I was looking for the post where someone said that "UNC is a better team that us right now." We have our problems, but so do they. That Louisville game was a fluke. Louisville was horrible in that game.

Tough week to be a cheater.

I said the same thing... It's a dangerous play to dive at someone's knees.

To top it off, UNC whined about the call.

Roy did finally call a time out --- to diagram a play down four, with 1.6 seconds left. Lol.

He hasn't had time to work on the 4 point shot yet in practice, he HAD to call time out!

And he still ended the game with a timeout in his pocket!

Thanks all for the alert, and the good news. Hadn't been following the game.

Looking at the ESPN boxscore (http://scores.espn.go.com/ncb/boxscore?gameId=400499301):

Tokoto leading scorer?
Just Mediocre McAdoo with 6 points
UAB actually shot even worse from the field, but got the win

The stat that jumps out to me is UAB with 21 Oreb. Is that correct?

Roy can't recruit
Macadoo sucks
Roy can't develop big men
Roy doesn't recruit shooters
UNC fans are morons


Hey those guys think a lot like us:D

I thought the key sequence as after UNC cut it to one ... UAB hit to free throws to make it 3 points with just under 40 seconds left. UNC spent the next possession launch off-balance, defending 3-pointers. Hit a quick two and get it to one -- then foul (UAB was still in the 1-and-1 at that point).

I haven't looked, but I'm sure on IC, the story line is not McAdoo (the most overrated player in the country), but how the refs screwed the Tar Heels like they always do. As Deems May said on UNC's football postgame show Saturday, UNC NEVER gets any calls and should accept that.

Wow. Unc got smoked in rebounding 54 to 37 and
UAB had 21 offensive rebounds to 11 for Unc.
UAB went 22-28 at the line, Unc went 4-11
Unc went 1-12 from 3 land and Paige was 0-6. Ouch
UAB only went 3-12 from 3 land
Once again a guard lights Unc up for 25 points, going 3-5 from 3 land, and 12-14 from the line.

That is horrible defense and horrible rebounding, and Unc's two best players (supposedly) were really bad. It took Paige 16 shots to score 13 points and as you note McAdoo was awful from the floor and overall. His stat line: 3-13 from the floor including 0-3 from 3 land (why is he shooting three 3's in a game) 4 rebounds, 4 Blocks, 3 TO's and 3 Fouls. Hardly a 3rd Team All-ACC performance against a mid-major opponent.

The Louisville game was an obvious fluke and more about the Cardinals stinking up the floor than Unc playing well. This team is in serious trouble if their two criminals do not return to the team. The info floating around still suggest LMAC getting 10 games and PJ getting the entire season. I would think the final decsions and announcements have to be coming soon, even if the rumor about making sure they remain on the team and in class through the semester for APR reasons is accurate. The semester wraps up in a couple of weeks.

Ol Roy made need to take a trip to the doc to check his health isssues if this continues. I sincerely fear for his health at this point. For real.

No kidding. This week, UNC:

Lost in volleyball to Duke with an ACC championship on the line;
Lost in football to Duke with an ACC divisional championship on the line;
Lost in women's soccer to UCLA in the Elite Eight (spoiling what would otherwise have been an all-ACC Final Four);
Lost in women's basketball to Arizona State; and
Lost in men's basketball to UAB.

I'll go with: Invent an injury and take a powder from this season...
The karmic price will be to high and a Black hole will spontaneous appear and eat Chapel Hill... more likely they wheel in a hospital bed and Roy coaches in a gown with an IV..

IC is a case study in rapid-cycling bipolar disorder.

It's also been classified by the CDC as a neurotoxin, so surf at your own risk.
