LOL. My sister and BIL went to Villanova. They're insufferable.

March 2, 1974: UNC scores 8 points in the final 17 seconds of regulation against Duke, capped by Walter Davis' 30-foot bank shot from the wing as time expired. The Tar Heels went on to win the game in overtime, 96-92

3 pointers ruined the game.
Put it into a realm similar to the DH realm of MLB.

- Wright said no
- Few is unavailable for comment until Tuesday
- Stevens hasn’t outright said no

Better to be the 2nd guy. The first guy will NEVER meet expectations set by memory of Roy.
Second guy will be compared more to the first guy.

The next guy is given a gift considering when Roy retired. If he had done so in 2017, impossible to follow. Not necessarily the case now. But who knows.

I don’t like 3 pointers and I don’t like the shot clock. Love it or hate it I loved watching Phil Ford run the Four Corner’s Offense.

I would much rather have 3-pointers than no shot clock. Watching a Four Corners game was worse than watching paint dry.

DHs take a lot of strategy out of the game. I am a traditionalist - I am in favor of trying to speed up the game, but I still like making them through 4 balls to intentionally walk someone. Every once in a while, they screw up and throw it to the backstop.
