that 1/2 of THE greatest regular season sporting event will occur tomorrow night at 9pm.

UNC @ dook

go heels.


if you want to see hotpocket holley, he is #0. he probably will play 1 minute near the end if any at all. he is extremely talented at the game of football wide receiver but after football he joins the basketball team of UNC.

watch ray felton, UNC's point guard. he's the fastest point in the nation. aweome to witness. watch rashad mccants....the most deadly offensive weapon to play the game. UNC is blessed to have him.

watch the punk jj redick of dook. that acne-back white kid is possibly the greatest pure shooter ever to attend college.

the thing is, rock, rashad was merely 1st option. on that play, rashad is coming off a screen from sean which, in theory could easily open sean up as well. but willaims covered sean as redick ran through the screen. now, there is option 3 and that is a pass to noel and into marvin. that is the only option ray had with 4 seconds left. the pass was made but a dook player defended very well and knocked it off a heel and out of bounds ending thegame.

post game quotes had redick saying that K guessed correctly because roy ran the final play he has in the past. uconn, wake-to tie, and with K having drilled the dookies in practice about that last play, they were ready.

it is about being outcoached in the last moments of the game.

what i would have liked to have seen is ray recognizing this and having the heads up to drive the lane and possibly score or get to the line "a la" redick. but, as roy put it, "the players are taught to run the play till it works and dont deviate".

it was a game where the only heel that really showed up was sean may. the dookies had one of their best games of the season. our 2 scoring leaders, rashad mccants and jawad williams, were 3-23. (or somewhere in that range) cant beat dook at dook with those numbers.

if you ask me, we were lucky to be within 1 at the end.

march 6. dook at the dome.
