McDonald’s All-American Game Open Thread

ESPN, 8 PM.

Reggie Bullock and Kendall Marshall on the East Team. Harrison Barnes playing for the West.

There is a danger of taking too much away from this game. After all they do not play a lick of defense and a pass first point guard like Marshall will end up looking very good in [...]

Larry Drew Denies Transfer Rumors…Again

Apparently I need to spend more time on the Inside Carolina message boards following the latest rumors. For some reason Larry Drew keeps cranking out denials of various rumors that he intends to transfer.  The latest comes on a direct question from IC’s Greg Barnes:

Larry Drew has been the subject of transfer rumors throughout [...]

One More Look At The No-Call

One of the joys of the internet is we now have online replays of controversial calls for bloggers to obsess over.  College Hoops Journal has super slow motion YouTube video of the URI’s Lamonte Ulmer tripping with seconds remaining in the game. College Hoops Journal also does a good job of making it abundantly clear [...]

Getting An Early Jump On The Rivalry

Most folks have seen this by now. DraftExpress had Harrison Barnes, Reggie Bullock and Kendall Marshall sit down with Duke recruit Kyrie Irving to discuss the rivalry.  Most of it is good natured ribbing with Bullock going as far as to say “Andre Dawkins can’t guard me.” Barnes is quick to reign in the smack [...]

UNC 68 URI 67 (OT)

Wow that was ugly and feel free to break out whatever cliche you want to hang on to here.

Better to be lucky than good…A win is a win…did not deserve to win but we’ll take it…etc, etc, etc.

It was one of the stranger games I have seen, especially involving UNC since there were [...]

UNC-URI Game Thread With Twitter

No live blog just Twitter feeds, including C.Michael who is at MSG and will be making sure URI does not steal the argyle stripe on UNC’s jersey.  Comments if you have ‘em in the usual spot.

Help Is On The Way; Davis Gone?

UNC’s trio of recruits, Harrison Barnes, Reggie Bullock and Kendall Marshall took part in McDonald’s All-American Game competitions on Monday.  All three did quite well.

Reggie Bullock and Harrison Barnes finished 2nd and 3rd in the three point shooting contest losing out to uncommitted Cory Joseph. In the skills competition Harrison Barnes and Kendall Marshall [...]

Why Duke will probably win the NCAA Tournament

And trust me, this is not something I want to be writing in any way, shape, or form.  However, the trends from the last 10 Final Fours, along with the numbers from this Final Four do not predict good things for last two days of the tournament, so at least this will give Tar Heel [...]
