It is nearly midnight. Brendan Haywood's foul shots with 1.2 seconds to play were the difference in North Carolina's 85-83 victory against Duke. The drama has left Cameron Indoor Stadium, but the upraised fists remain. Several dozen Duke students are on the floor, standing silently with fists pointed toward the ceiling. "I don't think we're going to leave until every North Carolina person is out of the stadium," says Stephanie Spalding, a senior from Sarasota, Fla. "They just need to show us respect."

Tip: less is better
For example, instead of 'Chris Duhon's ridiculous quotes', just use 'Duhon'. And just type 'Coach K' if you want to see all entries about the Rat.

William Avery -
Avery had couple good seasons at Duke and left early for the NBA. This was against Coach K's wishes.
Apparently, it wasn't a very good 'split'. This is what Avery's mother said about Coach K in in an article. (scroll)
"Coach K is selfish," said Simonton, WILLIAM AVERY's mother. "He wants what's best for him. He says it's for the players. It's not."
There was a famous Curry Kirkpatrick article about K cursing William's mother (if you have a copy of this please submit it. Here is an article from a local Georgia newspaper on Avery's departure:
The early focus of the story, written by former Sports Illustrated writer Curry Kirkpatrick, is that Blue Devil basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski had a big disagreement with Avery and his mother, Terri Simonton, in April before Avery announced he was leaving.
Reportedly, Krzyzewski used an expletive to tell Simonton that her son was going to mess up his program. She said Krzyzewski was 'rude, personal.'
'Coach K is selfish,' Simonton told ESPN The Magazine. 'He talks about a so-called close Duke family. But he just wants to protect his program. He lied to us about where William would go in the draft. Late in the first round? Maybe even second round? Come on. Even I could pick up the papers and read he was going earlier than that.'
