What's this?

I agree on basketball, I was just giving my observation on the draft.

I do think they go more crazy over the SEC during the NFL Draft than the ACC for the NBA draft.

Like I said the ACC was crushing it and it took them quite a while to even mention the ACC and they did not harp on it like they do the SEC during the NFL draft. Prospects and prospects parents are sitting at home watching that and making choices off of it. My point is to keep the heat on ESPN so that they don't show so much favoritism to the first child. I know we have to earn our way, but when we do, talk about the same way you do with the SEC and the football draft.

Have you heard any reason as to why Kanell was fired? -- VTHokie2000 06/21/2019 1:06PM

No. I say fired, but it was a layoff of over 100 people. -- HOO86 06/21/2019 3:12PM

It is possible that the ACC may be to blamed (or partially blamed) -- VTHokie2000 06/21/2019 10:33AM
