Jimmy V Classic: UConn vs UNC

Completely agree. But always got along well with them arguing about who hates Dook more. Good times.

Duck Fook! Walking with that T-shirt on in Piedmont park during a festival with our UNC close friend was a great memory. That was the day we came back and beat them. Was watching in a bar down there and everyone was pulling for UConn after seeing my shirt.

what a day.

Epic half by Emeka.

"He did not doubt his destiny when Duke was ahead by 8 points with 3 minutes 28 seconds to play.

He does not remember his team's 12-0 run, or how he scored all 18 of his points in the second half, intimidated the Duke shooters and fouled out the three Blue Devils who had pounded him and hounded him into his own foul trouble."
 
Any updates on public ticket sales for Jimmy V? Don’t want to miss that first day they go up!!

And in terms of quotes from opponent coaches this one isn't bad either:

Krzyzewski conceded that it was a devastating way for his team to end a 31-6 season.
''It was a difficult, very difficult,'' he said in a halting voice. "I'm sorry it was such a crushing defeat.''
 
Tickets went on sale Oct 5 last year. Doubt they hit same timeline for 2023 but should be soon.

Because they will lose some games, and the one at Kansas is probably the toughest one on the schedule, given the opponent and venue.

So because Kansas is a tough game you think we will lose to UNC? Thinking we will lose a game is not part of my DNA.

I think there’s a decent chance UNC absolutely sucks this year, hoping we beat the s*** out of them. No dept and I question their stars

You misunderstood. My post to which you originally replied was referring to Kansas. I think we will beat UNC. (Doomed.)

Come on man. I don't. UConn is a very bad matchup for them with size that can match theirs and much better depth. That's going to be a hell of a game. I don't think our guys will be intimidated by playing at AFH after the tournament run last year.

Hope you're right! I'm just hedging emotionally more than anything else.

Anybody on either side of that game that is truly confident they will win, is deluding themselves.
 
Has anyone gotten confirmation from the ticket office that there will be an allotment of tickets available for the Jimmy V made available for donors?

It's really a toss up. Our guys wont be intimidated, agreed. And we do have better depth. But usually AFH has 3 extra players wearing zebra stripes which can be discouraging for a road team. But Im more hopeful this year. I think we are beginning to see the worm turn for the perception of Kansas, and that maybe the institutional enabling of the rug doctor and his merry band of criminals is on the way out. Rome wasn't built in a day, but we gotta start somewhere.
 
tossup between MSU and KU for the most overrated team in america right now but ill give it to KU by virtue of being preseason #1.

they have ZERO good 3 point shooters in their projected starting lineup of harris, jackson, mcullar, adams, and dickinson. timberlake is their only shooter off the bench. the loss of morris might really hurt.

just pack the paint and double dickinson.

We won’t have to double dickinson

Just heard back from the ticket office and the email should be going out this week or early next week.

If we bring BE refs with us, it could be bad.

So which is it? @August_West assured us the zebras were on the KU side?

Refs won't decide it. Fans will certainly be loud. But Hurley will have them ready. My friend in KC can't get tickets because none of the season ticket holders who he gets them from are willing to part with them. So it remains to be seen if I can get to this one.
 
Presale begins tomorrow at 12pm est until 11am on Thursday. Public sale will begin at 12PM Thursday.

This thread is about the UNC game?

Yeah I’m a freaking crazy unicorn saying kansas gets the biggest home cooking in college sports . No one else has ever contended that!

They don’t. Duke probably does. The Pitino Louisville teams definitely did. I’m sure UConn haters think we do. AFH is probably the best home crowd in the sport, has more inmpact than the refs. I’m assuming BE refs anyway. That’s probably worse for us.
