Durham/Chapel Hill has more titles per square mile than any other area in the US.
edit: Kentucky has 7? OK, never mind. However, I consider Duke under Kryzyzewski to be the best program around.

North Carolina is the number one team in the country right now for very good reason. They have a storied history, great traditions, and have been very successful through the years. It's definitely one of the most prestigious programs in the country.
And a Duke fan says this. I've been a fan of Coach K and his team ever since I visited the Duke campus when I was in 7th grade.

OK, UCLA won 10 championships in 12 years. Duke hasn't done that yet. However, they're still pretty good.
Those preseason rankings are nearly useless. I'll grant you, Carolina's looking good, but...I'm not filling out my sheet of guesses for NCAA tournament rounds yet. I've been so disappointed in past years.

It was earlier than 88, but yeah that's why I was there. Let's see...it would have been 85 I guess. I imagine quite a few 'rackers were.
My daughter missed her opportunity, she was supposed to take the SAT during the year I was sick with cancer, and with my chemo treatments and all that took place we missed it - she never got to take it. I was so upset, because I really enjoyed that experience and wanted her to have it too.

Going back, I saw this cool story online about a bunch of football players who "fixed" it so that each would lose the title of Homecoming King to a truly deserving classmate. Football players give up Homecoming Title
On other another note, my brother is going slightly out of his mind in anticipation for the upcoming LSU game. And my high school alma mater won state this past weekend making them the 2007 Texas 5A Div II State Champions. They've also been ranked in the top 5 nationally.
I watched a recording of the game last night while wrapping Christmas presents. I got teary-eyed seeing all the fans dressed in their red and I missed there. Even for non-players, sometimes sports can really rally a community and bring people closer together.

I don't remember when I did TIP, but I was there.
It does seem rather weird for somebody to be talking up UNC's basketball program. From where I sit, it looks rather overshadowed by the surrounding universities.

@ half the people in this thread. I don't recall seeing Belle ask for parenting advice in this thread, but people think it's cool to post, essentially, "Oh, your kid will get crippled! Or he'll get staph!"
Jeez. Gimme a break.
