…and then let us never speak of it again. With 24 hours to digest what actually transpired in the entire game, as well as the last 2 1/2 minutes that will go down forever in UNC-Duke lore, it is an interesting exercise to evaluate the final portion of the game possession-by-possession to really see the [...] Continue reading One More Look at the Last Two and a Half Minutes… Future Tar Heel point guard Marcus Paige was selected to play for the West in the McDonald’s All-American game becoming the latest in a long line of Tar Heel recruits to play in the game. Paige, who hails from Lin-Mar HS in Marion, Iowa is the 29th ranked player according to Scout.com but the #2 [...] Continue reading Marcus Paige Selected For McDonalds All-American Game This was an absolutely gut-wrenching loss, but I am not sure that it is anything more than that.

[...] Continue reading #5 UNC vs #10 Duke The 1998 UNC-Duke game in the Dean Dome which, like this one, was the first of the season. This game was odd in the fact UNC blew Duke out twice. They did it once through the first half and early into the second. Duke rallied to within three and UNC promptly blew the Blue Devils [...] Continue reading These Guys Were Ready to Play Duke I have been saying this since last season. Now we have proof.

Since then, UNC has twice faced a situation in which they went into halftime trailing in an (very) hostile environment. The combined score of the two halves that followed? Try 94 – 63 in [...] Continue reading UNC vs. Maryland: Beyond the Box
