if you won the lottery? What if it were the $300 million Mega Millions lottery? Well Eagle in Atlanta knows what he would do (and he bought a ticket to make his dream come true) – he’d go all SEC on the Boston College football program. Cheat, cheat, cheat his way to titles galore. Gotta…

Former Duke basketball player Robert Brickey is now the new basketball coach at Shaw University. I really liked Brickey as a player mainly because the dude could jump out of the gym. He wasn’t the greatest player, but man I loved to watch him get up. It’s interesting that he’s gotten into coaching and seems…

The News & Observer had a nice article yesterday about UNC’s ridiculously good recruiting class for next year. Better get your kicks in this year, because they won’t be down for long. As a very interesting addendum to this story, they also ran brief listings of Bob Gibbon’s best recruiting classes ever including details about…

It’s been a little while since I’ve posted about football, huh? That’s what happens when the sneakers start squeaking the round balls start bouncing. I get distracted. Or at least, that’s my excuse. I have two weeks worth of thoughts to dump here, so I’ll probably miss some stuff. The big event in the ACC…

A couple of weeks ago I posted about the controversy swirling around Fisher DeBerry’s comments about black and white athletes. At the end of the article I questioned if that sensitivity is really productive. And now I found out about this. Sigh. Again I ask, is this what we want as a society? Do we…

Wow. This is something you don’t see everyday – a well-respected national columnist savaging the head coach of a major athletic program. CBS Sportsline’s Gregg Doyel goes off on Jim Calhoun in this article, saying without reservation that Calhoun is a man of low integrity who plays dirty. Let me give you a taste: Connecticut…

It’s time for the fourth episode of Name That Site! If you aren’t sure what that is, check out the previous versions (one, two, three). The gist of is it that I’m posting a picture from Google Earth below. You get to guess what building/stadium it is and explain (if it isn’t obvious) what ACC…

You know I like me some Chris Chase. He’s a funny guy. It turns out that he’s pretty well-read too. Or maybe he just knows the titles. Either way, he had a great gimick for his NFL rankings this week – great works of literature. Funny and smart! Who says that blogs are just a…

I’m gonna catch yo (and my) ass up on hoops reading. First stop, the Duke Basketball Report. I’ve said it before, but they do a great job of following the whole ACC. If you could read only one site for ACC basketball coverage (and if you could put aside your Duke hatred), this would be…

Football is great. I love it. It’s a great game and it comes at a great time of the year, just about when I’m positively sick of baseball highlights on ESPN. But basketball is even better, especially here in ACC country. College hoops rules. I’m way behind on my links to basketball articles. There have…
