I've said it before and I'll say it again because it's true and I miss him as an assistant coach for bigs - Danny Manning is good.

It's been clear to me for about a year but some Wake fans were questioning him even earlier this season, which is dumb.

So that was State's first win at Duke since 1995. Of course, they went off home-and-home with them after the mid-2000s expansion, but that's still a lot of games.

I don't get how a team capable of this and the VT game is also capable of losing to...pretty much everyone else in the conference. But for tonight at least, there's this (and it might even be better for not counting):

it tends to pick up as the season goes on, no? or maybe it's just in decline. definitely not a vintage year for college ball so far.

Wake Forest is Good though.

Also, Down With Kentucky.

People are saying MANNING CAN'T FINISH GAMES, HE'S A TERRIBLE IN GAME COACH completely disregarding:

-He's been a HC for five years period.
-Is getting out-coached by HOF-ers, HOF proteges, or one level below HOF-ers with a roster he's still building and against a schedule no coach would look forward to facing

It's so tiring and stupiid.

Ever since Danny Manning left Kansas, Kansas's post defenders went from Player of the Year candidates to... pretty good but not transcendent. He's legit a great developer and coach, and I wonder who these WF fans are because they seem pretty detached from how they were doing before.

I could post a dissertation on how/why Wake fans get that way and where the idiocy comes from but it's just a mess.

Post it because I need something to distract me from this mess.

Being a Wake Forest fan is an odd proposition. You go to a small school, one of the smallest in D1, with a lot of legacies and a very familial feel. Wake fans, depending on the circumstance, alternate between "We're a small school and will never see sustained success" and an inflated sense of worth on the back of moderately prestigious tradition (in basketball). What this leads to is an infuriating mixture of fatalistic doubt that things will ever get better and a quasi-entiitled shortsighted need for instant gratification with healthy doses of infighting and sanctimonious "I told you so"-ing from long-time fans.

Nahhh but they're talking about us maybe missing the tourney which no loving way and how the team was "lazy" in the second half. They were tired on D but Christ, that's gonna happen when your two stars are sophomores playing against seniors and grad transfers on 5 days rest while your stars played 30+ minutes each the night before. And it was still close FFS.

From general observations and talking with the guy who runs Backing the Pack, I have no idea how any of y'all SBNation or other semi-official blogging types handle the teeming masses of the college sports world. So many of them are just the absolute worst.
