That’s what I am hearing as well! Go Deacs!

UCLA of the East!!

It was commonly observed that the ideal coach would be a combination of Lefty Driesell’s recruiting and Carl Tacy’s in-game coaching. The inverse would’ve been horrifying!

There will be!

Another contributing factor, in addition to the recruiting disappointments, was that Kenny Green was not returning for his senior year and we just were not going to be very good. All of those issues contributed to the timing of the decision.

I have been able to confirm that RJ was indeed told that a reliable source with knowledge of the contract and the negotiations said the buyout info was inaccurate and fabricated. RJ accurately and truthfully relayed this information. To that extent, he is exactly right. In the spirit of full...

If you guys really want this thing settled, I volunteer to be the credible source confirming or disputing RJ’s info upon review of his sources and whatever they said. My impression was that the buyout numbers were legit, plus I believe RJ trusts me. Everyone should agree to the terms and...

We were possibly one admissions exception away from a Final Four in 1970 and/or 1971. Artis Gilmore wanted to come to Wake after two years at Gardner-Webb but WF would not accept him. Instead, he ended up at Jacksonville University where he led JU to the NCAA championship game in 1970 and led...

IMO the greatest guard ever to play for WF. Incredible scorer. Would have been amazing to see what he would have done with a three-point line. To top it off, he is a first-class individual.

If there is a schism between coaches and schools, you can expect players to be loyal to the coaches who recruited them and for whom they played, not the schools. Period. That is the reality, for a lot of reasons including several mentioned above. Fans’ perspectives and players’ perspectives are...

So far as I know, neither Sarr nor Ody are in the portal, at least not yet. Wouldn’t read too much into that, but I did find it interesting. Love what is Zeke is doing!!

I have not spoken to him since this whole thing went down, and I don’t like speculating on what other people are thinking. However, I know that for years he and DM were not on the same page. During the summers when Chill was leading the team while DM was away, it was not unheard of for him to...

There are rumblings that Chill has expressed a lot of frustration and anger at Currie and the situation in general. Take that for what you will. If Chill is serious about coaching, he needs to go out and find a job somewhere else. If not, I’m sure they will find him a job in fundraising or...

Yes he is

The buyout issue is now in the hands of the attorneys. As originally reported last week, once it became obvious that DM would not negotiate the ridiculous buyout clause given to him by RW and was intent on retaining his job as our HC, he was notified that he would be relieved of his...
