I agree…too bad this stuff is burried on page 50 of the sports section. All I saw (for the 3rd time this week) is article after article of Tarhole crap!

Come on. They have played AP nos. 12, 8 and 4 in the same week. What, honestly, did you expect?

[b]The decision to review the shot was correct. The way it was handled was correct. And the call was correct, despite what folks in Indiana might say about when the clock should have started. It was their timekeeper, after all. Complain to him.[/b]

Heh heh heh… get 'em, Jena.

It is hard to argue the Tarheel's coverage this year. It is deserved along with Wake's.

The Heels are scary good this year. I don’t like them, but it’s hard not to be amazed when you watch them play.

I’m not a Tarheel fan, but its hard to argue with the content of today’s paper.

Like them or not, Carolina-Wake deserves most of page 1. Charlotte & C-USA got “above average” attention in the rest of the college basketball pages…which in my paper started on page 4.
