I ran into Roy Williams Tuesday night at our local casino, he was in town scouting a kid who plays up in Ames.

Apparently he already has a scholarship offer from UNC, Duke, Kentucky and Kansas.

very cool

alot of people dont realize the amount of hours on the road college basketball/football coaches put in

h barnes is kansas bound in my opinion.

psycho t is about to break the all time carolina scoring record. i cant believe this is his senior year. seems like only yesterday he was a freshman all american.

evansville is just mugging the shit out of him. pathetic if you ask me.

Congrats to Psycho T.

Was a nice moment he had breaking the record, glad it's over though so they can concentrate on important stuff.



Gotta like that the MVC teams just don't back down.

I dont mind playing physical and fighting hard. But it was obvious their strategy was to just assualt him and see how much they could get away with. Show some respect for the game and your opponent.

I think they did that by being cool with the stopping of the game to go over that little ceremonial shit when he got the scoring record.

I was at the game and it was pretty terrible. Evansville's strategy was pretty much mug our guys, flop like Dook, throw in a couple cheap shots, and hope they could get away with it. And the refs pretty much let them, it was probably one of the most poorly officiated games I've seen in a while. But it was awesome to see Hansbrough get the record; there was a ceremony afterwards with an emotional video tribute and remarks by Psycho T and Phil Ford. Very cool to see two of the Tar Heel greats embrace and interact.

Nice.

wow BC up by 14 with 10 mins left..........plenty of time for the heels to come back but its gonna be tough, BC is playing lights out

sweet, Pitt is about to be #1 for the first time ever.

They closed the gap but couldn't get over the hump. It's not that surprising, BC always plays them tough and Rice always has good games against them. Now they don't have to worry about the undefeated season BS.

oh well. huge game v. wake next week.

pretty cool-- Was roy gambling? He does not seem the type. Just curious---


They played well in the second half against clemson. They really need to start putting in more effort on d!

This. And this team is completely different if Wayne is on and they are playing d. If they keep playing with effort on d they will go deep in March. I think the two losses could serve as key turning points in the season.

Was shooting craps.

no way--- seriously? never would have guessed. hope you both won!

big set of games coming up

Lawson for the W... nice D there.

I'm just sad they didnt play d like that for the rest of the game. We would have won by 30. Srsly, Florida State is good at the defense and this was actually a pretty good win over a NCAA tournament team.

won't win the national title playing defense like this. havent watched them much this year, but it seems like they have gotten worse defensively since last year. ginyard being out is really showing, because green does nothing but try and block shots.

it is really annoying how after every play the duke players scream and yell and wave their arms and pronounce "LETS GO".

really really annoying.

i also had to turn the sound off. i couldnt take another minute listening to the two biggest boobs in college basketball broadcasting.

that second half was more like it.

fuck yessssss. we just straight dominated them the second half. Also bold is so true, I remember one play Lance Thomas knocked the ball out of bounds, it was our ball, and he acted like he had won the national championship. Typical Dook, all hype, ready for their annual choke down the stretch.

When Ty Lawson plays like he did in the second half UNC can not be beaten.

Coach K's post game interview was dead on.

ty lawson for acc poy.

How good is McClinton though, that kid will be a solid NBA player.

Miami is the best 15-9 team ever. Ship it.

I thought UNC would be more dominant this season. Thats twice they let Miami hang around until the end....and for whatever reason McClinton is the only Hurricane to really show up this year (more was expected of Collins, Dews, Hurdle)....so Miami is basically a one man team.

Going into this year I thought UNC was a lock for the Final Four (and 2-1 to win it all at worst) and now I can envision them getting unlucky or having an off day and getting knocked out early. I feel like they dont get the ball inside enough for whatever reason.

They might just go into another gear in a few weeks though.

read a report on rivals.com that he was at the duke/carolina game and he was wearing a duke t-shirt and that its only a matter of time before he commits to duke.

He is from Ames, he can't be that good anyway.

going to the game tomorrow, let's go heels.

just win baby. beat those devils.

GL Sirs

the good news is this missouri valley barnburner is in overtime and we're gonna miss the start of the game. oh wait, no one gives a shit about this game.

lol duke. lawson is the man.

how quickly time flies. four years come and gone for psycho t. now to go out in ultimate style.

ACC tournament time, can't wait.

Is North Carolina serious with this Bobby Frasor character? How is he a college basketball player? Did he win a contest before the game to play? I'm sure they can find anybody who's afraid to shoot the ball when they're wide open, make terrible passes, and trip over their own feet numerous times as their trying to dribble.

Edit: This is my first attempt at watching a full college game this year...a couple thoughts:

-Mix in a layup line. Both teams have gotta be in double digits in missed uncontested layups.
-Is it possible to contest a shot in the paint without fouling?
-What's the point in lining up at the ft line like that? I don't know what the stats are, but it's got to be easier to get offensive rebounds.
-When Africans (not African-Americans, but Africans) pass the ball, why does it always look like their playing hot potato?
-I only see one player with any above-average talent, that's not not hard to watch. That Douglas guy on Fla St.
-I will never understand what the advantage is for teams to start calling timeouts for 3 minutes after every time they score. Ok, to set up their defense, but if they don't come out of the TO without pressuring full-court or trap when they cross the line, what's the point?

Double Edit: So Hansborough is 3 pts short of the ACC scoring record. Does that only count ACC games, or does the NCAA tournament count, so he breaks it next week?

UNC has at least 5 guys on the team right now that will be in the NBA at some point. Hansbrough, Lawson, Green, Ellington for sure. Ginyard who is out with an injury will play on the next level as a defensive stopper with 3 point range. Plus they have a couple freshman bigs who barely play who will get there in 2-3 years. Depending on how much PT they get behind next years crop of 5 5 star recruits that are coming in.

The record for Hansbrough is career points for an ACC player, yes the tournament games will count.

Lawson didn't play, and Hansbrough ain't gon' be nothin in the League. I agree with Ginyard, I saw him play last year a little bit and liked what I saw. I'd like Ellington a lot more if he didn't have a full wind up to get his jumper off.

I don't agree that he will be nothing in the NBA. He isn't going to be an all star, but he is going to be a solid bench player who can give you 12-18 hard minutes a night and play physically against power forwards. Coach's love guys like Tyler, even at the pro level.

detroit here we come.

W00T W00000000000000000T

Good defense gameplan yesterday.

Nice to see Green getting his stroke back too.

Stephon Curry getting on 1st team all-america over Lawson is an absolute joke. Wish everyone would get off this kids nuts. Yeah he's good but that cute Davidson run two years ago was just that.....cute.

And lol at Seth Curry transferring to Duke. Have fun kid





oh and no one beats this team if they play like they did in the regional games. damn impressive. Ed Davis is a superstar. We may only have him for one more year imo. Ty Lawson is the stone cold nuts

I'm not that surprised Curry got first team over Lawson, he has to do more for his team to win than Ty does. The run with Davidson was last year though, not two years ago.

Seth Curry going to Duke doesn't make much sense, they already have so many guards he better hope a few clear out during the year he sits or PT is gonna be hard to come by.

congrats, etc.....

Looking at next years team.
