Nope. Have never tried the stuff. And odds are that what I said will come to fruition. But, as I said previously, we will just wait and see.
So this ^^^^^ is what made you come up with a comment like that?
Seventh to the Heels
- Thread starter LetsGoDukies
- Start date
Preseason #1 and current recruiting class in top 5 or 10. That's so far off! Regarding the NCAA, men's basketball will be just fine. Promise. Mean it.
Sky I am so glad to hear you saying this. They are such a lovable fan base and they need everyones best wishes and true love.
The fact they haven't rendered a verdict yet should scare UNC. I think you may be surprised.
well you would if you already had kids named 1 thru 6!
It might should scare some sports, but not men's basketball. There is a reason we are starting to land better recruits, and that is because it is slowly becoming known that bball will be just fine.
Hole fans wettin' themselves over a Top 40-50 recruit...a recruit they fought USC for. How the mighty have fallen. No disrespect to the Gamecocks but who woulda ever thought we'd see the day that unx had to battle South Carolina for a basketball recruit. A recruit , mind you , once ranked much higher than his current position. An' not fer nuthin' , Duke just inked the number one class in the country...again. And they're not movin' past this NCAA stuff either. If they knew they were innocent , they'd have pushed for closure. unx has dragged it out instead. Lotsa whistlin' pass the graveyard goin' on in tarhole land.
That is absolutely 100% untrue. unx fans keep tellin' themselves that as if it'll change the reality. BASKETBALL is the reason for all this. Pretty sure that says , "Notice of Allegations" in the top left-hand corner. MBB is specifically named ( as is football ) and the charge is LOIC. The only question is whether or not the NCAA will do what's required. True , they may not. Anything's possible. But this notion that "bball will be just fine?" If it were Duke I'd be crappin' myself. Seriously.
That's the point. I don't want this to be THR.
I actually disagree. But again, the last thing I want is for this place to be anything like THR.
All your credibility is now gone. I was banned for saying JJ was the best long range shooter in the history of the ACC. Did not insult anyone or your team. Simply responding to a question.

I think this is a good win for UNC. Seventh is by all accounts a good kid, but he reminds me and many others of Dexter Strickland. They are similarly ranked, play the SG position (even though Seventh might play PG some). I don't mean that as a slam, but it will take more than that to get UNC back to where it once was, and I don't see Roy bringing in those players for a while.
My feeling is, good for UNC, but I will definitely take joy watching Seventh be just an above average player for Roy. I say that because Seventh is just an average shooter and we all know Roy cannot develop shooters.
To sum it up, good pickup for UNC...but it will take more than that to get UNC to a final four or a title.
Seventh Woods will be a hell of a lot better than Dexter Strickland , the Heels finally landed somebody, let em cheer. It's not like what's happened over there is going away, hell, even if they won it all this year that stench storm ain't going anywhere. I don't see them winning it all this year, it's basically the same weak minded team they had last season. I don't even know if they will beat our freshmen This year and I'm willing to bet large amounts of money we destroy them next year with that absolute monster class we've landed. Unc has way to many infractions, saying nothing will happen is wishful thinking at best.
Not sure if he's a hell of a lot better than Strickland. Seventh is more athletic but he's not as good a shooter as Strickland. In fact, Strickland, based on his Per 40 minute stats, would average 11.7 PPG for his UNC career. I doubt Seventh will average much more than that over his four years.
That said, I think he's a nice player for them.
You do not come here with credibility, you E A R N it. You started at zero, and are now below that. By the way, is it true, as some parents at Woods school have told me, that Ole Roy promised Woods that he would be the starting point guard next year?
Not true at all. Both places you have to earn credibility. Here we will allow you some leeway to get there.
Back to Woods, his ranking dropped a bit in the last year, but I think he is a solid get. I think he was a top ten kid as a sophomore, but I could be wrong. Lower ranked, but maybe similar to Dexter Strickland. He will be a good athlete for them.
I may be in the minority here, but I hope you are right. A strong UNC program makes all of us better. But we want it to be a strong, HONEST UNC program.
OFC
Disagree again. You lost credibility here by defending the civility of the mods at THR.
If he is a worse shooter than Dexter Strickland, he might be the worst shooter in the history of organized basketball.
Some stats I read, posted by UNC fans suggest his shooting will need to improve. He's a guard that shot only 58% at the foul line. I will admit, I'm not a high school scout, but I just looked at stats posted on the UNC board that suggested he needs to be a much more consistent shooter in college.
Of course, now that he's committed to UNC, they will put him up there with Wayne Ellington, but before he committed, they were saying he needed to work on his jumper.
Their words, not mine.
Yet you insist he won't be any better than Strickland. I get it, you don't like unc , me neither, but Seventh Woods has skill and talent. Like some hinted above, how in the &@#% could he be worse?
I guess that means his parents were not so good at math, or maybe had degrees from UNCheats.
How 'bout we lay off the kid's name? Could be religious or cultural, but what difference does it make?

George Costanza wanted to name his child Seven after Micky Mantle.
Haha...funny. I think the best answer to that is because Roy can't develop shooters. He could be better than Strickland, but I would be surprised if he averages more than 12 PPG before his senior year.
My name is Willard, so I know what it's like to take **** for your name. Too many rat references, and none of my ignorant friends ever heard of the great Brautigan novel, "Willard and his Bowling Trophies." A true classic; right up there with "A Tale of Two Cities."

My brother is dead set on naming his first born Hieronymous, after Hieronymous Bosch the artist. I keep telling him this is a bad idea...
"Hiero" is not a bad nickname, though. I think I like your brother. (One of my favorites; Bosch's "Garden of Earthly Delights.") Yes, I'm sick.
OFC
unx has no interest in that. Never has. A level field ( court ) is the LAST thing they want. Whatever they're doing now is just a stop-gap to get 'em thru the investigation then it's back to business as usual.
