Yeah if the conversation is centered on cheating.
If you guys click on that thread from RR that I linked check out some of the new posts from that Willy moron. Another idiot claiming Duke has won every title because of the refs and the NCAA in on making sure Duke gets the easiest path and wins it all. Truly amazing.
That's part of the wussification of America....standards have changed.
Clearly the greatest of all time. I mean, Dean's two titles were ensured at the expense of two bizarre and child-like turnovers and Roy's two titles were ensured by using ineligible players. McGuire also had one title in an era with no freshman, no 3-pointers, no shot clock, and only one representative from a conference. Clearly UNC* is the standard for college basketball.
I've got to give some props to whoever created the absolutely nobody user name and is liking posts. That's pretty funny
Here's a real laugher courtesy of @truetarheelraider0806:
I will tell you this and then I am off this thread ingrim was COMING to UNC I til rashad mccants lie took the media by storm. Jalen Rose then started saying the men's team was going to get hammered and no matter how Roy tried to reassure the family espn had them scared to death to come to unc.
Helen kept saying Roy knew and how could he not. while in his 30 for 30 doc he says his coach knew nothing. what? espn is a powerful entity and once they start negatively talking about a progra. especially one as prestigious as UNC people listen. they want to see a blue blood who they figure cheated all along get hammered factes be damned. that is why ingrim didn't come here. to much negativity. But the parting shot he left was unnecessary. I wouldn't be at all surprised of someone out him up to that. he was coming then mccants happened damn.

Judging by the literacy of that post I assume he was a basketball player in the mid-2000's and played at UNC.
Whatever happened to the theory that Ingram knew he wouldn't start a single game last year for unc and that's why he came to Duke? They even laughed at the idea that he would be a OAD.
This thread is pretty funny:

Couple of great quotes from DSouth from way back in there:
#2 pick in what? There is zero chance anyone wastes a #2 NBA draft pick on him, he at best maybe end of the lotto and that would be based on perceived potential
Ken, you know darn well, if YOU are a NBA GM there is no freakin way you waste a first round pick on him! By the time he finally gets to the point of being able to help a team he will be out of his rookie contract and most likely leaving the team that drafts him.
Little Richard makes an amusing appearance too:
I guess he will go top 5. That's quite an indictment on how the NBA drafts players these days. The fact that he could go #2 is embarrassing.
IMO, Ingram will never average double digits in the NBA.
Thanks! I just like to congratulate my fellow Tarheels whenever they make intelligent poasts! Our fanbase is well-supplied with brilliant minds!
Look at these total A holes at RR. Sickening people.

I remember that thread. I believe he also wrote in that thread that if he were a GM, he would draft Brice Johnson 1 overall.
I love the guy who calls it embarrassing to the country that a former Army vet is our countries basketball coach. I guess we should go with a guy who has had 2 final fours vacated. That is what is right about our country, not the guy who has worn the uniform of our country. LOL, can't make it up.
Brice Johnson tore up the summer league; he averaged 5 turnovers and 6.2 fouls per game to go along with his 15 points. So in DSouthr terms, he "nearly averaged a triple double".
This thread is filling that void for me this afternoon. Between some of those THR quotes and past quotes and the RR threads all you can do is laugh and shake your head at the stupidity.
You and DJ had some great counterpoints in the old THR thread I linked earlier.

Only one who can't hot 3s next year is Meeks.
Bradley can. Maye can. And those are down low guys. Then add in berry jackson pinson williams etc. Good lord.
I expect us around the top of the ACC in 3s this year.
*splosion
Blind optimism at its finest.

UNC doesn't like what they're not good at - integrity, for example.
But if they ever become good at something, that's when Roy becomes a visionary who revolutionizes the game. Unlike most coaches, Roy adapts. He listens. He learns. He may even call a timeout one day
This reminded me of a quote I came across in that old THR thread about Brandon Ingram I linked this morning. Courtesy of Gary:
1. The fact that Roy recruits elite OAD players does NOT mean he would take them all. Unlike Cal, he does not over-recruit. If he gets a OAD he thinks can help for a year, then yeah... but he will NEVER build his program around that, nor should he. Thus your argument fails miserably.
2. Roy will only start a freshmen --- ANY freshman --- if he feels he is ready and fits at that point. Marvin Williams, a sure fire lottery pick, came off the bench because that's where he fit best on that experienced loaded team.
3. Roy's "system" is the best basketball system ever invented by the best coach who ever coached anything, Dean Smith. It is not some dumbed-down romper-room glorified AAU stuff like Cal plays. Roy's system can adjust to personnel but he's not gonna build it around them.

So true, Devilz! And if they ever reel in any OADs they'll be the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Edit: Haha, didn't see your post Mark before I made this.
OFC
Gary on the myth of impartial scouts when asked why Platek is ranked outside the top-100:
There are no such things as "impartial evaluators". If there were Jalek Felton would be consensus Top-15.
Interesting, because @Eric Bossi had this to say about Felton:

Good response to Gunslinger, no, excellent response.
That's some far out stuff. Sometimes I feel as though I'm in The Twilight Zone when I read some of these. It seems as all of these people are in a group home some where together and sit around in a room and post their discussions. It just doesn't make much sense. OFC
To any reasonable UNC fans out there that are reading this: I'm so sorry that you are caught between the moronic majority of your own fanbase and the overzealous lot here. Grab a whiskey and forget about basketball for a while. There's no easy way out of this one.
That's the only post I've made at THR in five years or so. And believe it or not, it got me banned. I have no idea what I said or did that warranted it, but @mikeirbyusa never responded to multiple emails I sent him and neither did two of their other mods.
This post is a first-ballot THR Hall of Famer.
No doubt. Roy wouldn't take every OAD he recruits, huh? Lol. And he doesn't "over recruit." So I guess that means Ole Roy doesn't look for top talent every year. If you sign with the Holes he will not recruit another player at your position until you leave. Cool. Ha haaa. Such fools.
I love the idea of recruiting a kid just to not take him. That is the very model of efficiency. #roydoingwork
I remember that one like it was yesterday. I tried to even make that point by listing them all out for them. You mean if you got one you would have turned down the others? Sweet logic!
