DICK "the Dukie" VITALE FORECASTS UNC’s 2007-08 SEASON (An Allenish like Parody Comment)

Hey hoops fans, today’s topic is a prognostication for UNC men’s basketball in 2007-08.

They’re awesome baby, returning every double-digit scorer from last year’s team (except Brandon Wright – a Rolls Roycer) - all three of them – a team trifecta baby! Unfortunately, they lack a strong all-Windex-performer; none of them, including superstar Psycho T, averaged rebounding in double-digits in ‘07. None have a true trifecta average approaching 40% or more.

OH baby, don’t forget what a juggernaut of a team UNC’s big dogs were last season before slumping like a damp dish rag and losing 4 of its last 8 regular season games and then choking in the East regional final to Georgetown. They had scored over a hundred points against such NCAA basketball stalwarts as Sacred Heart, Garner-Webb, and Florida Atlantic. This pattern continues in 2007-08 as they bring resounding ”W’s” with decisive victories over such legendary powerhouses as Iona, S.C. State, and Penn.

UNC is “flying under the radar” with an early season #1 ranking earned with these cream puff delights while the rest of the league is entertaining, often defeating or playing close, nationally ranked teams like Marquette, Wisconsin, Indiana, Vanderbilt, Villanova, Gonzaga and even stalwart Butler.

OH baby! Ol’Roy is without a recruiting class this year. He is so confident that he has a lone freshman (a red shirt diaper dandy) on the roster; regrettably, he doesn’t eat Big Macs; those guys are with the Dukies up Tar Heel road in Durham.

OH baby! How lucky Roy was in lassoing such a special player like the space eater Psycho T, the big, bug-eyed kid from Poplar Bluff, MO who resembles a choirboy with a buzz cut. Most don’t realize that he played for a high school team in MO whose mascot is a mule (sic jackass), the infertile offspring of male ass and a female horse. When he learned that Roy’s mascot was a goat, he thought he had accepted a scholarship to either N.C. State or Clemson! With Hansbrough, crazy things happen. Hee-haw!!!

Psycho T can be a real prime time player and the engine for UNC if he mellows, avoids a punch in the nose, and plays with a Christian Laettner passion for the game.

The bottom line here is it won’t be too much of a stretch to see the Heels return to the Final Four in 2008. Ol’Roy is too sly of a coach to have a highly rated team, with a few, nationally acclaimed high school stars, lose a trifecta and miss the Final Four three years in a row.

Holy cow! Let’s don’t forget the Dukies!

UNC may struggle due to a lack of Big Mac munchers, but Ol’Roy and venerable Coach K have each won 169 games over the last six seasons. Now that’s keeping company with royalty baby!

(PS: Tyler should earn ACC Player of the Year honors (no parody intended). Prognostication – he’s a nice guy and he’ll be back for year 4).

Note: The Howard Cosell of college basketball, Richard Vitale, had his ESPN contract extended another 7 years thru 2013.
