Three The Hard Way
The other night, I was playing in a local rec league basketball game. My team was getting drilled by the top team in the league. One of their players showed up for just the second half. He is a short, overweight, unathletic guy. If you saw him, you'd never think he was a good basketball player and you'd be right. Obviously, they didn't play this guy much, but late...

ACC Bible
I love ACC basketball. I love statistics. I probably spend an inordinate amount of time gathering, reading and thinking about ACC basketball stats, but I've got nothing on this guy. Michael O'Hara has collected and is publishing a book with box scores and game reports for every ACC men's basketball game ever played.
Wow.
And it's going to be a hell of a book...

The ACC's Best
William Maloney, AKA Eagle In Atlanta, wrote a column last week for his AOL FanHouse site. In it, he ranks the ACC coaches using an objective measure - the coach's winning percentage versus the school's all-time winning percentage. It's hard to find objective ways to compare coaches, but this is a pretty good one. (any moron can do it subjectively) It would have been...

Future Jacket Star?
I don't have much experience watching and evaluating high school football talent, but this highlight reel of Georgia Tech running back recruit Jonathon Dwyer is pretty damn impressive. I don't know, maybe all D-1 RB recruits look like that against high school competition, but even so, it's fun to watch.

Big Charles
There's just something about Charles Barkley. He's not the smartest guy in the world, but he's certainly smart. He's not the funniest guy in the world, but he's certainly funny. He's not the best basketball analyst in the world, but he's certainly a great one. He's not any one thing, but as a whole, he's incredibly unique and incredibly likable...

Hi Ate Us
You may have noticed - things have been a bit slow around here. With ACC basketball and football both deep in their offseason, I just haven't been able to work up the energy to put out too many posts. Been busy at work too. Sure, there have been a number of things that I'd like to write about - something comes up nearly every day - but I just haven't found the time...

Skip Prosser Dies Of Heart Attack
Wow. This is terrible news. Skip Prosser apparently had a heart attack this morning while jogging and died. He was 56 years old. By all accounts, he was an extremely likable and good man. Sad, sad, sad. I feel terrible for his family, his friends, his current and former players and all Wake Forest and college basketball fans. I had even planned on writing a post this week...

ACC Football Kickoff Linksplosion
You like that cheesy title? I knew you would. To continue my recent trend of providing ACC football previews without actually writing my own content, I give you three outstanding compilations of links from the ACCBasketBlog (they aren't just for basketball anymore!). I mean, why duplicate what they've already done? There are enough links on these three pages to keep you...

It Is Time - Hanging It Up
Back in October 1997, Dean Smith tried to get motivated to start his 37th season as head basketball coach at UNC and found he couldn't muster the fire. Coaching is a hard job and requires immense amounts of commitment and intensity. When it's not there, you can't fake it. Coach Smith knew the signs and so retired. Now don't get me wrong. I'm not really comparing...
