In DC and married to a Georgetown alum, so watched a decent amount of McClung the past two years. A few impressions: -The dynamic between he and departed Georgetown PG James Akinjo seemed strained. They both were in the same class and were PG-sized guards with shoot-first mentalities and pretty...

Seems like you're lower on the ceiling win total than The Athletic

Nice job by Matt Fortuna going past usual surface level analysis and capturing why many of us are excited about trajectory of program. https://theathletic.com/1789573/2020/05/07/wake-forest-demon-deacons-football-schedule-roster-depth-chart-state-of-the-program/

I can't wait to get to know this guy and figuring out an appropriate nickname. And hearing anecdotes about blue hairs' discomfort. And learning about the random obscure band that he's REALLY into. And mostly being excited about Wake hoops again.

Yup. Also the fact he grew up a massive Wake fan at the height of WFU basketball successes in mid-90s is a bit of a unique variable to add to the UNC alum mix...

Per the ongoing focus on Matta, I dug up and re-read this piece from several years back from his former player Mark Titus upon Matta leaving OSU. https://www.theringer.com/2017/6/6/16041642/thad-matta-ohio-state-buckeyes-basketball-760ee88f5b2 I'm not a huge fan of Titus when he does his...

Disagree. Currie is a very good communicator and, at a moment that AD knows we'll parse everything carefully, it seems purposeful and I read optimistically re coaching change.

Say Hey, If we're lucky enough to have a new coach, consider this an early request for an update to the ACC Coaches Death Match thread of old.

Season stats now at 19.8 PPG and 9.8 RPG in fewer than 30 minutes per game (29.9) Would be first player since 1960 to hit 20/10 in under 30 MPG, though still the first to hit 19.5/9.5 with those minutes restrictions: http://bkref.com/tiny/X7uah Statistical minutiae aside, incredibly efficient...

Yup. The Vols' fanbase views on Dave Clawson should be enough of a reminder that what is a good hire and good fit for Wake doesn't match well with perceptions in TN

Another good Collins article here via Paul Flannery. And Zach Lowe tweeted out link to Flannery piece and said he had been planning on Collins piece of his own.

In fairness, the Hindenburg pilot had a good safety record, other than that major disaster...

No, he goes to Gonzaga HS (Bryant Crawford alma mater), which plays against Good Counsel (MD team that has produced Jelani Jenkins, Kendall Fuller, Stefon Diggs)

I think the reference about one class was not to the 2006 class, but to the 2004 Fresh Deacs class that featured Curry, Smith, Arnoux, Patterson, Chip Vaughn, Swank, and Jeremy Thompson.

Yeah, um, the Pats didn't err by avoiding a faux QB competition between Tom Brady and Jimmy Garappolo for the first two months of the season.

Yup. Also potentially a public "we have confidence in you" declaration from two leaders of the team for a guy who often seems to lack confidence on the court

I'd be interested in how both coaching staffs are selling Ayo on how he'd fit in their style of play. One interesting thing to note is how similar the Underwood-coached OK State team and last year's Wake teams were in their style and efficiency. Per KenPom from last season, both Wake and OK...

After his OC stint for the Vols, think that's a non-starter.

From same (small, private) DC school as incoming frosh Coby Davis
