For anyone looking to move their contributions from the Deacon Club to a more worthy cause, I have your outlet. Delta Streets Academy is a school for at risk young men of the Mississippi Delta. We are in our 7th year of existence and currently have around 65 young men, 7th - 12th grade. We...

I know this is probably a fool's errand, but I would love to have a formative and balanced discussion on our immigration policies that don't demonize opposing positions. I don't know how many of you subscribe to the Wall Street Journal, but there is an excellent article discussing the issue, in...

Virginia is maddeningly good at defense, so I don't expect a pretty game for us, but other than at Duke, we have been in every game we have played this year going into the last 3-5 minutes. Perhaps this is a game we put it all together and pull out an upset. Go Deacs.

This was my first game to watch from start to finish. I missed a few plays as I finished up homework with my 7 year old, but caught almost the whole game. 1. We turn the ball over way too much. Crawford and Woods looked especially shaky with the ball at times considering they are both...

Added for 17-18? BSD just put it out there.

Despite the vitriol that can sometimes consume this board, I honestly believe that in a bar with a beer in our hands we would probably get along and be much more similar than we might want to admit. With some trepidation I am going to post a link to an article about an academy that I am heavily...

Have to be a subscriber to read, but thought I would post anyway as many of you I am sure read the WSJ. https://www.wsj.com/articles/an-anti-koch-meltdown-at-wake-forest-1491521075

Now that the Deacs have been knocked out of the ACC tourney it is time to start a new thread for our next tournament, the NCAA Tournament. Rest up, heal up, and be ready to drop bombs in the first round. My prediction: #10 seed. Go Deacs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Surprised this hasn't been posted. 20 killed and many injured in attack on restaurant. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2016/07/02/bangladesh-hostage-standoff-dhaka-rescue-mission-terrorist-attack/86630932/ Most likely a response to an offensive video. Sent from my iPhone using...

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/08/opinion/sunday/a-confession-of-liberal-intolerance.html?smid=fb-share Pretty fascinating article. Probably won't be received well, but thought I would share.

http://www.al.com/news/index.ssf/2015/09/bill_to_eliminate_marriage_lic.html If I am reading this correctly, Alabama is getting out of marriage game. This is pretty much what I have been advocating for sometime. It's almost hard for me to believe that Alabama is close to doing this. Let the...

I didn't see the whole game last night, but caught most of the second half and some of the first half. I am sure I missed out out on some analysis so interested to hear other thoughts. 1. Doral Moore and Collins are going to be very good players for us. They compliment each other well, and I...

Sort of a Wake topic. Love to see schools get hit hard with this sort of stuff. Waiting patiently for the day UNC is hit with hammer-time. https://missouri.n.rivals.com/news/mizzou-announces-ncaa-infractions-in-basketball

Finally got a chance to watch a game live. Have been forced to watch the day after for most games this year due to work. 1. For the most part a well played game by the Deacs. We had some mental lapses (especially the 5 minute stretch in the second half) but that happens when you play talented...

Just finished watching on TiVo. I have been too busy to watch anything live lately and so I usually don't get to the games until the next day. Hence no post game threads so far. 1. We defend the dribble drive about as poorly as I could possibly imagine. We don't defend over the top. We don't...

After exiting this board primarily because of the toxicity it was creating in my own heart, I apologize for the harsh tone that I set on this thread. Seeing the recent leak on the Supreme Court deliberations re: Abortion reminded me of this error, and I apologize. Hopefully any debate here...

I didn't see a thread on this, so forgive me if I missed it. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/ncaa-committee-calls-switch-30-second-shot-clock-181917108--ncaab.html Still has to reach final approval, but I think it will. I personally feel it is a good move, but would want to leave it at 30...

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/02/17/texas-governor-abbott-obama-amnesty-executive-order/23536579/ Does this have any legs? Admin is going to appeal immediately. Would love to hear some law specific responses (IE: I pretty much know the political responses of the board). Will the...

1. Manning has transformed our pick and roll defense. Our fundamentals are so much better. Our communication is better, especially between bigs. We aren't chasing windmills out there. The standard pick and roll play at the top of the key involves a big on the elbow, and a big on the post...

1. CMM and Devin both played incredible ball games. I give both of these guys a hard time some of the time, but yesterdays game was incredible. The difference in coaching between last year and this year is so plainly evident. I don't think either player forced a play the entire game. Both...
