Re: 1-AA 2.0
Do we fund all 85 scholarships as athletic scholarships and not some as academic scholarships?

Interesting Anecdote Re: Wilt Chamberlain
One Globetrotter skit involved Captain Meadowlark Lemon collapsing to the ground; instead of helping him up, Chamberlain threw him several feet into the air and caught him like a doll. Lemon, who at that time weighed 210 lb (95 kg), later said Chamberlain was "the strongest athlete who ever lived".[...

So uncc gets $25MM taxpayer money to expand a stadium they can’t even fill up with no strings attached but we can’t issue debt for an indoor facility we need. Unbelievable. UNC-C...

Re: Elon getting Charlotte law school.
High point was wildly in debt last I had heard. Their campus is pretty ridiculous. Iron fencing all the way around with a number of amenities. Lots of jersey license plates. I was at a meeting there about 2 years ago and I asked that question about debt. They stated that all the new construction wa...

Re: Wilks Fired
IMOp, they lost due to fatigue and lack of depth (among other things) in one of the few OT's in Super Bowl History.

She doesn't shoot from the 3 pt line. She shoots from beyond the 3 pt line. And her passes......!!!!
She sells out the arenas wherever she goes.

Re: Charlotte Checkers
Ownership has been the same since 2006. The Hurricanes logo has been dropped from the scoreboard and from all gear. I have no idea who owns them but they are now affiliated with the Florida Panthers of the NHL. They have had plenty of time to reinstall the perks of atmosphere they had before the pa...

Re: Charlotte Checkers
I did not think the Hurricanes owned them but was just had an affiliation agreement with the Checkers. They are over 500 for the year so far so not sucking but not doing stellar either. Last year they ended top 1/3 in AHL. Everyone's has their own definition of "sucks" but I would refer to them as ...

Charlotte Checkers
Are third from last place in the Atlantic Division. They sure have sucked since the Hurricanes sold them. Highlight was playing the out door matches.

Re: at Wake Forest
I honestly don't know. However, I can see sort of where these teams are coming from. When they beat us, they don't move up in the rankings much or if at all...in most cases, but move down or stay the same when they do lose. Carolina used to say if they played us, they'd have to play all the other NC...

Domination of any ACC program, given the resources discrepancies, is impressive. And technically our wrestling program is still Southern Conference. No need for a "technically." We are straight up members of the SoCon for wrestling. Field Hockey might could become a SB sponsored sport but I think i...
