I don’t care how nice he is or how good the promotional videos are, I want to win a conference title. I want to win one this season, period. Been way too long. This Notre Dame game should be fun and all and I’d love to grab a W, but lets see how great they are against a fading Clemson. That’s the one we need to get.
Just Saw BC has their bye week before our game. We’ll be coming off consecutive meat grinders. We gotta win just to keep this crap from snowballing on us. Dang that’s rough! I’d take a 9-3 regular season right now if offered, if given one of the 3 remaining wins being Clemson.
gotta get the white 5 star guys like Duke does, they don’t usually make the one and done jump because of their verticals, just keeping it real y’all
I feel like we are pretty good, will be a fun bye week then a big game without pressure of having to win to secure a title. If we can get past Clemson we’ll have to lose the last 3 not to make the ACC championship game. Wow!
Hate to say it but the FBI is more corrupt than UNC ever dreamed of being. I mean you are talking about an untouchable agency that answers to a political appointee. Give me a break.
I was going to ask if the NCAA even considered the cars, houses, paid parking tickets or whatever. Its almost like they just lost interest or gave up. What was with the third NOA? Somehow they were bought it seems.
Thanks Chop, that explains some of it to me. I’m also assuming this paves the way for pay to play. It’s too bad we are here, but I guess we’ve been here all along? As Trump would say, “Sad!”.
So even though UNC admitted to improper benefits in women’s basketball, they received no penalty? I don’t understand what all the fuss was about and 4 year investigation. Is this the way the NCAA wants things run? Crazy. Do they have an explanation of what happened?
It’s gonna happen and I like Doeren, so whatever. His agent probably received a few calls from interested 3rd parties….
But lets raise the recruiting budget while we’re at it. I like this “winning” thingy here. Could get used to it.
I’m starting to enjoy this. We do look the part of a potentially all time great Wolfpack team. Hope we get to 10 wins. Finley has been very impressive with his passing and lack of mistakes. Hope he sticks around another year.
Burn it all down and use real students. So sick of the one sided BS application of the rules anyway. The whole thing is a farce. No wonder these fools think they deserve to get paid, they just want a raise!
All the coaches, AD’s, insiders, reporters or anyone who knew this crap went on and have said nothing forever are just as guilty IMO. That includes the sanctimonious announcers (Bilas etc).
I hope it all blows up. Tear down the NCAA too for that matter, its a joke.
[F]or 2015, the Post documented 987 victims of fatal police shootings, about twice the number historically recorded by federal agencies. Whites were 50 percent of those victims, and blacks were 26 percent.
That percentage of black victims is not helpful in proving that policing is racist. Though blacks are 13 percent of the nation’s population (and whites, 62 percent), blacks’ violent crime rates would predict that at least a quarter of the victims of police killings would be black. Police shootings will be correlated with the prevalence of armed suspects, violent crime, and suspect resistance in a population and area. Blacks were charged with 62 percent of all robberies, 57 percent of all murders, and 45 percent of all assaults in the 75 largest U.S. counties in 2009, while constituting roughly 15 percent of the population in those counties. From 2005 to 2014, 40 percent of cop-killers were black. Given the racially lopsided nature of gun violence, a 26 percent rate of black victimization by the police is not evidence of bias.
Moreover, the vast majority of the 258 black victims of police shootings in 2015 were armed, as were white and Hispanic victims. And 258 is a small fraction of the nearly 6,000 annual black victims of black committed homicide. Indeed, the percentage of black homicide deaths that result from police killings is far less than the percentage of white and Hispanic homicide deaths that result from police killings: 4 percent of black homicide victims are killed by the police, compared with 12 percent of white and Hispanic homicide victims. A “Lives Matter” antipolice movement, if there is to be one, would more appropriately be labeled “White and Hispanic Lives Matter.”
https://www.encounterbooks.com/features/11-critical-points-race-crime-america/I am continually amazed at the number of people who marginalize racism just because they don’t witness/experience it. Reminds me of people who claimed the holocaust never happened.
The issue is “systemic oppression” which must imply either official or conspiratorial.
Maybe some. I think it’s more about the conspiracy of “systemic oppression”. Because the inequality of outcomes must = racism. To swallow this, please take no notice of confounding variables.
When the inequality of outcome is being killed, and the leading indicator is skin color…..yes.
The word you are looking for is behavior
You are correct, CD. Not one on their knee is disrespecting our country or flag. They are quietly trying to say there is Injustice and discrimination still in country.
Maybe some. I think it’s more about the conspiracy of “systemic oppression”. Because the inequality of outcomes must = racism. To swallow this, please take no notice of confounding variables.
Ok, fair enough, how about “He did call people protesting a nonexistent conspiracy by disrespecting the flag during the national anthem SOB’s.”
And the right is not???? Yes I am right leaning but both play the same game. I’m old enough to have had devotions and said the pledge every morning in school. I also was trained in how to properly treat the flag and was part of the group that raised and lowered the flag each day. So I’m not some “leftist” who knows nothing or doesn’t care. This has become the current “wedge issue” to take our minds away from more serious issues.
Exactly! Both sides are shoveling the same BS.
You can’t have it both ways. You can’t praise Trump for calling a “spade a spade” then criticize the left for dividing us because Trump’s rhetoric is divisive as well… This issue would have just died down and went away until Trump opened his mouth. As President of the United States, you (as well as everyone) should hold yourself to a higher standard then calling players protesting “sons of b*tches” while calling protesting Neo-Nazis “fine people”.
Trump never called neo-nazis fine people, that is a lie. He condemned neo-nazis, said not all were neo-nazis, some were fine people, implying NOT the neo-nazis. Are yall too dumb to comprehend? Why bother setting up straw men? What’s the point? Read the quote. He did call people protesting the flag and national anthem SOB’s. Good on him.
