Back story. Our third year freshman center was born in Chicago, but played high school ball somewhere in the land of 10K lakes / L'Étoile du Nord.

Dawson Garcia, who almost transferred here from Marquette, scored 28 points in Minny's road win at tOSU. I wonder if he got to keep the NIL money UNC offered?

Sencire Harris is good to go. If he plays and/or how much he plays remains to be seen. Tune in at 5 to find out.
Goode is cleared and ready to start workouts and progressing into playing time.

They have an elite player in Garcia, plus a pretty good guard (Cooper) and a couple tough big bodies (Battle and Payne). Hopefully Carrington does not have a career night.

I don’t believe you either and you don’t bother me.

But here are the losses and we will check them off as they come:

6 road losses: (Wisconsin, Iowa, Penn State, Indiana, Ohio State, Purdue).

3 of these home games (Indiana, Ohio State, Rutgers, Michigan, Northwestern)

1 loss in BTT.

1 loss in NIT.

11 losses.

I'm excited that you'll be wrong once again.  Best part is the premature victory lap a few weeks ago.  Reminds of your victory lap for Trump on 2020 election night.

😂 good luck with that prediction. There’s about a 2% chance of anything like that happening. Maybe your buddy IVMP/Legends0/Rainman can have a seizure from those numbers and you both can get the fuck outta here together and live happily ever after in prison together.

Mayer 19 & 10.  Rodgers 8 & 8. 

Dom's batting about .050, which is probably better than what he did as a day trader.

I would wage to say what he says regarding the game is more accurate than you or Dom.

I can make my own conclusions to the game. It was a solid win overall. We took care of an inferior team handily like we should have and was to be expected. That’s what good teams do.

And you saying I should be soothing Temp0’s wounds?! I’m usually the one causing those wounds along with… bear with me here… 85% of the board. And then you wonder why you’ve been named Rainman appropriately… smh 🤦🏻‍♂️

Maybe, but you were quick to defend him after his troll/mult/sockpuppet phase, which has launched you into this phase where you think this new name is somehow clever. Do you self-ejaculate when you type it in? Or is that the peak of your cleverness? If so, and you have realized this is the best you can do, then I am both happy and sad for you.

Also, the game shouldn't have been close in the first half. If this is to be an elite team, it needed to clear the 63-point spread.

You really are ignorant.

So do you “self-ejaculate” when you type Temp0?! Is that the best you can do?! If it is then I am both happy and sad for you 😂 yet you’re “clever!” And somehow you think I’m not clever when I very fittingly call you Rainman.

This is like dealing with the dumbest 4-year-old in the neighborhood. You simply repeat back what was said before and then try to praise your own moronic idea.

Lieb did exactly what he was supposed to and play decent defense so we could get to halftime without being down too much. Really not even a close game if our bigger guys aren't in 1st half foul trouble.

Really nice to see the wheels not fall off this thing. At least we get 2nd shots at PSU and NU and only play Purdue once.
