Around SBN: Which Players Will Join The 3,000-Hit Club?

Tuesday Items

-- Congratulations to Duke.  And kudos to Brian Zoubek, of all people, who proved surprisingly valuable down the stretch.  Y'know, I thought I'd grown numb to the success of our neighbors, but it's tough having to deal with this championship crap for two consecutive years.

-- Oliver Purnell is leaving Clemson for DePaul. Maybe he realized he was never going to break through in the ACC, not that the task is any easier in the Big East.

-- Boston College is set to hire Cornell's Steve Donahue.  It'll be interesting to see if Donahue's BC teams are as three-happy as his Cornell squads.  Whatever happens to that end, it's a good bet that BC remains a deliberate half-court team. 

-- Ooh, "also considered!" Movin' on up!

-- Billy Randy wouldn't do that, man.

-- Baseball America recaps State's series win over UVA.

-- Kickoff times for the UCF and ECU football games have been set.  Both games will be televised by the CBS College Sports Network, whatever that is.  First class operation, I'm sure.

-- Matt Hill was named Golf Week's Player of the Week for beating the shit out of Hootie & The Blowfish.  

-- UNC announces the Chick-fil-a Challenge, which will require participants to run two miles to the restaurant, eat 12 nuggets, and run back.  Twelve nuggets? What kind of a challenge is that?

is that UNC thing

in response to State’s donut run? kind of reminds me of Stossel’s green phone for Al Gore in response to Glenn Beck’s long standing red phone for the White House.

one thing i know, is if'n

I guess if a team

that starts lance thomas and brian zoubek can win a national title, there is hope for us all.

C'mon UNC

That’s lame. 12 nuggets is infinitely easier to down than 12 glazed donuts. Thanks for stealing our idea though.

So they don't project us in the top 96 next year?

Sid should be seeking employment if we miss a 64-team field… there will be torches and pitchforks if we miss a 96-team field…

another knock on Sid.

i am looking at the Washington Post’s all met teams for the boys and girls. Kelly got first teamer Myisha Goodwin, but Sid, who is from this area, got none while Duke got two first teamers and UNC got one. while i appreciate that Sid is getting the best of Georgia, one would think that with his assistant and himself being from the D.C. area, he would tap into the talent here.

i might add that

Quinn Cook, the Wahington Post’s player of the year, is a junior and attends DeMatha. we all know that Sid and Strickland went to school at DeMatha and played under Morgan Wooten. so……

the only thing that zoubek is good for is flopping

--Gerald Wallace is the best player the Bobcats will have..... EVER
