    DSD, By the way I didn’t interpret your original ‘credibility’ comment to be directed at DFMo. I just think it’s “funny” that people have to be afraid of their own shadow around here.

    Ok before you shoot me

    on a blog that is craving and begging for posts and activity

    LOL. It is true, you can’t win around here. I follow a blog for a professional sports team where people sometimes refer to each other as “respected poster”; this place could use some of that.

    e.g. When you look at the recent 20+ page sh*tshow regarding the Redskins.

    ^ Nothing is quite as awesome as basketball practice. That’s what I miss the most about the game…

    for those of you wishing to turn this thread into yet another politically fueled p-ssing contest

    Ha, I may just wait until we reach 20 pages of comments and read it all at once.

    Another way to look at it (based on RDW’s list above) – Top ACC coaches:

    1. K
    2. Boeheim
    3. Pitino
    4. Ol’R Williams
    5. Bennett
    6. Dixon
    7. Larranaga
    8. B. Williams
    9. Brey
    10. Hamilton

    I recall a discussion earlier this year that wasn’t too far off this… Of course without B. Williams in the discussion.

    Translation: We wish he would have come back down here before shooting his mouth off to the press so we can straighten his ass out on a few things.

    For 2015, another article came out a couple of days ago showing that Alabama is in dire need of an opponent for 2015.

    NC State – The girl Alabama picks up at “Last call”.

    And exactly what kind of offense did the Wolfpack run, Pop Warner?

    You lose all credibility here.

    NC State and Wake Forest and Duke University – sounds about right. And neither Wake nor us even have our occasional “rivalry game *” against Appalachian State.

    More food for thought:

    Florida State Doak Campbell Stadium 82,300 1950
    Clemson Memorial Stadium 81,500 1942
    Miami Sun Life Stadium 76,500 1987
    Virginia Tech Lane Stadium 66,233 1965
    Pittsburgh Heinz Field 65,500 2001
    North Carolina Kenan Stadium 62,980 1927
    Virginia Scott Stadium 61,500 1931
    Louisville Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium 55,000 1998
    Georgia Tech Bobby Dodd Stadium 55,000 1913
    Syracuse Carrier Dome 49,250 1980
    Boston College Alumni Stadium 44,500 1957
    Duke Wallace Wade Stadium 33,941 1929
    Wake Forest BB&T Field 31,500 1968

    NC State Carter Finley Stadium 57,583*** 1966

    ***Pending downsize to 30,000 to be consistent with comparable football programs and due to cancelled LTRs

    Perfect! Now all we need is some loud hip-hop and our fans waving four fingers like a buncha goons at the beginning of the 4th quarter.

    I never get tired of this line:

    “The College tightened oversight of departmental administrations and started checking to ensure classes were actually meeting.”

    Now we’re serious! We are going to require our students to attend class!

    This verdict and punishment was all about the players and their union, and I find that to be impressive. There is no reason to compare the offense itself to any other offenses. The question would be, has any other offense been a threat to the league itself?

    I would describe him much more (accurately IMHO) as a poor man’s Justin Gainey.

    I think this is very reasonable. Tyler Lewis never quite earned the right to be compared with our greatest point guards of all time.

    I mean… Engin Atsur had to run the point only because there was no true PG on that team – And who here would take Lewis over Atsur at the point? [And I loved Atsur, don’t get me wrong – Just saying that Lewis is a looooong way from being discussed alongside Corchiani.]

    None of the above?

    I was thinking the same.

    More like Nate McMillan…

    That is a mighty fine post, BOTB.

    The general tone toward Gott since the NCAAT loss has been a bit surprising to me. I’ve been through enough ‘fails’ to try to avoid the rose-colored glasses… But I find it very hard to call the 2013-2014 ‘Pack a bad coaching season. In some ways it was an extremely well-coached and well-managed season.

    Above all, though, DeFilippo simply wanted someone different.

    I remember reading that at the time… That was just unbelievable then and still is now. Skinner was great for BC.
