BYU are the biggest low-key bitches in the NCAA.
maybe but Texas appears to be overly sensitive to horns down
and they're just asking every SEC team to have a horns down day when they come to down.
Hell, Mississippi St will slaughter a longhorn steer in the town square
At the Texas-Houston game tonight theres a dude behind the Texas bench holding up a sign that says “UH SUCK” [sic]
You got your money's worth tonight

I was surprised that Carolina was ranked so high. Everytime I've heard anything about them this season it seems like they just lost.

Texas Tech, out (well, they are 11). Tennessee drops. New Mexico, out. UNC drops. The rest "float" up. New comers are South Carolina and Illinois.

The wife is pissed. Amongst our daughters many transgressions at school today were multiple instances of her standing up and saying “GO TO HELL, DOOK!”
At least she didn’t say “Fuck Dook” because she has heard that more than once and got in trouble for saying it in front of her mom a while back….

Well, I bring you greetings from my home office as I work since I can't sleep.
1. Dook didn't lose that game. Carolina won that game. Carolina wanted it more. It was far from a perfect game, but Carolina took shots from Dook and didn't flinch. There were chances for things to get hairy late, but Carolina didn't fold. Granted, Dook didn't capitalize on a couple of chances they were handed by shit officiating down the stretch, but Carolina showed poise.
2. Harrison Ingram may not be the most athletic 3/modern stretch 4 in the country, but he has shown a lot the last month or so.
3. Filipowski is a bitch, and more on him later.
4. Hubert had a good game plan, and to Dook's credit, they hit a lot of well guarded, contested shots in the lane after being denied the three, Dook's bread and butter. Still, Carolina didn't back down and kept pushing the pace.
5. I think Dook will respond in Cameron. I think we will see an overly aggressive, dirty outburts of classic Dook shenanigans because they were outmanned and embarrassed tonight.
6. This team has two main shortcomings that will limit their chances in March: lack of guard depth and lack of athleticism. Carolina has no real backcourt depth outside of Trimble, and that's disconcerting. Withers and Washington are suitable front court depth, but the lack of dependable guard and wing depth worries me. The lack of athleticism is shown when they struggle with backcourt on ball pressure and in guarding / rebounding against teams with length and athleticism.
7. Mondo finally showed up tonight. That's the Mondo we saw in March 2022, and it was great to see him respond in a big way tonight.
So, it seems as though that dirty Polack, Kyle Filipowski. has a 26/27 year old gold digger girlfriend who has been dating him since he was a senior in high school. She is now a Bama grad working in RTP as an "executive assistant," and they claim to have met through "mutual friends" despite the fact that he is from a small town 75 miles from NYC and attended boarding school in Massachusetts. When they "met" she was still in Louisiana after having attended LSU for a Masters or some such, and then she moved to NC for her job in RTP. The word is that his family despises her and that the basketball staff / program / team hate her because she is causing all sorts of shit by filling his head with bullshit. Here's to hoping this gets extremely messy and extremely public!

Decent game last night. Reminded me of two mostly white big 10 teams duking it out.

The only time I've seen Carolina play this year was a glimpse or 2 of the UK game while at the oyster roast. I was under the impression they weren't that good based on that. I guess they are ranked third now but I can't see them winning it all. Then again, is there any team that's really good? Seriously, I don't know. My shitty paper dropped its AP membership so I have no clue what's going on with national sports now. But I did see that Carolina beat dook again. lol
