Lol. The address listed for Will Graves on the police investigation comes back to the same person as the vehicle Leslie McDonald had was registered too. Appears to be a female. Must be someone who sold their address for "use" in these situations.

Knowing what we know about Roy's "provincial", aw-shucks persona, it's extra hilarious he was unwittingly renting out one of his homes as a party mansion/weed spot. The whole story-line reminds me of a Notorious B.I.G song.

The two weed spots, the two hot glocks
That's how I got the weed spot
I shot dread in the head
Took his bread and the lamb spread.
Lil' Gotti got a shotti to yo' body
So don't resist or ya might miss Christmas...

It's been a great decade so far.

Is that confirmed? Looks like there's a question mark there, as if it's speculation. If it is true, then I'm not surprised. All this garbage is just gonna keep coming out. I'd like to know exactly what type of relationship this woman has with Graves though.

NC State fans, and their investigative buddies from Kentucky, will make sure that all the details are brought to light.

I mean it sounds like something that you would only know if you saw the incident report. It should be public information. With that said, maybe it's not a big deal because that detail itself really means nothing. I mean, nothing wrong with using that address. Maybe he really stayed there or received mail there, etc...still, it's just another detail.

UNC down 51 to 40 against Wake Forest midway through the second half. Deacs on a 13 to 2 run. Very entertaining and fun game so far. Game's on ESPNU.

Deacs a bigger player in the ACC than people thought? Them, FSU, GT, ND, Miami, NCSU and Clemson. All teams who could battle for 1 or 2 at-large bids.

Despite what many thought here last year, I felt Wake Forest was a very dangerous team a season ago, especially at Lawrence-Joel Coliseum. They had some very bad losses and a bad overall record, but they were extremely competitive at home, netting wins over ranked NC State and Miami teams as well as playing top-five Duke within 5.

If the Deacs can start to compete on the road, then perhaps they'll compete for one of those last ACC bids. Travis McKie is one of the best players in the conference, and a nice leading man to center a team around.

Jeff Bzdelik has Wake slowly trending upward. Next year, they bring in a top 15 point guard and top 50 overall player in the class of 2014 in Shelton Mitchell.

More of a small gathering of friends on the middle of the floor. Very sad. Not sure if that says more about the state of Wake Forest's program in recent seasons or North Carolina's.

I think the concept of storming the court for a win like this is kind of pathetic. Maybe the Deacs haven't been that good for a while and Carolina is a historical power, but man...they've been a borderline top 20-25 team this year that hasn't had the greatest of years. Save that stuff for truly impressive wins.

Wake hadn't beat Carolina at home in 4 years

Still a pathetic reason to storm the court and Wake should be ashamed. You beat the 19th ranked team in country. A team who is more Jekyll and Hyde than any team I can remember and you storm the court? Shame on you.

So what does it say about Dook's program that ND had people rush the court?

I was referring more to the size of the rush at Wake. As in, what does such a thinly scattered meeting of people at center court say about the relevance of that particular win. More of an observation on the ratio of rush size to importance factor of a victory than anything.

Haha at least they have some semblance of a student section. At BG games I just go sit at mid court a few rows up for every game cause no one is literally there. The Central Catholic games I go to have more people than BGSU

Yeah. Comparing a MAC school (any MAC school) to a major-conference team as far as what a student section should be is just silly talk.

I was thinking that the timing of the game was a bit odd to boot.
Given Wake is the smallest school in the ACC they don't have much of a student section anyway. I am sure most of the fans were wearing light blue and they weren't storming the court after a loss.

UNC could be on the cusp of starting 0-2 in the ACC, something the young and oft-shaky Heels might not be able to afford. The 8-6 Miami Hurricanes lead 35 to 31 in Chapel Hill with with 14 minutes left in the second half.

Heels on an 8-1 run, though, currently.

'Canes have upped the lead to double digits. They are playing like they're in Coral Gables. Not phased by their surroundings in the least. Jim Larranaga is simply outstanding when it comes to motivating his teams to play beyond their abilities.

The Tar Heels fall to Miami in the Dean Dome. With a trip to the Carrier Dome on Saturday looming, things are looking dark for Carolina. They easily could fall to 0-3 in the ACC, which would give the Heels a 10-6 overall record.

Unfathomable is it that, despite wins over three top five teams this season, Carolina is on the brink of being on the NCAA bubble, if it isn't already.

They are one of the most bizarre teams I've seen in quite some time. They have one of the best (if not the best) collection of wins of about any team out there, but so many bad losses, you about have to think that they have a lot of work to do just to not have those good wins get completely negated by all the upsets. You just don't know what to expect from them from one game to the next.

The headline on ESPN's college basketball page today pretty much hit your post on the head.



Obviously I hate them, but Carolina is going to have to do better than .500 in the ACC in order to get a ticket to the dance IMO. While 8-8 doesn't seem that arduous a task, the Heels are staring down 0-3 right now and the climb from there would be steep.
