This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

An Analysis by ESPNw's Mechelle Voepel on UNC's Next Steps by dillon77

Story below brings up how UNC administration is at a crossroads with this hire. UNC has the resources (good arena, practice facilities) and there is a new ESPN-backed network coming up in August to show how good or not good the team is. Will they put up or shut up with the selection of the new coach and staff?

Voepel pointed out that any true UNC fan has to be ticked off that:
- Louisville and, in particular, Notre Dame, have just hijacked the league;
- Wes Moore's NC State team is now the triangle's best team, as opposed to UNC or Duke.

Big hire. This one's worth paying attention to...
