The Official Duke/UNC 2017/18 Basketball Thread!!!

Great to see the FBI crackdown on real criminals. That damn $106 lunch at PF Chang’s or Cheesecake Factory is killing amateur athletics.

I’m pretty sure I helped commit an NCAA violation because I bought a round of drinks for Colquitt and some of his crew at Hannah’s on the Strip once.
 
I haven't seen a dollar amount, but the UNC connection is Tony Bradley. Bradley's dad says it was the agency ordering pizzas when the Bradleys met with thm in the process of interviewing/hiring an agent.

Pizza? If I’m going to break the “rules” my future agent better take me to Ruth’s Chris for a $70 cowboy bone in ribeye with sides and their nicest bottle of Shiraz or Cabernet.

While there are a couple of big names and some large “loan” amounts, this looks mostly like a bunch of meals where the agent picked up the tab and a few loans that would equate to spending money or maybe one car payment. I’m not saying that any of that is right, but I really hope the FBI has been doing more work here than busting folks over some free Chang’s Spicy Chicken and Little Caesar’s Extra Most Bestest. Surely, there is more important work for them to be doing.

Yeah, it certainly doesn’t seem like much - not what we were lead to believe that this would “completely change the sport.” I’m still nervous that more and more information will come out like the Sean Miller news last night though.
 
2-day turnaround, road game, tough and well-coached opponent, maybe overlooking a little because we beat VT by 20 and UNC is next. Perfect recipe for a loss, IMO.
 
Terrible execution down the stretch, bad turnovers, missed free throws and some questionable officiating (which shouldn’t have been an issue) were all reasons that they blew another double digit lead on the road to an inferior team.

Boston College
St. John’s
UNC
VPI

Ridiculous

The ridiculous part of this statement is including UNC as an inferior team. I won't argue that Carolina is equally talented, but as a team, they're pretty close.

Lol Duke is only the better team if you're using recruiting rankings

Duke is better, but I was just trying to piss you guys off. Looks like I succeeded.

I admit I did a little bit, but not like someone else who has no business in this thread . That continues to try to attract attention.

No worries. Subtle hints of troll amongst an air of Duke superiority complex and condescension.

I agree about the rest.

You guys know me, I don’t troll. I was just pissed after the game last night and was being a dick. My bad.
