I miss the old days as much as anyone, but the tournament is still a lot of fun. I skipped it for 5 years in a row before going back the last 2 years. Friday isn't quite as good (although the pairings are shaping up pretty well this week, particularly if Pitt and NCSU win on Thursday), but...

No discussion of Wake era Amy Sherrill is complete without a reference to her on Draft Night in Charlotte. She wore out a silver dress, and her stock increased more from that than anything she did at Wake for four years.

Very interesting on Franklin. It says something that Franklin and Mark Stoops think that they can win in the SEC. Probably not only promises of new facilities, but also continued hope that the league will remain soft at the bottom and at least not killer in the middle. Vandy won 8 this year...

Free tickets and Dollar Dogs. That's about where we are right now. At least the toy drive is a good cause. I'm not pro-Buzz or pro-Wellman at this point, but Wellman's job is beyond safe with Hatch and BOT, and Wellman is not firing Buzz this year. There are zero signs that Wellman's support...

I think we've hosted 4 times. The first was maybe 1993. Then 1997, 2000, and 2007 as UNCABO said.

Dinich was spot on in her blog post on this today (even if not her original thoughts). Very important that the Complaint represents the entire league and was agreed to by even the presidents that would theoretically be interested in leaving. Per the blog, the suit was also blessed informally...

State fans will lose it if they hire Lembo. Debbie Yow may hit a homerun, but I wouldn't put it past her to complete botch this thing like she almost did the bball search until she lucked up in the 11th hour.

Former Panther Mike Minter announced today as the new coach at Campbell. He was on Turner Gill's Liberty staff that we saw way too much of in the season opener. (FYI - Campbell is an FCS non-scholarship program that plays in the Pioneer League with Davidson, Butler, Valpo, San Diego, etc.)

Yep. That's how bad the ACC is right now. Wins over BC, MD, UVA, and Wake this year should barely even count. Our team could be 7-5, but we could also easily be 2-9.

Vandy is doing what we did during the height of the Grobe era. They are beating the teams they should beat and playing the role of aggressive upstart. They are also about to start getting some coaches fired, starting with Dooley. This Vandy team is solid, but what's surprising is that they...

One change in #2 is that the current floor has "WAKE FOREST" at both ends. Adding "DEMON DEACONS" back would be nice.

It's real. I think the problem people have had confirming or verifying is that since it was shared only with the DC board, it was likely intended to remain confidential (such that none of the recipients wanted to admit to sharing it). From what I understand, it is standard policy for DC board...

I don't care if Henson comes back. McAdoo is going to be way better if he isn't already. Marshall is really what matters. Kansas lost 4 starters from last year and 2 incoming freshmen and goes to Final Four.

The potential DT eligibility issue is discussed in this thread on page 13 (or posts 245-252 for those with different configuration). There is still time, so hopefully even if it is true now everything will work out. For those citing McKie info, any guesses as to how long that will take to get...

So, a quick summary of what I have read/heard on this thread and elsewhere . . . (1) The letter is apparently real; (2) Rumor that Travis playing in 2012-13 is not a done deal; (3) Battle may still be leaving; and (4) At least one of our incoming recruits may not qualify. Did I miss any other...
