Good article about the evening. All of us heard this is the way it went down. Obviously it was an older crowd and everyone I came into contact with while getting my 1976 poster were disappointed in him. He knows he makes money off these same people for his speeches which are great. But he won't come back to the place where his legacy was built due to pride in a situation where the people involved are no longer there. He was all about doing it the right way. He has a generation of fans telling people we aren't doing it the right way when the man at the center of this won't do that. He simply can't forgive. That's not the right way.

Dakich went in on him today on his show. One of the better shows I have listened to.

Wake giving Duke all they can handle tonight

although we still should of beat them earlier in the season, they are defiantly a better team then most on here gave them credit after they beat us. Some were saying they would be the worst team in ACC. If you look at their resume today beating Wake in Maui would of been a more impressive win then if we would of beat Vandy( which people were saying was a missed opportunity for our sos when we didn't play them) they are 8-6 with their best win was against Wake

Well Maryland putting Rutgers in their place. 46-18 at half. And we struggled, granted, on the road.

I have this feeling this season could be an epic swoon of losses and what will appear like a total collapse at the end of season. Then, in reality, we were just never very good.

Time is going to tell.

I mean Wiggins is pretty freaking special, though he's probably more of a Paul George type player, with better offensive upside and probably worst defense.

 

Also, Simmons is an absolute freak. Dude more than deserves all the hype he is getting, the only player anywhere close to him is Kris Dunn

Yeah Im in no way downplaying the ability of Wiggins or Simmons, I'm just saying let them be themselves instead of every year someone has to be the next Lebron or the next Jordan, etc. 
No doubt that Simmons is the best player in college basketball and that Wiggins is a special talent as well.

Cheer up Doc!

 

You may be right, but I'm enjoying 3-0 in the mean time.

well, I did have a new patient today with HUGE radiographic cavities (near root canal) tell me I'm a liar and that he couldn't possibly have cavities. Rudest person I've ever had in my office. Somehow I have to provide a miracle and fix this crater without his tooth hurting afterwards. Yah, go me!!!
