Could Raleigh eventually host a Franchise?

No sir....that kind of thinking is from Raleigh elitists....Carolina basketball is very much alive and teams are filling up arenas all across the country...will have 50k + for final four

Dream on.  I didn’t go to a university in the Carolinas but have given up intercollegiate athletics in its entirety since the ruling, and I’m a fanatic/connoisseur of all sports.  Trust me, I’m not alone.

Lolol make sure your opinion lines up with facts before you state it.

Last year's NCAA Tourney was the second most viewed tourney since 1994.

The ruling was in October.  And WILL be the death knell of intercollegiate athletics. I feel like a new man already without them and their hypocritical sleeze.

Your point?

Ratings are only getting stronger for college basketball.

My guess is you are just a salty Wolfpack fan who is upset that Carolina wasn't penalized for an academic issue.

College basketball will continue to thrive just as it has in the past and without Moo U.

I repeat-I have never spent more than a couple days at a time in the Triangle, don’t have immediate family that’s graduated from a Triangle school, and have spent a lifetime enjoying all sports at all levels in all regions of this country and beyond.  My undergraduate degree was earned at a non-ACC school, but one that has won championships in multiple sports at the D1 Level.

I am not alone in saying I’m done with college sports.  It may take a generation or even more to bleed out, but bleed out it will.  The repercussions of the sham ruling are unrecoverable.  Enjoy the inferior product that is “amateur sports”, ill-gotten gain, played under the farce of a so called “association” while it exists I guess.

Bwhahahahahahahahahahah

big bad cheatin UNC and dem fake classus done ruined my love of college sports, I ain’t never goin to watch again.  Boooooohoooooo

hey doofus - the reason one of the top public universities in the country wasn’t “punished” is due to the fact the bullshit that you have been fed from various local and national media outlets for 5+ years was sensationalized garbage and most of it wasn’t true. That has now been proven. The classes were not fake, but were easier than what most of the curriculum at UNC and many athletes that would not be at UNC if not for their athletic talents were directed to take them to help them. If you don’t think that this sort of thing is available at every institution with a prosperous athletic department then I have some ocean front real estate in west va that I’d love for u to take a look at.

Was being kind.  It’s dead.  Especially compared to it’s heyday.  The UNC ruling in October was the final stab wound until it eventually bleeds out.

“College basketball is dead”

this is YOUR opinion and you have no data or evidence to back this claim up. You sound like one of the snowflake reporters that wasted 5 years chasing a ghost at UNC.

Well you are isolated on this one...college football and college basketball are bigger than they have ever been and nobody cares about what the News and Observer says about Carolina

Dude that kid you are arguing with is a moron. Don’t waste your time. Facts and evidence are on UNC’s side and if some snowflake who probably was denied entry to UNC or is duke, UK, or NCSU fan wants to struggle with his own version of reality then so be it. 

A real scandal is the stuff going on with the shoes and paying high school kids to attend certain programs not easy classes.

    • All this hysteria over arthritis.  That might be the most huddle thing ever.
    • Man, it's almost like there is some major systemic problems in our communities making crime, violence and drugs a viable alternative to whatever else. I've lived in Charlotte since 1985.  I've been going downtown pretty readily for the past 20 years.  I will agree, there is a lot more to worry about.  It has gotten worse as the services and social safety has been cut and undermined. There is also a major problem in our homes and families.  Kids don't just decide to jump into gangs and drugs.  They do that when there are no opportunities or hope.  That's not a political statement, but it's straight from the Framework for Understanding Poverty by Ruby Payne. 
    • Roll it over and continue to build smart. If we're lucky, we're competing for a playoff spot this year. Don't spend on leftovers just to "hope" you get lucky.  Keep being smart, acquire assets, let the young guys play, and hope we're on the "in the hunt" graphic late into this season...that's the real goal.  If all goes well, (and Bryce shows he's legit), you can be more all-in next year. Seems like that's been the plan, which he finally have, and we're sticking to it.
