  1. As much as it pains me as a UNC fan to say….. but fair play to Duke. They laid the smackdown on us. We don't have the size to matchup with them right now.

  2. Unc fan… congratulations to duke and scheyer….
    Scheyer is a great coach, well spoken, very bright…was a great role player and always clean cut….
    Showed class tonight, because duke could have won by 40 ,if scheyer wanted them to….
    Duke is in great hands for the next 25 or so years..
    Coach K #2…lol…

  3. I have been a UNC basketball fan for 60 years. Make any comments, excuses, etc. There are many players that play sports, but if you not make Defense your number one goal/objective; you will never be a Champion!!! Therefore, compile all the analytics you can mustard and I will take Defense and win championships every time. Hubert, start emphasizing Defense…. you will last longer as a coach.

  4. Great win but am I really the only Duke fan to find that 18-2 Carolina run from the 9 minute mark to the 3 1/2 minute mark concerning? I know we still had the game in hand but that was one ugly stretch of basketball that i am sure will give the Tar Heels some reason to believe when we play them at their place.

  5. Flagg will be terrible in the NBA watch‼️ How many times we have to hear about the next Larry Bird?‼️It Ain't happened in almost 50yrs‼️

  6. As a UNC fan, I am not overly embarrassed about this particular loss, because Duke is pretty much unstoppable this year, and not much of anyone has been able to beat them. I have a much bigger problem with the losses to Stanford and Pittsburg (both of which seemed to be due to lack of effort and poor coaching choices), needing overtime just to beat BC (again, because of coaching mistakes and just being sloppy and not caring), etc.

  7. My college teammates dad played for UNC and he thought the Tarheels were the greatest thing since sliced bread…he thought he was too. He never played and ended up quitting…and plying rec at a D2…him and his dad sucked…and now UNC sucks…hilarious 😅

  8. Embarrassing time to be a Tar Heel fan .. absolutely NO REASON we shouldn’t be rolling out some of the best talent and built teams in the country .. with that branding and everything else that comes along w it we should have a competitive team every year .. this is getting old, changed needed in chapel hill ! This is unc not fkng Virginia, Clemson, or Pitt .. no offense but we know the deal in bball
