I have no idea who the little Carolina’s women’s coach is but she is dripping in swag.

Dawn Staley?!  Absolute legend in womens basketball.  She is the best womens coach out there IMO.

Well, Carolina was flagrantly fouling the whole game with Bacot performing admirably at middle linebacker.  The final two minutes when the game was entirely up in the air and we saw a phantom foul call on David, then waving off Keels and-one pretty much gift-wrapped the game for the Heels. 

Again, this is nothing new.  Literally any objective viewer knows this happens in almost every matchup between the two.  It's pretty bizarre actually.  I've always called the Tar Heels the Dallas Cowboys of college basketball.  Fans, media, and refs constantly slob on them for some reason.

You can’t be serious. He wasn’t anywhere near started in a shooting motion in the play you’re referencing. Duke is pretty famous for constant hand checking, shoving, reaching, etc. and not getting called for the past 40 years. Hell, their sub big Lil John or whatever his name is would have easily fouled out in the first half had he been called for all the times he pushed his hip out on a screen.

Man you must have been watching with Duke Blue Glasses because Duke was getting away with far more than Carolina.  Both halves Carolina had more fouls called against them than Duke.

Let me hand you a couple handkerchiefs so you can cry in them.

Obviously a Dookie.

Enjoy the celebration of the end of Coach K career.   Wasn't it awesome to get double dipped by Carolina.  Ruined your last home game and sent you packing back to Durham a couple of days early.

BTW a typical Dookie always making excuses.

In typical Duke/Carolina fashion, the officiating came through to help the heels pull out a BS win.

I'm not a fan of either team, or college basketball in general, but over the years of watching the games I have come to just laugh at how lopsided the officiating is in the matchups between these two.

you mean like the time Williams jumped back about 6 feet, fell to the floor, and the called a charge on Bacot? yeah, that was totes legit.

While I am a UNC fan in the ACC, I still think Coach K is the greatest college basketball coach of all time. 

And I think Dean Smith is immortal--I know a few UNC players who told me about his relationship with them--(Al Wood, John Virgil) and both said he was like a father to them--during and after they played at UNC.

Coach K started getting into those "one and done" players (everyone does to an extent) and it was not the same for him because both he and Coach Smith helped players grow into men.  We were fortunate to have 2 great coaches in the backyard.

Coach K sold his soul and became just another Calipari in his later years. Churning through one and doners constantly looking for the quick fix. At least Cal is fairly honest about what he does. K kept preaching about his "brotherhood" though. Honestly, it was funny watching him delude himself into actually believing his own bullshit and of course the media lapped it up.

You must not have been watching the game.  At one point in the 2nd half Duke had 2 fouls and Carolina had 8.  How in the hell is that officiating lopsided to the Tarheels.

 

9 to 2. To the point, Tracy Wolfson did a report on HD having to talk to the refs about the foul disparity. Something I have not heard in years, or for as long as I can remember. The refs kept Duke in that game, because Duke shot 60% from the FT line. Roach was a non factor after being a factor all Tournament long. And lastly shot 22% from 3.

I don't think K has been much of a coach the past 5 years, in my opinion. His assistants have done the majority of the work.

    • The reality though is that there just isn't a traditional #1 pick type of player in this draft to begin with. He might have been below Marvin last year, but I don't think he'd have been below Nabers. And if you think he disappears in some college games, then you're only looking at the box scores, I guarantee you not a single NFL GM will say he disappears in games when watching the tape. Arizona's offense is a MESS this year, the new coaching staff is beyond bad and the fanbase is screaming for them all to be fired, our OL is awful, our QB is playing like utter garbage, and we don't have another weapon to attract any defensive attention.  Teams are double and triple teaming him on almost every snap, and when combined with the OL and QB issues, it's just impossible to get him the ball sometimes.  And even when our QB forces the pass to him, half the time it's not even catchable given how poor he's been playing. And even despite all that, he's still 3rd in the nation in yards. I've also seen more WR rankings having Burden over Hunter than I have seen Hunter over T-Mac.  If we had a true outside #1 WR, then taking someone like Hunter (or Burden) instead of T-Mac would make more sense as if Hunter were to play WR in the NFL, he'd more likely be used a slot guy like Godwin or Kupp.   There's a reason most mocks/analysts who don't list Hunter as a CB/WR (or just Athlete) list him as a CB.  Because it's his better position and the side of the ball he's more likely to play in the NFL, partially due to his wire thin frame, I don't see him holding up long term as a WR.
    • This was a good breakdown from Daniels.  Last year has had a lasting impact on Young. He still isn't getting the time needed from the OL - the OL we have is made to establish the run and for the run to be in play.  We get behind and have to throw all game we are doomed with this O-line. His receivers have to catch the ball when he makes a good throw to them, he can't have them dropping his good passes. Why are we running 4 slants all toward the same direction?  Why a triple option on 4th and 1? That's on the coaches. Bryce gets hurried and starts slinging the ball where it shouldn't be thrown, more study and recognition from him are needed.  Bryce doesn't step up in the pocket and throws too soon and unbalanced.  He over and under throws the ball because of it.  That's on him.  If the pocket isn't there and he can't get his base set he needs to check down or "live to fight another day." He has been thrown to the wolves and has lost his confidence.  This team doesn't have much, if any, talent and it's a cluster.  I think he can still be an NFL QB.  Maybe not a QB1 in the short term, but if he has a chance with better coaching and personnel he may be better than we are giving him credit for. I think we ruined him last year and have not fixed anything to help him this year.  If we can't run or get way behind all NFL defenses are coming after him.  Dalton has more respect and defenses didn't always sell out to get to him because he'd hit a quick slant, screen, or check down because he has the experience to know what's coming and what to do. Just my 2 cents.
    • All depends on who the backup is. Josh Allen probably would have been benched too if there were better backups than Matt Barkley and Nate peterman.
