He is kind of a cocky asshole, though. He announces his school decision via some massive Skype press conference, goes around calling himself "Black Falcon" and wearing a shirt around campus that says "I'm That Dude" and then goes on to make what, 25% of his shots on the season? He deserves everything he gets.

lol, i didn't hear about the black falcon or i'm that dude.

actually Harrow was recognized as the BIGGEST SNUB nationwide receiving press in print, online and on air; not just on SFN or PP or TWW

come on gunzz.

come on.

I have absolutely no sympathy for that asshole, aside from some of the personal insults that have been leveled.

I think Tim Hall of 99.9 wrote an article or did a radio segment that said something to this effect (which sums up the situation nicely):

Players go to unc to win and to be in the national spotlight. If they don't want the scrutiny and consistently high expectations that come along with all that, then they don't need to be at the school anymore (or the school needs to fade from the national stage ). You can't bask in the glow of hype, fail to perform, and then complain about the criticism as if it's completely unwarranted.

12/1/2010 12:02:24 PM

i hadn't heard about "black falcon" or "i'm that dude" either.

ok, now i'm starting to dislike the guy a little (if it's true).

i'm not trolling. just b/c it was written on highschoolhoop.com doesn't make it true.

it's similar to how just b/c you say you got an email about it doesn't make it true.

12/1/2010 12:44:42 PM

lol - lets just point out one link on many, many pages

and back to the email again - u mad b/c i wont share with you? sorry bffsimon

a few, select users can attest to whats in that email sorry you were not included

12/1/2010 12:49:00 PM

with your track record of being right i am very disappointed to not be privy to your email chain.

very disappointed.

also, let's look at these links:

highschoolhoop
highschoolhoop
dimemag
dimemag
dimemag
wolfpackhoops
statefansnationforums
dukebasketballreport
blogs.ajc.com
mbd.scout.com

not a single legit thing on there. the only thing close is the ajc blog, but given that he is from atlanta that's just as bad as wolfpackhoops. don't get me wrong, those may be fine BLOGS (well, dbr is anyway), but they're BLOGS, not "nationwide press in print".

until you go through at least 10 pages on google and post the links im just not going to continue with you on this argument

this is from page 10.

you believe this helps your case?

can you just admit that the national college basketball following is not synonymous with SFN forums and be done?

12/1/2010 1:22:52 PM

gunzz are you fucking joking? do you even read what you post?

both of those articles mention harrow in one section, and then mention virginia tech being snubbed for the ncaa tournament in a different section.

i admire you for admitting that you weren't 100% correct, but please, admit that you are 100% wrong. i'll be here all day.

UNC is playing their best game of the year, barnes is coming alive, and UK is in foul trouble

did beu just try and post something from his gmail?

12/4/2010 1:31:40 PM

yes

12/4/2010 1:41:20 PM

UNC plays their best half of the year... still losing

12/4/2010 1:43:11 PM

that was a terrible charging call

12/4/2010 2:02:57 PM

The score should be 57-51 they just awarded UNC UK's points I frickin hate CBS announcing UNC games.

[Edited on December 4, 2010 at 2:08 PM. Reason : 57 not 58]

12/4/2010 2:05:30 PM

Kentucky scored and they gave UNC 2 points before that timeout

12/4/2010 2:05:39 PM

ABC

lets go Wildcats... lets go!

12/4/2010 2:09:05 PM

Henson airballed two free throws in a row earlier

12/4/2010 2:09:17 PM

He just airballed a layup.

AHAHAHA

12/4/2010 2:16:01 PM

^ I believe an airball doesn't touch the rim. His layup clearly did... but he laid it up weak and deserved to miss it.

He's going to beast us down low though...

12/4/2010 2:17:11 PM

I didn't see it touch the rim.

Therefore, airball layup. Henson sucks. AHAHAHAHHAHAHA.

KEEP THE SPIRIT!

12/4/2010 2:19:01 PM

Barnes having trouble finishing in traffic. I guess that play is just for Zeller/Henson tip ins at this point.

12/4/2010 2:20:31 PM

roy williams looks like he's only coaching half the time

12/4/2010 2:20:57 PM

Carolina beats the only teams as overrated as themselves

12/4/2010 2:55:24 PM

i guess unc won

12/4/2010 2:56:48 PM

Top 5 in the country now I'm sure!!

12/4/2010 2:59:23 PM

Barnes always looks like he just smelled a fart.

12/4/2010 3:01:18 PM

Carolina wins on a signature bullshit foul call at the end god I hate them. UK steals the ball and instead they whistle a foul and send zoeller to the line down 1 to give them the lead with 40 seconds left.

Barnes with another epic 2nd half meltdown though, that guy is the most overrated player I've ever seen.

12/4/2010 3:20:47 PM

I don't think I can take another year of being sweeped by these fuckheads

12/4/2010 3:36:22 PM

suspend amac for the jinx

12/4/2010 4:07:26 PM

12/4/2010 4:09:23 PM

They're definitely not top 10...but they are top 25 when they play average but also have the talent to play a lot better. I just hope they don't continue to get their shit together or they'll probably sweep us again.
