LOL.. good comparison..

seriously though, if PC and URI offered me a full ride to play for them.. along with Uconn, Syracuse, etc.. i'm obviously going to the school where i will get the most recognition if i am THAT good. Score 15-20 a game for PC? or 10-15 a game for a top 25 team? I choose the latter.

home is where the heart is.. but making decisions with your heart is normally a flawed decision

Mizzou would beat NC right now. Fact. Let that fag rot in hell for all I care. let his pasty white big nosed bitch ass live in chapel hill forever and play for the raptors when he gets done.

You think Mizzou can outrun the Heels?!?!?! That's just ridiculous....the Heels haven't been at full strength all season and they're still a #1 seed and they will still win the whole damn thing

If Lawson can't go I don't think they make it to the Final 4. If he can then they have to be the favorite

Agree.. lawson is their best player.. I have Oklahoma taking them out in the elite 8.

Ty Lawson is fine...he's not the BEST player on UNC but he makes them a more special team. If Hansbrough was out with an injury it would change a lot of things. The reason he didn't play in the ACC Tourny is because it didn't mean anything to the Heels.

UNC's past couple tournaments have ended because Ellington didn't shoot well and they didn't play good defense. I think they don't rely as much on Wayne to hit the big 3 when Danny Green is starting and playing the majority of the time.

Mizzou doesn't have the depth to outrun the Heels...and this year UNC is only like a 9 man team instead of a full squad of ballers....the losses of Will Graves (Greensboro's own

) and Marcus Ginyard didn't help UNC but it didn't hurt us enough to lose to Mizzou.

And next year the Heels will be even better: Travis and David Wear (C-PF both of them), John Henson (a BEAST 6'10 shot blocking, 3-point shooting SMALL FORWARD), Dexter Strickland (the new PG), and Leslie McDonald (the new SG)

I've only watched the Heels play 3 times this season but in their last game against Duke, Lawson's play was the difference. When he turned it on Duke couldn't keep up. I think the real tests for UNC come from teams like UConn and Pitt with their great inside games. My Aggies should beat BYU but even that isn't a guarantee. I'm also a big Louisville fan. They play GREAT defense but I don't think they can count on their shooters to be as lights out as they have been as of late. I think Gonzaga and UCLA could also make a big splash. For some reason I'm not that sold on Memphis but I think their road to the Final 4 isn't as hard as others.

Are you kidding about depth? Mizzou plays a rotational grind-you-down style that is why they are so great in these back to back playing situations. NC may beat them, but it won't be because they can't outrun them--it will be because they are far more talented.
