I heard Pace wants to schedule them next Season for a real game , not Exhibition .
Just noticed on latest Lunardi Bracketology from last week he has us as a 10 seed playing 7 seed St. Mary's in Omaha. Has 6 BE teams getting in with Xavier in a play in game, Creighton & UCONN 2 seeds, Marquette a 3 seed and Nova a 6 seed. As usual he underestimates us.

Realize all these rankings are somewhat meaningless until the games are played (after all UNC was #1 preseason last year) but couldn't help but notice that assuming we play Houston, we would be favored in 22 of the 31 regular season games we play based on these preseason rankings which dovetails with my prediction that we finish regular season 22-9. Stupid I know, but always fun to look at these preseason numbers.
Former UNC and NBA star Walter Davis passed away at 69. Very good and exciting player. RIP.

Ex-Suns star, UNC great Walter Davis dies at 69
Walter Davis, who spent 15 seasons in the NBA after starring at North Carolina, died Thursday. He was 69.
Great player and one of my favorite UNC guys over the years. Averaged 19 ppg over 15 year NBA career and shot over 50% from the field and 85% from the line. RIP Walter.Former UNC and NBA star Walter Davis passed away at 69. Very good and exciting player. RIP.

Watch video of basketball in the 70’s. Only time a player hit the floor was diving for a loose ball there was no trying to draw a charge. Duke coach K and Shane Battier basically brought it into the game.
No, but the they will still be considered with the same first letter as “flop” and ending with a “u.”
