    I don't think the extra time will help the heels. More time to dwell on this delicious slump/streak causing more dissention and self-doubt.

    SIX straight losses, 11 out of last 13. You know how the well coached teams really show improvement coming down the stretch?


    Neither do the heels ...

    Funny part was Roy actually called TOs to try to slow the ND comeback. It didn’t work. And then he was out of TOs at the end when they could have used one to advance the ball to half court and get a better final shot.

    Plus, no free cheeseburgers from McD’s on the way back home.

    Hahahahahahah

    How so? The Heels still have their head coach on the sidelines. Now...whether said HC is doing a good job, that's debatable but other than a bunch of conference losses, I am not sure I see many similarities.

    Lost by 3 to Clemson
    Lost by 2 to Va Tech 2 OTs
    Lost by 1 to BC
    Lost by 2 to Duke in OT last second
    Lost by 2 to UVA last second
    Lost by 1 to ND almost last second


    They could very easily be 9-6 in the league and NCAA bound. This is not a bad team but boy are they having bad luck.

    Great comeback by the Irish. Heels blow 15 pt. lead last 9 minutes. That finish was just about exactly like the finish against UVA sat. KARMA and the basketball gods taking care of all those years of cheating the holes did. I love it!

    And by bad luck, you mean KARMA

    Except that the head coach is still coaching this year.😂

    I can't wait for the postgame interviews, where the reporters will undoubtedly ask all the players and coaches a dozen times each whether they still haven't gotten over the loss to Duke!

    Blown 20-point lead against UVA at home.
    Joe Smith’s tip-in
    The double OT loss after Capel’s halfcourter

    Et al.

    And, yes, still too soon. (That was during my time at Duke, and I watched every last one of them.)

    The similarity is in the number of blown leads and closes loses. Iirc, Duke was actually ranked when K stepped away, but for whatever reason they lost all confidence with Gaudet in charge. Not sure I think its debatable about Ol Roy: I think he's been exposed big time.

    Yes- but Karma like luck can turn around really fast. We can enjoy it now- but I have a bad feeling this will come back to haunt us.

    Haha...though the exact same thing.

    He actually has a lot of Rivers' game in him....and that's not a compliment.

    He called two time outs while ND was on their run. The first while they’re on a fast break, lol!

    After both time outs, the cheats turned it over. HaHaHaHA!!!!!!!!!

    Oh I don't know about that, I think it's a matter of taste. Nice to have such a variety of Tar Heel losses to choice from ...

    I remember it well- unfortunately. I think Duke had 5 such close games. UNC has 6 with a few more left.

    Nope. If this happened to the cheats for 17 more years and we laughed all the way, we’d still be on the right side of karma.

    Yes!! Leaky B was driving down the middle of the lane about to attempt a layup, and the whistle suddenly blows... Roy has called a timeout from the sideline 😂 This can’t get any better!!
