    UNC @ GT Tuesday @ 7PM

    This. It should be dry before it is cold. This is looking like a non-event for frozen water.

    UNC @ GT Tuesday @ 7PM

    It is a syndicated game, specifically the RSN package, which is mostly picked up by Fox regionals. In typical fashion, the ACC hasn't posted the link of stations carrying the game yet. Here is a link to the list from the GT/Clemson game that can be used as a list of likely stations to carry it...

    ACC Discussion

    Neither of those schools have any concerns about any buy out. They were both over $200M in athletic revenue last year per the USA Today numbers.

    Gotta admit it...

    Duke is now 325th in the country in 3 point percentage. Funny.

    False Hope

    Amen. Bobby was really good at uniting people. Those that have come after him don't understand how to do that with the alumni and fan base. We are a strange bunch with an anti-outsider culture. Bobby refused to accept that culture and brought his view of the world to us. We were better for it...

    Article Jackets Look for First Win in Cameron Since '04

    Kenpom's model has 22. The extra half point is for the dorks with the cheer sheets.

    False Hope

    I think we are all saying the same thing from different angles. You guys follow recruiting much more closely than I do. The star based attempts at math miss the entire point, IMO. I find hearing how coaches approach recruiting strategically far more interesting than the recruiting news that is...

    False Hope

    Right. I agree with all of that. That's why taking averages of star rankings is silly. The arbitrary line between 3 and 4 isn't meaningful so the numbers end up simply wrong. Recruiting is all about getting guys that fit your system that will be developed into better players in that system...

    False Hope

    It depends what "valid" means in this context. It is valid in that the people who do it do the best they can. The real question is how well do the ordinal rankings correlate to future results compared to how well past results correlate to future results? If there is much difference I'd bet on...

    False Hope

    There is probably the same or better correlation with all-time program record to wins as there is with recruiting rankings and wins. Unless you compare the two it is pretty much meaningless. I can tell you right now that Duke, UNC, Kansas, Kentucky, and UCLA will be really talented in 5 years...

    False Hope

    It creates subjective objects that are then misapplied. Stars aren't meaningless but they are far from accurate. Imperfection isn't meaningless but shouldn't be interpreted as objective fact. Adding up stars, averaging stars, statistical analysis of stars are meaningless endeavors. If you had 5...

    It's a pick 'em in Vegas. Kenpom has GT by 3, which doesn't consider who is injured.

    Louisville at GT

    I apologize for interrupting the whining for a minute. What was Chris Mack so mad about near the end of the first half? They were ahead by more than 20 and he was screaming at the officials for more than 5 minutes.

    which espn do we need to watch the games?

    This is correct. The syndicated games that are shown on local TV stations (whether network affiliates, Fox Regionals, or other local outlets) will not be available on WatchESPN in your market if their rights to your market are purchased. This should not be a problem as of August, 2019 with the...

    which espn do we need to watch the games?

    This. ESPN+, at least for the foreseeable future, will only have things that haven't traditionally been on cable.
