I hope Blue Man is right about Hammond. Archie has said that he's one of the best recruits he's ever got. I think we all need to stop pissing at each other about where we are as a program right now and how we got here. All that matters is where we go from here. The last 2 years are history, let's l...

All due respect, FTs have been a problem since the Cox days. Even under DH - the big men weren't great at at (to paraphrase Bill Koch, if Langevine could hit FTs and have a better outside shot he would have been at Duke or UNC).
