Any G-Tech pain warms my heart! Congrats!

LOL, Wake has certainly caused some serious pain for the Jackets lately:

Big win over them for the ACC football championship title in JAX

Big win over them in hoops in the ACC tourney (double OT thriller)

And now signing a 5 star recruit they expected to stay home. :grinpimp:
 
Its football season no one cares. :flipoff2:
Post this in the second week of January when basketball season actually starts,

LOL, you don't care because you always blow at hoops and lately you've followed suit on the gridiron as well. ;) :grinpimp:
 
I seem to recall going into Wake Forest last yr playing football for 15 minutes and winning the game, or have you forgotten the stinging pain of that loss.

I also seem to recall Clemson having a better record in basketball last yr and at least making one of the postseason tourneys while Wake Forst watched them on tv. Or has that sub .500 yr been wiped from your memory as well.

Ah yes, recollections and memories of last year. Let's see...

- You yammering on and on about a national championship all spring / summer to once again puke late in the season like only Clemson can dropping 4 of your last 5 ending with a late game meltdown against the Cocks and an embarrassing showing in the Country Music Yuck-It-Up bowl when the SEC powerhouse Kentucky put you out of your misery... :grinpimp:

- Me offering you everything but a ride to a from the game to see your Tigers pull out a miracle in W-S but being the super fan that you are, couldn't be bothered to get off your couch. :flipoff2:

Back to basketball, since that is what this thread is dedicated to:

- Your 17-0 record setting start, seemingly locked in for a trip to the NCAA tourney and then looking lost while losing your next 10 of 14 when you had to play some real teams. ;)

- Your loss in W-S, bringing the total to 16 in a row and most likely the nail in the coffin keeping you out of the NCAA tourney and relegated to the Not Important Tourney as you like to call it. :grinpimp:

- Oh yeah, drinking a good bit of free beer courtesy of you and your mad bet making skillz... :lol:
 
Damn you beat me to it Andy, just heard it on primetime with the pacman. Thats a real shame you hate for something like that to happen.
 
I know, it has my head spinning. Really shows you how short and precious life is and that we take WAY too much for granted.

I heard this morning but it didn't hit the news wire until around 4pm.

Skip was an incredible ambassador for Wake Forest University and did things the right way. To say he'll be missed is a colossal understatement.
 
Very sad thing. I always had a lot of respect for him... more as a person than a coach, and at the end of the day, that's a lot more important.

You're right and you're not alone Steen. That is a popular sentiment held by most who knew who he was.
 
Yeah all I heard was about him as a person and his promotion and dedication of the University. Definitely made it sound like basketball was not the main objective like some of these guys.
 
Ahhh yeah gonna be a good year.

Clemson is just out of both polls sitting around 28 or 29. Im not sure how we dropped out from the preseason poll considering NO ONE HAS PLAYED A GAME until yesterday but whatever. We are gonna be good this yr. UNC better watch out Curry is a game changer one of the best players in college basketball. He will keep Davidson in the game.
 
Two words:

Kevin Love.

Yes, it will be a good year! Go Bruins!

Or to carry over from last year....Go WEST COAST!

You again with your West Coast drivel??? :D

Or to carry over from last year...the Vols hung 121 on your boys from LBC and you still owe me a cigar! :flipoff2:
 
Gonna be a long season if Lofton shoot 1-8 every game.

Yeah, some these guys gotta get a few games under their belt and work the kinks out.

Like, weren't you talking about Curry being one of the best players in college hoops...

UNC better watch out Curry is a game changer one of the best players in college basketball.

How's this bit about his play in his first game:

• All-America candidate Stephen Curry didn't help his case early on. Curry was blocked by the rim on a breakaway dunk attempt, and later shot an air ball on a 3-point attempt. He finished with 13 points and six turnovers. (CLT Observer)

You heard it here first - watch out for Deac freshman James Johnson! ;)
