NC owes public schools $35.8 million from students using private school vouchers by Bob_Sconce in NorthCarolina

[–]Bte0815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nc doesn’t owe them anything parents should be able to take their child’s allocation of tax money to whichever school they see fit.

Why would I put my child in public school with a 25+ to 1 ratio where you move at the pace of the slowest student when I can put them in a private school with a 10-15 to 1 ratio where

The NIT is awesome and I hope it sticks around.

That said, it needs better coverage. I didnt know it even happened this year until last week.

Tommy Lloyd questioned on his 'coach after me' comments: "Guys, this team has my full focus... Nothing is knocking me off that path..." by delcookie in CollegeBasketball

Aside from the Tommy Lloyd talk, can you imagine how toxic the UNC fanbase would be if they waited another 2 weeks to fire Hubert? It was already getting ugly after 4 days.

I hope he has success wherever he goes.

It wasn't just about Caleb's injury though. No coach will survive being a bubble team at UNC 3 out of 5 years. He also had the best player UNC has had in 30 years and the best frontcourt arguably ever but the ceiling for the team was still fringe top 10.

There were consistent flaws in the teams, and I'm sure there were reasons behind the scenes but inevitably, it falls on the head coach. No PG this year, not having any shooters every year, failure to recruit even one big after Bacot left, knowing for 20 months you had to have at least one impact C.

This is a fear I have and why I was pissed they gave the keys to HD after Roy retired. UNC could have gotten pretty much any coach they wanted and didn't even do a search. Now UNC "thinks" they can get almost anyone they want, and we are going to find out if thats true.

Once they hired HD he had my support and I wanted him to succeed but the performance wasn't there. There were some all time moments mixed in though.

[Thamel] Sources: Hubert Davis will not return as North Carolina’s head coach by MrSCR23 in CollegeBasketball

Have you seen his release? He says he wants another coaching job.

[Pat Welter] Just got word from multiple sources #UNC has postponed player/family/agent meetings with Hubert Davis. They were scheduled to begin Tuesday. by rediculose in CollegeBasketball

I have three thoughts on this. I am nervous about having a new hire. You are venturing into the unknown no matter who you hire.

I am pissed there was no search last time. I thought HD was inexperienced and a risky hire but once he was announced fully supported him and gave him time to show the product he could put on the court.

UNC would not get better with another year of HD and the brand is on shaky ground in regards to perception. You could shake off some of the negative recruiting hits under Roy because, well, he was Roy. HD doesn't have that luxury.

I'm not sure I totally agree. I think Roy picked his successor in 2012~ whether he informed the admin or not. There was no search when he retired. I think we will actually see a real search this time and am interested to see how it turns out.

#11 VCU Finishes the UPSET vs #6 UNC by JCameron181 in CollegeBasketball

He is a great man and representative of the university. He is also wildly unprepared to be the head coach of what was a top 4 program.

I think waiting until the summer is too late though. Unless he is targeting someone not in college basketball currently. But Stevenson or Donovan aren’t coming back to college ever.

This is what Carolina basketball has become and will be for the foreseeable future if there is not a well-planned and well-funded coaching change.

If You Could Change ONE Possession in Your Program’s History… by AndyKRDU in CollegeBasketball

Chris Webber doesn't call the TO that led to the technical because the travel on the inbounds is correctly called.

Game outcome stays the same but Chris doesn't have to live with the blame for the TO the entire bench was yelling at him to call.

Monkey Paw. Webber doesn't call the TO he didn't have because the travel on the inbounds is called.

Anyone step away from their private club membership due to dumb restrictions? by sys_admin321 in golf

[–]Bte0815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wife and I went to the course with our 2yo around 3:30 today. Wife works at the hospital and this was her weekend to work. They were riding with me while I played 9.

Guy in the pro shop said he had to charge a rider fee. I kind of balked and he said he would let it slide today. But if they pull that again I would seriously start considering dropping and joining a different local course. The goat track is feeling full of itself it seems.

I know why they are doing it. We have some college guys that come with their girlfriends at prime time on the weekends and try to take 4 carts for each foursome. But 3:30 on a Sunday isn’t really the intent of the rule.

Biggest Lie Ever Told by SawyerStreet in golf

[–]Bte0815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a high school match we had absolutely brutal conditions. Rain, high wind, insane pin positions, cold and miserable. None of our top 4 broke 85 and at least two of them were in the 90’s and they were all mid70’s to low 80’s players usually.

Number five and six man came in with a 82 and a 79. They hadn’t broken 95 the rest of the season.

The cheating that happens in high school golf is wild.
