About this time last year, I was thinking of an article I could write on the upcoming ACC Tournament. I had just started my site a few weeks earlier, so anything I wrote would be critically analyzed by nearly a dozen readers. The only think I could think to write about was Randolph Childress’ amazing…

What year is this? Where am I? StateFans Nation alerted me today to a rumor that I had completely missed (haven’t been to any team message boards this week) – Rick Barnes will leave Texas at the end of the season and become Virginia’s next coach.

It was supposed to be the night when Tar Heels and Blue Devils joined hands. From what I read in the paper, Carolina fans (and players) everywhere would be cheering as hard they could for their beloved Dukies to knock off Wake Forest last night. You see, Carolina and Wake were tied at the top…

I’ll be out of town this weekend until Monday evening, so this is it for me for a few days. Talk amongst yourselves. I’ll give you a topic – Is Julius Hodge the best bad player ever or the worst good player ever? Discuss.

For the past several days, I’ve been having a debate with JB34 in the Sports Shack over the RPI and what it means for NC State at this point in the season. It turns out that JB34 is also a writer at StateFansNation.com and today he wrote an article further expounding on his opinions on…

And in between, some little conference road game against a lower-tier team. Nothing to worry about right? Wrong. Seemingly in an attempt…

I never meant to turn this into the Virginia Bowl Blog, but damn if this story doesn’t keep changing. I hate to post stuff that’s inaccurate, so since I said it looked like UVA was going to the Independence Bowl, I feel I need to correct it. Last night, UVA announced that they had accepted…

There has been a long running (but friendly – mostly) feud between me and a couple of my former coworkers. You see, they are both Big East fans, Syracuse fans, to be exact. When we worked together, we used to get into frequent ACC vs. Big East arguments. Obviously, I (and all the other ACC…

Good luck to the people in Florida. I don’t envy you at all right now. I remember a very long night in my house about five years ago when Hurricane Fran came through Raleigh. That was barely a Category 1 by the time it got to us. I can’t imagine riding out a Category 4.…

”Yoni over at College Basketball wrote a little blurb a while back about the new contract that Coach Jimmy Collins got from Illinois-Chicago. There’s nothing too exciting about what Yoni wrote or the article he linked to. A good small-school coach got an extension. To me though, it brought back an old memory. [cue wavy…
