A friend of mine talked to his AAU coach at a golf tournament and said we'd most likely end up second to Miami

Did they discuss if there would be any cash from Adidas?

His been linked to Miami all along. Our best shot is Gaffney. Still clinging to the September dam breaking and Hurley landing big recruits....hopefully they didn't watch the football game yesterday.

Perhaps you missed the most hilarious newscast where someone pranked the newsroom and somehow this got past all the producers and anyone else who should have recognized and stopped this before it happened after the crash of Asiana Airlines Flight 214 in San Francisco in 2013.

Second? What does it matter if we are second or 95th? If he is coming here, yes or no, only matters.

It is juvenile, but this is one of my favorite vids of all-time. Can you image the conversation she had with her producer and who who ever controls the teleprompter? LMAO

Goes to show what morons work in the talking head business. How is it possible this “ slipped by?” How is it possible the news anchor did not pick up on it while reading it? Either they are all idiots or it was deliberate because they thought it was funny.

I like to imagine right after they figure it out, the station manager calls in the teleprompter guy into his office and says "Jim, you know that I'm going have to let to go." To which the teleprompter guy replies"I know... it was totally worth it."

I have to imagine the teleprompter guy had been given his two weeks notice 8 days earlier, and decided to go out in style.

The anchor is at the mercy of the production team. She has to jump in the river and start swimming. It is their job to tell her a group of gators are up ahead.
They either let her down, or they set her up.

In this case, yes. It was breaking news so she was likely doing a cold read.

But wouldn't you get that something is wrong by the time you get to the second name? We Tu Lo? After Sum Ting Wong?
But maybe it's too hard to get out of it once you start?

Pretty sure they knew it was racist but they did it anyway. This society has normalized racism against Asians so they just brushed under the guise of "joking". If they did the same thing against blacks, all those involved with the incident at that TV station would have been fired.

I also don't get what's so funny about making fun of a potential recruit's heritage. Anyone really think it will help bring him to this school?

I agree. No way that just slipped by.
