Not going to beat Duke at Cameron shooting 52% from the FT line or 37% from the field. My Tarheels need some shooters.
Also, I like this quote very much:
"You can't get Dick Vitale to say 15 words without Duke coming out of his mouth". - John Chaney

Dukies...argh.
You had that game won, Carolina.
I have nothing but respect for Coach K but I cannot stand Duke and the most annoying fans in the world. I hate that stupid "shake our hands like we're being electrocuted while making whale mating calls" thing that all of the Duke kids do ALL GAME LONG....and their stupid chants. Home court advantage is one thing, but they act like they're in some kind of cult or on drugs....or have a mental disorder.
They Grade A A-holes too.

Interesting tournament times. Duke done in one, in Greensboro. Maryland, Miami, NCState, UNC-CH still in. And the last "Big East" tournament as we know it, is 3/4 future ACC teams.
The "Duke fans with the arms extended" pics are awesome by the way. C'mon, you wouldn't say your fans were great if they cheered like that? We State fans are representing well, ourselves, with our chants and clapping.

Amazing run by Miami and Coach Larranaga. Nothing but class

Amazing run by Miami and Coach Larranaga. Nothing but class
I used to attended George Mason basketball games and considered myself a fan when I was living in Fairfax. I--and I'm pretty sure everyone else that was a mason fan--are very happy that he's doing great down in Miami and have nothing but respect for Coach L. He is a classy guy and deserves to be national coach of the year.
From what I had gathered from Mason alum, is that Mason snubbed Larranaga saying that they could afford to pay him $1 mill/year, especially after VCU, with Shaka Smart just signed Shaka to a $1.2mill/year deal and VCU is financially and size wise a little bit of a smaller school than mason. Mason basically lied and snubbed Larranaga, and the president who was there when Larranaga was there, retired, making Jim's decision that much easier to say ''Its been fun, I'm out''
I'm picking Miami to make a run to the final four, but they look like a typical boom or bust team in the Tourney so it'll be interesting this year.

There is always politics with everything, but Im glad Larranaga left.
Once again he made an unlikely run with this team all year. Miami wasnt picked to do sh*t in the ACC.
Lets hope it continues in the big tourney.

Did Miami get screwed by the NCAA tournament team? I believe Louisville getting a better seed, don't know how strong Gonzaga, KU, IND really are, but this is the first year I can recall the ACC regular season AND tournament champion not getting a #1 seed in some region.
Can't help but feel if Duke or Chapel Hill was in Miami's shoes, they'd be a #1 seed somewhere.
