If Hartzell wants her, she must be great?

Re: 2025-26 Schedule: ACC to 18 Games, Not 20?

Who would be DukeΓÇÖs best TV opponent at this point? LVille or Clemson? Miami with Lucas as HC?

Re: VIDEO: SMU welcomes WBB head coach Adia Barnes

So Wilson didn't have funds because Rick didn't ask the right people for the cash or Damon has brought a renewed energy and the vital need to fund all sports? I'm looking forward to the new year of WBB. That hasn't been the case in a while. VBALL is also awesome.

Re: Adia Barnes hire already paying off in transfer portal

Quick and decisive work by the new coach. We'll have to attend some games next year. Much more affordable than the men.

Re: Change in leadership for SMU womenΓÇÖs basketball

Karen Aston was apparently in the final two of the UH WBB coaching search. The Coogs went with Matt Mitchell who was a prolific coach at Kentucky before suffering a severe head injury while on vacation and taking 4-5 years off. Mitchell will make ~$600K. Aston currently makes $400K at UTSA ...

Re: GAME THREAD: MBB vs. Oklahoma State (NIT)

....and their coach is headed to the country roads of WVU. Ex-UNT AD is at WVU.

Maybe UNT didn't anticipate OK State beating SMU? :)

Re: GAME THREAD: MBB vs. Oklahoma State (NIT)

Yep quite fun in person with only 3100 in registered attendance. UNT had 2660 in their win over A-State. It wouldΓÇÖve been nice to have hosted UNT in another game. Missed Boopie but Oquendo really stepped up. The team played hard.

A game vs OK State would be a fun litmus test.

I got lots of ΓÇ£welcome to the ACCΓÇ¥ comments in Charlotte by various ACC fans.

South Carolina and LSU both declined invitations to the NIT. I guess extra practice and playing time doesn't matter that much to some programs.

Re: Cooper Flagg

The football playoff and NCAAs still seem to be important. Maybe some NIL will require it if healthy?

IΓÇÖd guess 75-80% Duke fans tonight and 10-15% LVille. My wife attended the SMU vs Clemson game and said Clemson had a showing almost as good as DukeΓÇÖs. Last night mustΓÇÖve been crazy.

Re: ACC basketball Tournament

Going to Charlotte on Friday but looks like I won't get to see any Pony hoops. Was hoping for a game vs. Duke that night but hopefully we win two to get there. My wife arrives on Thursday so maybe she can see SMU vs. Clemson. Fingers crossed.

Any recommendations for things to do in the Queen City?

Re: GAME THREAD: MBB vs. Syracuse

Crowd was way lower than LΓÇÖVille but came alive down the stretch. Gutsy win. Glad to have Boopie back and everyone fighting hard. Beat the Noles!
