ACC Basketball
ACC to disband the ACC basketball tournament. Annual Duke/UNC third time around game announced.
They might as well make it official. That was beyond bias. It was outright crooked. Karl Hess got his revenge. If you don’t follow our twitter feed then you really need to check it out. SFN was ALL OVER many of the local and national media’s admittance of ACC officiating bias and incompetence today. Link […]
ACC Attendance Declining
I have written several articles lately about ACC officiating bias. Here is an article that talks about how ACC basketball game attendance is dropping. IMO the two subjects are related. The article explains: As a whole, the ACC is averaging 9,406 fans through Wednesday.

NCSU is not alone in our disgust at the Duke/UNC double standard

More Thoughts On An 18-game ACC Schedule
Several years ago when I was talking to Jeff about becoming an author here, he said one of the big advantages of writing on a blog over a message board is that you never have to type anything more than once. If the same subject comes up again, you just link what you did before. […]
The ACC’s best combined coaching 1-2 punch

2009-10 ACC Hoops – A Jumbled Freaking Mess
Over the past couple of weeks, things finally settled down enough for me to watch more ACC basketball. I leave my esteemed comrade VaWolf to give you the best ACC analysis by the numbers anywhere, but here’s how I see things. First, every single ACC team is fatally flawed. Most in multiple areas. Duke is […]
