I would be floored if there are any firings at this point. Both for buyouts and inability to run a hiring process the way they would want to.

No surprise there

This Wuhan virus is more virulent/lethal than the flu but those numbers are misleading at this point in time. For flu we have widespread testing through multiple cheap and effective methods so we know the denominator a lot better for flu than we do Wuhan. For Wuhan we have a specialized...

touche :p Someone may be able to write the whole check if they did it right

It's obvious you don't agree with my logic but I really don't understand yours. Moses had size and athleticism to take a 4 off the dribble but doesn't have the ability to do that against a 5? Again, recognize I don't want to put Moses on the block but have him around the FT line or doing rim...

FWIW I probably wouldn't fire Manning right now. My big donors just got their *** handed to them in the market and I am not sure I can even have a new candidate fly into Winston Salem to interview (local guys notwithstanding). While the guys on the Wake sports board may well be (rightly)...

The con is playing a center who doesn't make the travel team at his high school in the ACC before he is ready. And FWIW we played Bubba with Jose and DeVoe a ton this year so not sure it is out of position going forward. On the other side IMHO this really isn't about Moses it is about Jose and...

If Moses can survive on D and we open the lane for Jose/DeVoe/Usher to drive I will take Moses being muscled a bit ;) In reality I agree with 98% of what you typed - I just think we can keep him in space on the offensive end against a big (not a wing) and use that more to our advantage than we...

Your position on Moses is not unreasonable but I think you are mixing things up in the way you are expressing it. No question Moses is not a classic 5 as far as a strong side post defender. If/when he plays the 5 on defense we are either going to have to play zone or change the way we play...

Red as always has a very nice summary of the stats for the season. We were an above average defensive team and a so/so offensive team. To complete the picture I would add one more stat and a bit of eyeball test to say why my optimism for next year is very cautious indeed. We shoot a decent...

He is a good one and would win at Tech if he could get kids in. But I have to admit the best coach of the modern era is in Durham

No

I assume this means relief from NCAA scholarship limits? Also need to redo the budgets now that ship costs, travel costs, etc are going up. P5 can likely handle it. I am not sure the rest of the NCAA can handle the increased costs. Will be interesting to see how this goes.

I always thought y'all were the same person and we were just reading a schizophrenic conversation with yourself

I would be really curious to know what the NCAA contracts with the TV networks have for an "act of God" clause. My bet (since we are talking about gambling) is that the NCAA is going to get paid a large percentage of what they would have been paid anyway based on the Act of God clause and that...

If/When that happens it will be almost impossible to count on get old/stay old as a strategy the way we (and ND/UVA) try to do it. Spending a ship and a ton of development time on guys who are likely to walk out the door is going to be hard to justify/sustain. There will be exceptions...

That's why I focused on the "stay old" part. We are old and will be next year. After that it is hard to see us being an upper class dominated team short of transfers. We will step back with regard to being old. Not the end of the world if you can recruit talent but not what was "sold" or...

Same with UVA. Guys on both teams were generally (not always) content to develop out of sight till their turn. We either didn't sell it well or we wiffed on selecting kids who had ACC potential. Either way it is hard to see the stay old part being a key tenent going forward

How hard is it to let the conferences know what you are going to do so you do it in concert?

Only Emert could make this decision to not have fans at a tournament a week away in such a way that he left his conference partners and their conference tournaments hanging out to dry with games going on with fans in attendance - then having to scramble to shut down fans tomorrow. Little...
