Pardon me for the quick hitter, but it's late and I'm a touch exhausted. This is the "Bullets Lite" version. And for those uncertain about the gist, it's my swing through the College Hoops scene in a quick re-cap, generally delivered once a week. All things considered, I'm now fully engaged in this season of College Hoops and you should be as well. I'll move on from there... ACC Wednesday's ...

Posted 1/17/2008 on We Suck at Sports

In my two and a half years in Atlanta, I have had the luxury of being entertained several times by Georgia Tech's basketball team and their head coach, Paul Hewitt. I say entertained because I certainly get a laugh from every game. As I've stated in previous articles, I think Paul Hewitt does not get enough attention for being an overrated coach. How can someone out of the spotlight be ...

They May Be #1, But Will They Finish #1?

Maybe these ...

Jonah Keri writes the college basketball closer (more or less) daily. E-mail your questions, comments or Clarence Ceasar-related memories to jonahkeri@gmail.com . No. 3 with a bullet? So who's the third-best team in the ACC? Clemson's ruined a perfect start with a last-second loss to North Carolina and a stinker against Charlotte. Maryland, N.C.

ACC Weekend Wrap: North Carolina and Boston College Flex Their Muscles

Posted 1/13/2008 on FanHouse

North Carolina 93-NC State 62: The story of the day in the ACC was the Tar Heels' whipping of the Wolfpack. What was expected to be a hard fought game turned into an embarrassing blowout in a hurry . Carolina used a 25-0 first half run to put major distance between them and the Pack. It was so bad that when NC State finally ended the drought ... the fans at the Dean Smith Center gave them ...
