I love the idea that Roy didn't know there were fake classes, but he was concerned that most of the basketball players were clustered in one major. Why would that bother you if you didn't know of the cheating? I can hear it now - I am concerned about a cluster of athletes majoring in...

How can the NCAA say that UNC "cooperated" with this investigation. They have done everything possible to cover up, and are only cooperating after the damning information was made public. This has gone on for five years because UNC was not cooperative. I have a good source who says from the...

Malone was a good player - fun to watch. He was also selfish with the ball, was constantly given great opportunities by one of the best point guards ever, and made those around him worse by hogging the ball to get his shots. He may have played with more all-stars if they thought he was a good...

If you move under someone and make no attempt at the ball does it matter that you act like you didn't mean to. Under cutting is a flagrant foul because of the danger it involves for the fouled player (which is reinforced by how Crab fell). It is incredible that Duke would get the benefit of...

What has the ref ever reffed? I ref at the very top level a major intercollegiate sport. I am expected to be professional and unbiased. Taking pejorative action against a player because of past actions is the definition of bias. I watched the foul call on DT and saw the official with the...

One question from last night - It seems with the new rules regarding impeding dribblers, that the hard pop out on screens had been eliminated. At least our bigs have been hammered all year on it. LSU was allowed to jump out, make contact, and stop our progression around screens on several...

Can you punt in it?

That Houston team had crazy talent and a stiff for a coach. It was run and gun all the way. Tacy almost took them out with inferior talent (although we had more talent than people gave us credit for). He could coach kids up and was a great strategist who made solid adjustments in game as...

Tacy was the coach when I started watching WF games as a kid in W-S. Traveled to G-Boro to watch us win the Big Four Tournament. Loved games in the old, cold, and smoky Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Listened on the radio when Wake had Maguire and Marquette on the ropes in the NCAA with (I...

I liked the sleeves on the new uniforms. 1979 was a really fun year! With a young team this week of practice will be huge. If the most improvement happens between weeks one and two we may be able to compete at SU. Listened to the postgame on the WF App. It carries the Sirrius radio feed and...

Thanks Ranger. I will check out the GT thread. I agree that a network gives you loads of time to fill with pro--conference, pro-school items. I have seen multiple volleyball and soccer matches listed on the BIG and Pac12 networks. I believe better coverage and accessibility could drive...

I am starting to have some serious network envy. When is the ACC going to get its own network? I enjoy a wide variety of sports. There have been several games featuring ACC teams on television. They are only on the Big Ten and Pac12 networks because we are competing against teams from...

The five second call was b.s. Sure it was more than five seconds. He still has to count it - and most inbounds get longer than 5 (especially when a home time keeper makes us inbounds it twice). The foul on the B.C. drive was awful, but if you want to give a team the win you call it. I had...

There is no requirement to move your arm at all - it is just proper technique. That technique gives you backup for a call that is rarely made so you don't get phantom calls without being able to demonstrate the reason. Of course if you are bushleague and can't follow the protocol every...

The f'ing ref who has killed us against Duke and BC is from Davie County. He screws us every time he is on the court. The five second call was b.s. Sure it was more than five seconds. He still has to count it - and most inbounds get longer than 5 (especially when a home time keeper makes...
