you gotta remember paulus and mcroberts are only sophmores and they are both good players at this point. they still have 2 years for improvement. just because all these nba players and tyler are soo good at young ages people expect too much of freshmen and sophmores.

^^ decent article, haha yeah right.sounded like a whiny student. He made excuses for why Hansblow shouldn't have been in the game and then rounded out with this winner: "He had to foul Hansbrough to prevent him from scoring". Give me a break.

(btw I dont like Duke or UNC)So for people saying "Coach K has too many All Americans to have this shitty 22-9 year"obviously his record means we expect Duke to be great...thats fineBut how did UNC do last year after they lost their stars? They didnt do great...they lost their big men (May, Felton, McCants, etc) and basically had a rebuilding season...still got to the NCAA tourney but didnt do awesomeWell Duke lost Shelden and Redick...both ACC All 1st Team last year...not exactly losing scrubs...and they are 22-9 in this rebuilding yearwhat seems so out of the ordinary? no program wins 30 games a year every year^good point...if you go by the rule book, Hansbrough's "oh shit he outrebounded me, I am mad, I will throw a punch" move should have gotten him suspended one gamecourse if the elbow to hansbrough hadnt drawn blood we wouldnt even be talking about tis[Edited on March 6, 2007 at 3:40 PM.

And we said the same shit about UNC last year... though they weren't as highly rated preseason as Duke was this year at all. No one is talking about UNC and how they underperformed in this thread (there have been like 12 others so far this year about that very topic) so I don't know why you have been so adamant to bring that up in every post today..

If Duke gets Patterson which is likely, they will have without a doubt the #1 class. Also im talkin recruiting and not how they pan out in college like i said before. I mean great example Randolph he came in as one of the top players and tanked but that still doesnt mean the recruiting is down because he did not pan out. Im just arguing against the idea that someone said Dukes recruiting is down.

There is intent in all 3 sections of the rule. Deciding if there was an attempt to hit someone is completely intent driven. There was a T because they can't reverse the call once they made it. Once they looked at the tape they decided that it wasn't serious enough to eject/suspend him.I think Hansbrough is a pain in the ass to play against and believe me I don't blame people for wanting to punch him in the nose but I'm not going to sit here and say things I don't believe...My personal speculation is that neither Hansbrough or Henderson intentionally tried to hit another player. Henderson was ejected because of the overly physical contact, nothing more. I'm fine with that decision. If Hansbrough had made contact with Costner, even incidental if he was pissed at himself, I'd be fine with him being ejected/suspended (actually I'd be more than fine.. I would expect it). If he wanted to hit Costner he would have is the way I look at that incident..[Edited on March 6, 2007 at 4:09 PM. Reason : x]

How does one 'bleed like a bitch?' Are you saying you wouldn't bleed if you got drilled with an elbow full force right in the nose? I must be a bitch too because when I got elbowed in the nose playing bball a few weeks ago I bled a bit..As far as scoring late. I don't have a problem with it. Duke does it all the time too and I don't have a problem with it then either. This isn't fucking peewee. If you don't like them scoring, then box out on FTs and play some D. Duke was still fouling when UNC was trying to run the clock out the previous possession so why should the other team stop..Oh and Fuck the Phillies.

Duke students are morons, they have no idea when it comes to sports in general, let alone basketball. Most of them aren't aware of collegiate sports in the first place before they enroll. Also, keep adding to the fuel all you media outlets by recounting the incidents that Hansbrough got a raw deal/ Henderson was just playing hard, only means Hansblow will get EVERY call in Tampa, idiots, all of them. My favorite is when Duke students bring up the shot by Jeff Capel in 95 as if that shot won the game, I've corrected several young Duke fans (under 30) about this to their dismay, that highlight by ESPN of the shot in 95 embarasses mroe Duke fans than anything.[Edited on March 6, 2007 at 4:32 PM.

you're right, like whenever we see an article about NC State and they call us UNC in the midwest, there are never any angry threads to get started on that , sure aren't too many two way streets in sports talk. I'll start using Georgia and Georgia Tech interchangeably and every other school and I'm sure it will be crystal clear. For all I knew from the posts the guy makes, he may have actually believed UVA was the football school in the state of Virginia.

You win, I hate Duke and UNC like every other student here, but when you use blatant mistruths to aid your hatred, it doesn't look good to people who are not state fans (which believe it or not, there are some that exist).
3/6/2007 5:07:10 PM
well you conceded half of my points based on misunderstanding, ie "big men" etc...which is finebut YOU misread virginia tech as virginia, not mei think you're just upset that UNC is underperforming so much this year since you have a "I love the Tarheels" tattoo on your buttcheekbut seriously...all i was saying is that K and Roy are in the same boat...they both have 20+ wins and single digit losses...neither of them really recruit anything OTHER than all americans...and just because UNC lost 7 players you act like any of them INDIVIDUALLY was as important individually as Redick or Shelden? Shit, Duke lost Dockery, Redick, Williams....UNC lost Felton, May, McCants, Jawad, Marvin...feel free to name the other players if you think they were so important

Oh now I got it, you think I like UNC....I gotcha, well let me explain in all seriousness. Did I talk smack after we beat UNC this season to my UNC friends, absolutely not (except for my UNC friend that called me because he goes to APP and said we got lucky) because they have laid the wood to us over the previous 6 times they played us. If being 1-7 over our last 8 contests makes you feel the need to gloat, have at it, I shoot for slightly higher percentages. They also have a pretty good history, while ours is substantial compared to 90% of NCAA programs, we don't compare with UNC's, sorry to bring this up. I'm more interested in being a stable fan of my school without blurting out ridiculous diatribes full of inaccurate statments simply because "I hate UNC soooooooo much." Same principle with Duke. If we beat them in basketball, I don't paint the town red, I say "bout time" and celebrate a little more modestly. Rushing the court when you beat these teams is the biggest subconscious compliment you can give them. I pray one day teams will rush the court when we play on the road, woudln't that be good?Just curious, when Gminski delivered his opinions about our program a few years ago, did it make you screaming mad???

3/6/2007 5:46:22 PM
Excellent, you sidestepped my entire post (and pretty much all of my points, especially with jaded opinions based off your hatred of two teams, certainly not based on any factual relevance) until the afrementioned "altogether different argument." And do you understand the difference between RETURNING players and players being BROUGHT in as true frosh. Now, hindsight is 20/20, but back then I'd much rather have McRoberts, Paulus, and Nelson RETURNING for Duke in 06-07 (the year after their personell losses) rather than have Hansblow, Green, Ginyard, Frasor for UNC in 05-06 as TRUE FROSH (the year after their personell losses)

NCSUMEB doesn't make the best argument but, speaking in terms of the regular season, the 05-06 Heels were much more successful than this year's Duke team. Duke finished 7th in the conference with a 8-8 record, 22-9 overall. That UNC team was 2nd in the ACC with a 12-4 conference record, including a win at Cameron, and 21-6 overall. We'll have to see how the tournaments pan out for Duke this season.[Edited on March 6, 2007 at 7:17 PM. Reason : typoooo]
3/6/2007 6:57:22 PM
well now i guess I've seen it all, a tarhole even disagreeing with me? Well the crux of the argument is that UNC lost 91% of their scoring production (along with leadership) and Duke lost their big three, probably constituting at most, 70% of their production. After UNC's attrition, they had incoming AA's, nothing proven, and still had a better conference record in 06 than Duke had in 07, who returned 3 McD AA's from their attrition, and finished 7th in the conference with MORE returning talent in the year after they lost thier good players (which was still less in terms of production than UNC)....[Edited on March 6, 2007 at 7:07 PM.
