ACC To Start Using Injury Reports

I find this rather ironic given the big to do we had during the basketball season about the release of injury information.  Apparently the ACC has decided to adopt something akin to what the NFL does for football season:

Odds and Ends: eBay Edition

I occassionaly use the Odd and Ends post to cover a few stories I want to comment on but do not feel like doing my Tolstoy imitation is breaking down.  I realized last week it makes a nice “close out the week” feel to it I think I will make it a weekly occurrence. That [...]

Roy Talks With Andy Katz

I am actually surprised at the frequency of articles we are still getting about basketball.  The first meaningful game is four months away and the media keeps pumping out articles such as this one about the 2008-09 Tar Heels.  Granted there is still some level of housekeeping going on concerning the active spring/early summer.  It [...]

U.S. U18 Moves To Gold Medal Game

The U.S. knocks off Canada.  The Wear Twins and Leslie McDonald were fairly non-existent.  T. Wear only had one point and five rebounds in 13 minutes.  He also ended up with five fouls which might explain his limited actions.  D. Wear had six points and four rebounds.  McDonald has two points.

Next up for the [...]

The Importance Of Reading The Whole Box Score

Luciana Chavez went through the trouble of posting this little tidbit about Duke 2009 recruit Mason Plumlee who is playing in the US U18 team in Argentinia:

Mason Plumlee, a 2009 Duke recruit, seems to like international competition.

Plumlee tallied the only double-double with 14 points and 14 boards — FYI big guy, [...]
