Why is it that Creepy Crean is allowed to roam 3-5 feet out onto the court EVERY PLAY, including leaning over the ref's back while the play is passing within a foot of the two of them, with no apparent penalty?
Drives me nuts.
Early on, Carolina looks awfully average... which lends credence to the rumors that were circulating after the closed scrimmage with the Hoyas.

I really wish they would enforce that rule on coaches. Tons of them do it and it's annoying and dangerous. You should get one warning and then the next time should be a technical.

Zeller has had 4 run out break away scores so far. UNC's transition defense is terrible. half of them have been off of made UNC baskets.

wow that really got out of hand fast. I mean that really escalated quickly. Our performance last week all of a sudden looks a lot better. Can Roy Williams coach? I mean, when he doesn't have a starting lineup full of NBA players or Tyler Hansbrough willing the team to victory, his teams can look really bad. |

Depaul defeat fairfield 85-78
I think it's safe to call the rest of the B10-ACC games
Indiana, Nebraska, and Maryland will win.
b10 up 4-2. Just need to go 3-3 tomorrow to win the challenge.

Indiana is doing this all with zero contribution from arguably their 2nd best player Watford. I know Carolina isn't "Carolina" this year, but Indiana is playing like the best team in the country tonight. I'd love to see the Hoyas get another crack at them....preferably early April in Atlanta.

I mean, when he doesn't have a starting lineup full of NBA players or Tyler Hansbrough willing the team to victory, his teams can look really bad. ^I was wondering this too while watching the game. To me Roy called his timeout way too late into the Indiana run for it to be any use in stopping their momentum. |

Nothing was stopping Indiana's momentum tonight. That was a dominant second half. They are deserving of the #1 ranking. And our showing against them is proving to be an outstanding result.

Did everyone hear Vitale remarks that Georgetown had better athletes (starting) than North Carolina therefore, paraphrasing, that Georgetown gave Indiana a more severe challenge. Now Vitale is prone to hyperbole, but when was the last time that you have heard something like that. I know NC lost three starters to the NBA, but the Hoyas lost three starters to graduation. I would argue that the three Hoya starters contributed much more last year than the NC lost starters. The Hoyas may not be getting the marque players every year, but they are still getting good players. Vitale also mentioned during the IU/GU game that the Hoyas had a commitment from Cameron, in his words a great shooter. JT3 and staff are doing a great job given the facility handicap of finding great players and coaching them into his system. Now lets just hope Bradley and Moses will be ready to produce by BE time.

Duke/OSU as part of the challenge tonight. No one can criticize the Dookies' schedule thus far.

We lost a lot in JC, Henry, and Hollis, but UNC lost Barnes, Zeller, Henson, and Marshall, all first round picks. We just had guys who are more ready to step in than UNC did. Porter is better than anyone on UNC and Whittington is comparable in value to anyone they have, IMO.
McAdoo looked awful last night.
