You're not alone -- I completely forgot as well!

Time to fire up the Tony Packo's chili and grab some cold beer.

I think the tip is at 6:07PM.

BTW - One interesting sidenote about this game. Our assistant Doug Wojick(soon to be Tulsa head coach) used to be UNC's assistant under Doherty.

Well even though I am a Dukie, I am sitting here waiting on the tip off to pull for Carolina, unlike most Dukies.

"Carolina born, Carolina Bred"! (Although I am a Jersey Transplant now :( )

"I'd Rather be in Carolina", as my old friend the "General" would say! Go Heels!

Hi Howlin! Thanks for the ping here!

Can you help me with something? I went to the Fairgrounds today to go the Tar Heels Gem show. My son asked me what Tar Heel is.

I had to tell him- I do not know. I would guess it has to do with the fact that our shoes are almost covered with mud when we come inside the house. He was not satisfied with that answer.

Can you help this poor new NC mom out?

In 1629, King Charles I of England "erected into a province," all the land from Albemarle Sound on the north to the St. John's River on the south, which he directed should be called Carolina. The word Carolina is from the word Carolus, the Latin form of Charles.

When Carolina was divided in 1710, the southern part was called South Carolina and the northern, or older settlement, North Carolina. From this came the nickname the "Old North State." Historians have recorded that the principal products during the early history of North Carolina were "tar, pitch, and turpentine." It was during one of the fiercest battles of the War Between the States, so the story goes, that the column supporting the North Carolina troops was driven from the field. After the battle the North Carolinians, who had successfully fought it out alone, were greeted from the passing derelict regiment with the question: "Any more tar down in the Old North State, boys?" Quick as a flash came the answer: "No, not a bit, old Jeff's bought it all up." "Is that so; what is he going to do with it?" was asked. "He's going to put on you-un's heels to make you stick better in the next fight." Creecy relates that General Lee, upon hearing of the incident, said: "God bless the Tar Heel boys," and from that they took the name (Adapted from Grandfather Tales of North Carolina by R.B. Creecy and Histories of North Carolina Regiments, Vol. III, by Walter Clark).
