McLeansville - "I know Everts was disliked by many but I do worry not so much about the academics/athletics as much as the political headwinds in Raleigh and what WCU and ECU went through a few years ago. If my memory is correct there was a lot of political movements going on and that is not going t...

Best team money can buy.

Can’t argue with that!

Not sure I agree with that - last year #1 preseason, don't even make the tournament - this year a #1 seed, can't get past the Sweet 16.
Now if it were my money I would demand better results than this

They did - and it didn't -

Who are the APP baseball announcers on ESPN+ ?

Matt Present does PBP. He has experience calling minor league games in Florida at the AAA level. He’s also the radio guy for men’s basketball.

Thanks ---

The PBP guy is really good -

ECU has 9 in the portal

Has their coach publicly announced that he is coming back?

I think it happened at Kentucky/Calipari - I know Jim Larranaga announced he would be back - could be a few others
But I am with you that an announcement to fans isn't mandatory

Edey will be a 1st round pick -

Guess Strothers chose to be close to home as he played HS ball in Newport News

"Based on the fact that Kerns is still the coach and the mass exodus didn’t spawn a change at the top, I am pretty confident in saying that there was anything underlying within the program." I think the answer will come with whether or not some good players commit because I would think the player an...

Of course it would depend on the amount of $ offered but I tend toward take the money

How do you think Burns will do offensively against 7-4 Edey

Nineteen of the 40 starters in the elite 8 began their careers somewhere other than the team they started for this weekend.

Did anyone other than Duke have all original starters?

Look at UNC last night in the 2nd half - 2 Roy recruits (Bacot & Davis), transfers - Ryan 7 years in college - Ingram - 3 years - Withers - 4 years and Wojack - grad from Brown --- Hubert's recruits on the bench - Hole fans are livid - funny as hell --- Hubert has won the games he won over 3 years ...

Setting the pissing contest aside: who on scholarship is not in the portal?

Rek and Bamboo

I have absolutely NO inside/outside/anyside information but I just have a gut feeling that with almost the entire team in the portal something is going on there to cause this exodus - something other than "greed" is causing some of these departures -

"Several years ago, Coach K developed the “one & done” recruiting mode to get the best talent. Perhaps in order to get the best talent we’re moving into a “one or two & done” recruiting mode." Not that it makes any difference whatsoever - it wasn't Coach K who developed the one and done - He hated i...

I think to survive this environment we must take each season as a separate entity. Nobody knows what is in store a year from now. It was a fantastic basketball season and getting to see most all games on ESPN+ was a blessing. The football season ended on a high note. I enjoyed watching every game. I...
