In my view Dabo’s plan to start DJ was in fact a head fake providing tactical advantage.


Dec 4, 2022, 11:45 AM

Especially after Dabo’s admission they tried to make the change during the Notre Dame game, I don’t think Dabo ever intended to bring in Cade for merely a series or two.

By holding this bluff thru the first couple of series of the game itself, It nullified any DJ game planning North Carolina had performed on him ensuring Cade would enter as an unknown quantity.

That’s smart coaching.

Wish he has done this a week earlier though.

I also have it on good authority that Rick Barnes

Fooled around with coeds so he could get the Texas gig and that Tommy West threw games because he loved Memphis so much.

Everyone really is playing chess around us.

Agreed. This was a stroke of brilliance. Dabo was playing 3D chess.

Thank you. I forgot about the dimension of time.

Would you have put serious money on Cade coming in


Dec 4, 2022, 11:54 AM

in the first half with the game still well within reach?

You are a better gambler than me if so.

Exactly. That’s why it was such a master stroke.

Fair enough.

Note to self, never engage T3 in sports wagers.

Well, it fooled the vast majority of our more vocal TNet members.

Do you think we intentionally lost to USC in order to give Mack a false sense of security?

Spot on. I got that feeling when we went 3 scores up and it was obvious Brown had challenged them all week to stop the run.

What’s your head-fake theory for the rise in prices for…

…Tampons?

Do you have a bulletin board in your bedroom covered in CDS news clippings?

Even though you’ve insulted me, here’s your answer.


Dec 4, 2022, 12:27 PM

The same things that have frustrated fans this season, the same what could have beens, why nots, anxious moments, etc. have frustrated me too. I just choose to express it differently.

I try not to express myself in a way that denigrates the players or coaches. That’s why I don’t pile on to the in-game Brownell hate posts, or posts that use any deficiencies of our basketball program to take shots at Judge Keller, or use the death of Ella Bresee as troll material to call out hypocrisy ala Judge Keller.

I wish we had gotten Cade in earlier, I wish a lot of things about this season, but folks, what’s done is done.

Our Tigers have a bright future. The roots of the tree are strong. Dabo talked about decades, not games or seasons. I’m excited about the future now. The past serves to teach lessons, but dwelling on it will ruin you.

2024 purple level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I agree but NC’s defense is so bad it wasn’t necessary.


Dec 4, 2022, 12:16 PM

Cade is clearly the guy. He has the full support of his teammates and we can all turn the page now.

The coachspeak gaslighting has worked well with this one.

I have some oceanfront property in Arizona for sale if you're interested.

I’ll check back on that property in a couple of centuries.
