It played no D last year, what's it going to do with a bunch of frosh? <br /><br />Reggie didn't make the team? Well, in fact he did. Not a single player on this team would start on one of the top 6 teams in the conference last year. Reggie would start on every team, even UNC. <br /><br />The team will be horrible and ugly to watch. Not entertaining. Nobody will be at the games because they can barely show up for a winner.G.A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03582983958877803395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-43768353889548949482011-05-11T11:51:39.400-04:002011-05-11T11:51:39.400-04:00"White" seems pretty meaningful and comm..."White" seems pretty meaningful and communicative to me. <br /><br />So does pedantic.<br /><br />It's about time BC had its own version of the Fab 5.

I would buy season tickets. Think of how hard we cheered for walk-ons when they came on for a few minutes, let alone scored? Now imagine that for a whole season.Bretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326998438413727849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-13355815159189357702011-05-10T21:13:37.405-04:002011-05-10T21:13:37.405-04:00Perhaps, this would work better:

So bad that just bringing the ball up the court was an adventure. In fact, Gene came up to the upper level of Conte and thanked us for showing up (and he stole a nacho from me).<br /><br />I am not expecting much next season but I can almost guarantee that we will have more success than that team. I agree that having six freshman and Moton play the season together is only going to make us stronger in a couple of years.SLeBC02https://www.blogger.com/profile/02894423917953985936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-86475781819985080432011-05-10T08:39:17.815-04:002011-05-10T08:39:17.815-04:00Clinton Sims was no Alvin Sims.

I think they have the potential to really mesh together to produce an ACC contender in a few years.
