First off: The #1, #2, #3 way to get into the NCAA tournament is to WIN GAMES. Everybody (hopefully) gets that. The point of this is not to make excuses, but to recognize reality. Second: George David Odom was really good at manipulating the RPI under the old system - that's why we played games...

Nice article about our AD https://magazine.wfu.edu/2023/01/27/hes-everywhere-and-home/

WF men kicked ass today in Charlottesville and backed up the preseason prediction of winning the conference - winning the ACC for the first time since 1994 6 ACC squads (ND, WF, NCSU, UVA, Cuse, uNC) are ranked in the top 20 nationally so this was a strong field Two-time AA Zach Facioni was...

The imbalance between the divisions is obvious. So far this year, the Atlantic is 4-1 against the Coastal, with BC falling to not quite as horrid VT. Here's how the Sagarin Predictor ratings view the remaining 9 Atlantic v Coastal games: 27-Oct Virginia Tech @ NC State -19 29-Oct Georgia...

The 3-point shot was introduced in 1986-87. (there was a one-year trial of the shorter distance). Since then, here are the top 5 seasons before this season in terms of team 2-point shooting percentage: 1. 2008-2009 53.6% JJ/Aminu/Teague/Ish 2. 2004-2005 53.4% CP3 final season 3. 2001-2002...

Had a long conference call and put it to good use by looking at where LaRavia & ManMan rank among great Deac duos of the past 30 years. Paired together a big man with a ball handler for each team. To qualify, players had to play together at least one year - but I am taking peak production from...

Edited to note hold released. Originally held along with: Clemson at Louisville NC State at Florida State

With recent ODU (gag) and UConn (gag) and Georgia St (meh) announcements, here are the upcoming WF OOC football schedules as compiled here. I see a decent home game on the schedule in 2024, 2027, and 2028. Other than that, a whole lot of meh: 2024: 08/31 - North Carolina A&T 09/14 - Ole Miss...

I have very little experience buying/selling used cars - my life experience has been to buy new cars and drive them forever. Right now, with my son graduating college, we are potentially selling a used car with a decent Kelley Blue Book value (KBB says it's worth $11k), and helping him purchase...

In 1998 Odom was rumored to be interested in a young German player - but then everyone else including Don and Donnie Nelson started paying attention and the rest is history Odom did land another Euro named Songaila (he talks about Dirk in here)...

during the 1965-66 season, Billy Jones of Maryland became the first African-American player in ACC basketball history Obviously this was an important step in the modernization of ACC basketball Since that year, the worst 9-year ACC winning percentage belongs to: Wake Forest, 2010-11 through...

if the following results happen: 1. Deacs lose out at Duke and vs. FSU (more on that in a minute*); 2. Miami wins at home vs. Pitt; 3. GT does not win both of its remaining games (tonight vs. BC and midweek at NCSU) 4. Notre Dame does not win out (vs. Clemson, at Pitt) then WF-GT will face off...

Another thread got me wondering how WF basketball's recent run of regular season conference play compares to the worst in the history of the conference. Since the season that ended in 1974, two programs have managed to have a 10-year conference winning percentage of lower than .300: BC through...

Our high tempo RPO means lots of plays for both the offense and the defense. That’s the plan. In actuality what it has meant is that we are killing our defense. Note: our defense is bad from the start. But playing more plays, and having a 43 second 3 and out lead to more possessions per game...
