hint in a recent interview that he may have turned down a P5 job to stay in Boone. He said, paraphrasing " three of our coaches turned down P5 offers this year because they like what we are doing here." Was he one of them? We do not know. But he does love Boone and his son is sta...

Also, to answer your actual question - besides all the normal secondary sites, this board has a ticket exchange that typically has people selling for any home game. But all the normal secondary market sites are good options too.

You can generally get better seats on the East side. (The lower half of the West side is student seating.) But definitely heed Daphne's words about sun vs. shade. If cold weather is a deterrent, I'd avoid anything later than the Oct. 20 game (ideally one of the three September home games). If you wa...

Looks like it was a packed house. How did y'all like it? Good food? Nice space? Enough contact with / access to athletics folks / coaches? Food was fine; coaches, staff and athletes were plenty accessible. I wouldn't say the bank was an ideal venue. Limited seating and table space. It was a good cr...

Yep. Interested to see how this venue works out.

I didn't know Coach Woody either but it is my understanding his style of management was very "inclusive." That is a good thing for transition and consistency. I love the confidence of a DC saying this will be our best unit ever but if we achieve that coming off the turnover we have to replace in th...

Heard from a defensive coach that this will be the best defensive team we have ever had... that is pretty exciting to think about. He Also said he thought Thomas be be fine. He took what the defense was giving him, made smart decisions and if nothing was open, he could tuck it and run. Hopefully if...

Live by the 3, die by the 3. Ask the Houston Rockets.

Or die because your all-star point guard went down with an injury and missed the last two games of the series after you had the best record in the league and built a 3-2 lead against an all-time superteam.

:roll: I like Brown a lot and thought he’d have a real chance to win the job. Sounds like Thomas really stepped up and separated himself from the group before much of a competition ever really developed. My impression is that Satt is pretty confident in him. Now right tackle might be a different st...

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the overachievers tend to come from outside the P5. The recruiting services just don’t spend nearly the resources evaluating prospects at our level, so the recruiting rankings naturally aren’t as accurate. That and I imagine coaching plays a bigger role when nob...

Sounds like Thomas has it locked up barring something dramatic.

I feel like just having the ticket for that bet would be a worthwhile purchase for say, $5.

If you're going to learn bag-dropping skills, might as well learn from the best.

I'm neither a Duke, nor an ACC fan but I don't really see how Kansas winning is a big surprise....especially this year. Kansas is proud of their use of the "one and done" rule, and currently includes a player who had previously committed to App. This wasn't even one of Duke's stronger teams and the...

20 wins, at or near the top of the league. It's time.
