What do you think of NC's full court press up by 31? And three consecutive steals....

A Carolina kid twisted his knee after making a good hustle play. That sucks.
I hope that he isn't seriously injured.

Nope, worse than it looked.

Torn ACL.

That's just rotten. What an unfortunate result of a hustle play by a kid.
I'm surprised that they are sure so quickly. Usually they say that an MRI cannot give a definitive result until the swelling goes down, which takes a couple of days.

I'll hope for the best for the kid.

Sad and disappointing. As someone who recently recovered from ACL, meniscus, and cartilage surgery, I feel sorry for him, know what's ahead, and wish him the best for a speedy recovery....Modern medicine is something though!

I think that NV needs the work on handling the pressure.

The poor 3pt shooting hasn't helped either.

I think this is D-1 basketball. You need to come to play. Nobody is trying to embarass anyone. Nevada's coach is a friend and coached at KU with Williams. Roy will empty the bench shortly.

I'm quite sure Mark Fox thinks so whether you do or not.

You read too much into my post - there was NO sarcasm there. I like Williams....and anyone else who consistantly beats DUKE!

From today's local paper:
http://news.rgj.com/apps/pbcs.dll/ar...712270348/1018
"This one is different for Mark Fox, because it reaches deep into his coaching roots. When Tar Heels' coach Roy Williams was at Kansas, he had Fox looking over his shoulder for a season.
Fox was working on his master's degree at Kansas when he observed Williams' program during the 1992-93 season.
"I had such a great respect for Coach Smith. When I was a kid I knew he grew up in Kansas and had gone to KU and that he had become the greatest coach of all time," Fox said. "When I decided to get my master's I knew Coach Williams had learned everything from Coach Smith. I just felt that was the place I could really go and learn. Coach (Williams) was generous enough to let me come and learn.
"I think it really helped shape how I try to operate today. Carolina basketball and then Kansas basketball modeled after it were as great of programs as you could have so I thought that's a model I would like to recreate. It (that season) shaped me in many ways."
Fox, who had been an assistant at Washington before going to work on his degree, watched every practice and home game. Beyond that, he spent countless hours talking to Williams' assistants, who included current North Carolina assistant Joe Holladay."

I haven't pissed anybody off for at least an hour. I was going into withdrawal.
