The press will be horrible next week if Duke Uncch meet in the FF. The Talk shows will be unbearable

When the NCAAT started, figured Mark Adams (Texas Tech) and/or Tommy Lloyd (Arizona) could be the next on a very short list, not Davis:

They are always horrible when it comes to their veneration of those two programs. They will just be horrible 24 hours a day for a little while. I’m reacting by avoiding as much coverage as is humanly possible until the tipoff of their game, as which time I will be rooting hard for Duke. One of them will win.

Jay Williams said Duke vs UNC-CH in FF will be the biggest college basketball game ever played. Also said it’s the greatest rivalry in all of sports. Geez!!!

I will be avoiding all sports media for the week.

I’ve found that responding to those discussions with this gif to be rather cathartic.

Pulling hard against Duke. K has made this season all about himself

I can never and will never root for Chapel Hill. Just can’t do it.
I think the media is more about Coach K at this point that he is.
24/7 news won’t stop on this one

I’m putting some large $$$ on Duke. I think they gonna blow the Heels out

Expected ESPN Radio to be all about the FF this morning but most of the talk was about Will Smith smacking Chris Rock at last night’s Oscars. :roll_eyes:

That looked fake to me

I think media has gone over the top with Coach K. He has said about all he can say that this year is not about him. I have a preferred outcome but I really don’t care either way and I also plan to avoid much of sports media this week.

Well if he didn’t want it to be about him then he should have waited after the season to announce his retirement

Totally agree that it looked like a staged smack. Oscars are dying for any type of coverage. I would not put it past them to stage this to get people talking

I believe he said he wanted his successor to be able to recuit his own players rather than a lame duck coach doing it under false pretenses.

Show Biz folk wanting attention? Surely you jest.

But but…

You cannot have turnarounds like that. It has to take 6 or 7 years, minimum.

ā€œTrust the processā€ :face_vomiting:

Yep, that’s always raised my hackles as well. I’ve seen it too many times

In all fairness, McDevitt was in year 4 for the turnaround…5 wins in his 3rd season.
