A benevolent and loving Satan wouldn't let this happen.

Seriously. You know Satan was pretty pumped for all the good folks of Kansas City finally getting a World Series, 'cause it meant people would be out having a good time with loved ones, drinking, having good food, enjoying life. If it was up to Satan, we would get a turn to kick the football one of these days.

So since he is choosing duke, what is it gonna be like for Giles when Duke plays here in Winston? He will not be liked, it is personal
 
I hate them with every fiber of being, but outside of my own sentimentality, duke is objectionably better than us by ever measure that possibly matters. Hopefully they won't always be, but for now, them's the breaks.

Here's what I don't understand, what does he really gain going to Duke? Giles is going to be a one and done high draft pick whether he comes here or Puke. If he goes to Puke he the man one year and then they're on to somebody else, come here and he's a legend for life and it's not like our program can't produce NBA stars. Mike Greenberg on ESPN was making a great argument yesterday that Timmy D. could be on the Mt. Rushmore of all-time NBA players. To me if it's true his "heart" was with Wake, he's just a sell-out to go to Puke.

There will likely be more duke fans in attendance, and he will receive at least a lukewarm ovation. :sick:

He is competitive and thinks it would be fun to compete for an NCAA championship. Plus his boy Tatum goes there.

It's pretty simple: he has a way better chance to win a title there

Yeah, but you know Parker is already a forgotten man in Durham, like he was hardly there and Giles will be too after he's done. Oh well, it's his decision and we'll move on I guess. Danny will get us the big-time that has the heart to go against the grain though eventually.
 
On the bright side, we aren't going to experience Giles committing to Wake and either (a) he gets hurt like 4 games into the season and never plays another minute for the Deacs or (b) he plays, but we still lose as a 5-seed in the NCAAT to like Utah State, then he leaves, we get no lasting recruiting bump, and it was basically like one of those dreams where you wake up and instantly forget it.

You don't think that the 4 years of [Redacted] effectively killed our program?
