Subject: Situation at NC State...from Chapel Hill
Organization: University of North Carolina Extended Bulletin Board Service
Date: Tue, 12 Jan 1993 20:13:27 GMT

So far, the only rumblings I've heard from Raleigh about Les Robinson are
on the same scale as the rumbling heard whenever Dick Sheridan loses a game.


State's AD, Todd Turner, isn't the kind of guy who's going to fire Les because
he's had some bad luck.  And he won't cave into the Wolfpack Club if they
get rowdy, either.


However, the one thing to consider here is that State desperately wants to
build a multi-purpose arena that's bigger and better than the one over in
hated Chapel Hill.  To make that arena work, State has to have a good
basketball team.  If plans for that arena get moving and State's not
improving,then Les might be in some trouble.


I like Les.  He's a native West Virginia boy like me and a good guy.  I
believe he was the only ACC coach to go to Dean Smith's father's funeral
last year, which was a very nice gesture.

Les is a good coach who is concerned about his players improving and getting
an education.  However, now is not the best time to try and rebuild a program
given the strength of Duke and Carolina.  Les' situation was rare in that
he inherited a program with good players in the system, but the circumstances
dictated he couldn't recruit well for a couple of years.  Plus, the lingering
stigma of the "Personal Fouls" charges and such make recruiting difficult.

Also, I wonder if having ex-Carolina player Buzz Peterson as an assistant
coach is a help or a burden.  From all I've heard, he's a good coach and
recruiter, but if a kid is thinking, "Why should I go to State when ol'
Buzz here went to Carolina?", who knows what will happen.


I'm hoping that Les and the Wolfpack can pull out 4 wins (I thought 6 before
the season, but that's asking too much now), avoid the ACC cellar, and get
ready to recruit.  State is in an excellent position to recruit next season.

If you count 3 ACC tourney games, yes.

But look at the 1991 NCAA Championship route:   

	1st and 2nd Rounds	Metrodome, Minneapolis, MN
	3rd and 4th Rounds	Silverdome, Pontiac, MI
	Final Four		Hoosierdome, Indianapolis

Closer to YOUR backyard than ours.

Well, in the last five years Duke has been a #1 seed a grand total
of once.  There is also plenty of seeding done to keep teams close
to home.  Let me use UMASS!!! as an example.  And is it unfair to
schedule the Final Four for Charlotte in '94 just because UNC and
Duke have a good shot at going?

And in 1988, Duke (as a #2 seed) played in the Smith Center in
front of a quite hostile Tar Heel crowd.

Gee, since were on this thread:
  a) How about the pushoff by Martinez on Nover to get a rebound and a put back
     basket and no call was made
  b) Martinez, the hack man, pushing Henderson in the back when he was going up
     for a dunk and no intentional foul was called. They whistled Bailey for one
     in the first half.
  c) Martinez getting away with an obvious travel when he threw up a brick.
  d) How about the pass that because of the wind currents in Freedom Hall took
     a 40 degree turn out of bounds without being touched by anyone :):).
  e) My personal favorite. Henderson gets fouled by who else Martinez, and Jim
     Burr and Jody Sylvester the Cat confer for a second and then one 
     indicates the basket counted and the other indicated it didn't. It wasn't
     until after the first free-throw that we knew the basket didn't count.

I know we can go on but the point is the Kentucky fans have no more right to
gripe than IU fans.

The real key to the game: I think the Kentucky players just wanted it a little
more. They sucked it up when they got tired and they won. Especially Travis
Ford. He's the overall player of the game. No question about it. IU had momemtum
swing there way when they took that 72-68 lead but Travis game down and answered
with a 3 followed by Jamal's 3. 

Everyone questioned IU's game plan but they had no other choice. If we pull
a big man out to get the Kentucky big man setting the screens we leave single
coverage underneath. Yea, Kentucky only gets 2 points but there is a higher
probability that they can draw an IU foul and with our depth we just can't 
risk that. On the other hand, if Kentucky misses there 3's and IU knocks down
75% of their free throws the game is a complete blowout..... Some days it 
works and some days it don't.

Well, nobody's said anything yet so I thought I'd mention that the Gophs
beat Michigan State last night.

Chad Kolander played great defense, denying Peplowski the ball for much of the
game and limiting him to 8 points (and I think Peplowski had 7 turnovers).

It was a pretty rough game.  The refs (Ruck-a-rama was one) let a lot go
on both sides.

Lenard and McDonald both played (recovering from a pulled groin and a
screwy heel, respectively).

Michigan State looks like a good team, but the Gophers stopped them with
defense last night.  Great game.

It's good to have the Big Ten season underway.  Purdue will be the next to fall.

I believe these players were drafted two years ago, in which case the ISU

My personal opinion is that they can say whatever they want on the 
court/field, but off the court/field trash talking is quite unecessary 
(wouldn't be prudent).

But I'm not a member of the NCAA.  I figure it's nobody else's business.

 I don't agree with this at all. He had some *big* baskets that kept
Arizona in the game and near the end (excluding the final minute and a
half) was about 3/4's of the Arizona offense. He ended up with 27
points and followed it up with what 29? against USC or was it 27? I'd
say that he is making his mark as a premier player in the country
at this point...

The passing was a bit of a shocker for me - he actually looked like he
meant to do it too...

He looked good in the first half and then just fell off - I was blaming the
UCLA offense for not getting him the ball but I could be wrong...

He got kicked out of the NBA (or suspeneded, whatever) for a violation of

	Yes, yes, it does have a unique taste. But it AIN'T chili. It
is made by greeks or yugoslavs in Cincinnati, who do not put any chili
powder in at all. It is not spicy hot and any self-respectin'
Southwesterner would rather spit it out than eat it!!
	For the record, there was a Cincinnati "chili" parlor in
Bloomington for a while. But it quickly failed in the face of our
thousands of pizza and chinese joints.
	Remind me again why we want any Cincinnati players. We are
experiencing something of a tidal wave from southern California. Any
player from Cinci better be pretty damn good to get in.

Someone posted earlier wondering if Duke had played, and another responded
that Duke had not played, but WOULD win on Sunday against Georgia Tech!
I love it when someone above sees to it that these people get theirs, 
congratulations to Tech for the 80-79 win!  Tech led by as much as 15, and
Duke finally took the lead for the first time in the 60's.  The score bounced
for a while, with Tech finally going out to an eight point lead.  Duke
was able to whittle it down from there, but key free throws by Tech sealed 
the victory.  The second to last bucket by Duke was a two-pointer by Hurley,
his feet were BARELY on the three-point arc.  Oh well!  Anyway, there are
now two undefeated teams, UVa and Kentucky.  NCSU game UVa a good game, so
they will not stay undefeated for long if they allow us to do that!  I've
been cheering for Kentucky since last year (you know the game!), I would love
NOTHING more than a final between Duke and Kentucky and a buzzer beater by 
Mashburn to win it.  Anyway, congrats to a fellow engineering school and a

I'm looking at this past Wednesday's rankings and I see Utah State with the
#1 schedule strength followed by East Tennessee State and Cornell. Additionally,
I see Md-Baltimore County and Robert Morris with a higher number.

In terms of top 50 teams they have the highest schedule strength number.
