The Best ACC Basketball Season since 1994-1995

You wouldn’t think a Carolina fan would feel this way, but we are all witnessing the best college basketball season in 15 years. I understand the NFL makes more money, that college football has better ratings, but for my money there is nothing better than ACC basketball at its finest. It has taken a wide-open, [...]

Monday Morning Fodder

After a couple of boring weeks of games in the NFL Playoffs, Championship Sunday finally lived up to the billing.  It took the Colts almost two quarters to figure out the Jets’ defense, but once they did it was all Colts in the AFC Championship game.  As soon as Peyton Manning started throwing the ball [...]

The stories of excesses in football recruiting in the SEC are well-known, even legendary.  Tennessee upped the ante this season by sending “football hostesses” to visit a recruit at his high school, holding signs that said “Come to Tennessee”.

SEC bottom-dweller Mississippi State, perhaps feeling the competitive pressure of high-intensity recruiting, has added [...]

Old School Thursday

Earlier this week I was lamenting the need for an instruction manual for life.  I was talking about this with a friend of mine and we started reminiscing about all the things that were so simple and yet so enjoyable, like Popsicles.  So, while I do love Popsicles, this OST is about another one of [...]

Pirates Hire Pirate

Multiple outlets including the The Daily Reflector in G-Vegas are now reporting Ruffin McNeill to be the next ECU head coach.

McNeill, a Lumberton, N.C., native, played defensive back for the Pirates from 1976-79.
