When Shavlik Randolph declared himself eligible for the NBA draft, everyone was shocked. Some even speculated as to why he would do such a thing. Since then, a single theory has gained the most credibility, largely because it came from the

I don’t claim to be a college basketball recruiting junkie. I follow it, but not so close that I know all the players, their stats and favorite colors. I find the whole process a little creepy. That said, I do know Uche Echefu. Hard to forget a name like that. For a long time, I…

Man, I didn’t see this one coming. Duke’s

Elton Brown was one of the most unpopular basketball players in Virginia history. His whole career was an example of uninspired, selfish, lazy play. Brown has a lot of talent, at least on the offensive end, but could never seem to lay off the Ding Dongs enough to get in good shape. He’d get his…

That show literally made me angry (and of course, some college buddies loved…

Bang! Cartoons has a great take on Kellen “Soldier” Winslow’s unfortunate mishap. Very funny stuff.

I was sure Steve Robinson was gone. I mean, the Tar Heel basketball program had already lost seven players and their radio color man (Mick Mixon to the Carolina Panthers). Surely an assistant coach would jump at a shot at being a head coach elsewhere. Nope. Steve Robinson will stay at North Carolina and not…

It’s been pretty quiet at Dave Sez this week. Just doesn’t seem to be much happening of interest in the world o’ sports. At least not much stuff I’m interested in. Or maybe it’s just post-NCAA Tourney burnout. Anyway, I’m back – and with something a little different. I don’t normally post too much about…
