Are you thinking or just being a dumbass? The better person would have been Caron Butler or Allen Iverson, who were convicted felons in high school. Or if you please Shelden Williams who was charged with a felony but not conivcted..

Kidnapping?

What the hell...

3/27/2007 10:02:10 PM

ok, well at least it went public in the offseason

and the NIT might as well be the offseason, if we're talking about national exposure and the 'who gives a damn factor', especially the early rounds

3/27/2007 10:02:57 PM

In case you kids have missed it, this thread is a zero-tolerance bullshit zone... take the wise cracks to chit chat.

What's really funny is that they(WRAL) aren't intelligent enough to detect it on their own. And they probably have journalism degrees which at least implies a basic understanding of literary tools, like sarcasm. Probably all went to UNC.

" CarolinaGirl441 All-American (3/27/07 10:59:37 pm) Reply Re: This can't be good pub I agree with those who have said we shouldn't do the State-like thing and make fun. Just be sure to have that one in your back pocket if State fans bring up "rap" sheets (as if they don't have one of their own). They have always acted like our players are innocent until proven guilty; it is somewhat amusing to see their tapdance now that it's one of their own. But... We're Caroilna. We're better than that. Besides, Lowe seems like a good guy and I wouldn't wish this on anyone, especially such a serious charge."

That's a fine UNC education right there, I think she was trying to say the opposite of what she did about the innocent before guilty part, but maybe she was just complimenting us. And of course there's the 'we're better than everyone' pompous elitist attitude. And I'm pretty sure nobody's tapdancing here. It is what it is, people make mistakes, I'm not sure how much of this should be taken out on Coach Lowe though.

ok somebody please expand on what is probably a rumor but I can't find anywhere else,

did a carolina player sell his tickets to one of the games for $500???


and if so why can I not find it ANYWHERE.
you'd think that as badly as we got burned for valvano's players mess ups that this would be right up our alley to bring to the forefront but I haven't seen it anywhere which leads me to believe that is just a rumor

that was also a serious post.

Lawson was RUMORED to. It's stupid and ridiculous to speculate though.

90% of the UNC fans are being respectable. Every fanbase has 10% idiots.. we, of all fanbases, should realize we can't hold that 10% against them...

most of the racist shit on here was from the same one or two posters and that didn't stop them from making generalizations about our entire fanbase and calling WRAL.

Thanks.

yep

3/27/2007 10:37:18 PM

WTF

You know that kid was livin' good. What tool goes and does that w/ all the money in the world? Very bad PR for NCSU, and extremely embarassing for Sid. I bet Sid bangs that kid's head against a pole.

3/27/2007 10:38:31 PM

nahh... WRAL has already beat off 3 times to the thread in Chit Chat, that's where they would get their "story" anyways....

3/27/2007 10:39:05 PM

I just hope he gives the kid the same look he gives Gavin Grant when he turns the ball over like a dumbass...the "ARE YOU KIDDING ME" look right before he beats him to a fine pulp.

all that optimism i had for the program is hurting right about now. can't wait to see what this does to recruiting, and whether or not gonzalez signs

3/27/2007 11:16:18 PM

you guys are really freaking out WAY too much about this affecting recruiting. sidney will be around his players more during the year than he will be with his son who goes to greensboro (well, went to greensboro )

3/27/2007 11:18:40 PM

Sid will deal with this in the professional demeanor it deserves just like the Philadelphia Eagles Coach whose son was a heroin crack fein....Sidney atleast with the season over you can address your kids issues and let him know that you are there for him(and yes I would say this demands a major ass beating)-hey just saying it b/c had I even thought of doing something so stupid, I wouldnt even of had the police call my folks b/c my parents would of killed me theirselves....


and just coming from someone who was raised in a family where shit was not taken lightly, and being disciplined did not mean 'time-out'....Sidney I suggest you go and beat his ASS, adn then let the law deal with it accordingly..I SUPPORT you adn continue to support you and everything you stand for...everyone has fuck-ups in their family, and I know with the support of God, your family and friends -that you will deal with this accordingly.

-MUCH SUCCESS in the future Coach and GOD Bless,

3/27/2007 11:20:51 PM

nobody wants to see calls for sidney to resign over his GROWN 21 YR OLD son's legal problems

these are serious charges and sidney has enough problems to deal with without having to hear calls for him to resign

it isnt like he is responsible for his every move

3/27/2007 11:22:07 PM

i think it would hurt a bit more if his son still lived at home and sidney would have him home most of the time, but this happened outside of sidneys watch
