I expect copious notes from those of you able to attend!

Wish they'd stream it through goheels.com or somewhere. But that might cost the department/team/players money with the $150 charge for the reserved seat and autograph.

UNC already beat Bill Self. Won a championship. He returned the favor a couple of times, though.

We beat him when he coached Tulsa — I was at that game in Austin in 2000. Advanced to an improbable Final Four berth.

Some fun Bill Self-related facts:

When Bill Self left Tulsa for Illinois, he was replaced by Buzz Peterson, a UNC alum from the Asheville area. When Bill Self left Illinois for Kansas, he replaced Roy Williams, a UNC alum from the Asheville area.

Sad to say I'm done with the gridiron Heels. Wll watch the concert and tailgate until time to head to the Dean Dome. I'm excited to see the team HD has pieced together.

As was I on the next to last row of the upper bowl at center court.

I watched his long interview he seems like a great kid who's really working on his game. I thought he was taller than 6'7 though

He is. 6/7 is a Gen Z thing this summer. Not his real height.

 

[Zoo_View]

Don’t care.

Let’s see how they play against P4 teams.

If you can’t enjoy the journey a bit more then you should probably do everyone a favor and stay away from this thread.

i ll enjoy the journey when i see anything other than another bubble team from HD

I’m aware of the 6/7 thing as my kids say it ALL THE TIME, but in the context that Caleb said it, he seemed to actually be referring to his height. But maybe that was the joke? (And I do see he is listed as 6’10.)

Come on man. Get real.

Yes. That was the joke. Olds aren’t supposed to get it.

 

[Icky Mettle]

Yes. That was the joke. Olds aren’t supposed to get it.

As an aside, “6/7” has been banned at my kids’ school. It gets that overused. I can’t think of another non-derogatory slang term that has been banned by a school.
