Haha, this joke DID NOT land for shey. He is probably not familiar with the "source material," and in that regard he should consider himself lucky.
in the words of Chris Carter and Keyshawn Johnson.... C'MON MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Your a posser I'll contact my person at Google tomorrow and trust I know them they love me.
The guys that post here are die hard Duke fans.
I do not think u are as in tune as u say. But hey I don't believe a person works for Google but passes up a dream job I mean I know what I do and if K contacted me tomorrow and asked to join the staff I'd give it up in a heart beat. You only get a life time to be great and once offered you grasp it
So that I got this correct:
You work at Google, fly to all the major AAU events, turned down major head coaching jobs , six of you have two private jets, your considered the "coaching Intel mafia", use fake names around circles to get Intel and you meet at the Waffle House?
Then Dennis smith is a Roy Guy? Giles wants to come to Duke to play pick up with Meeks?
I'm sorry I thought we played Kentucky next year which puts Giles against front court players ranked higher then Meeks. I Don't see one big that would start over Giles on UNC's bench.
But back to you.
Really you own a jet and eat at the Waffle House?
You work at Google yet use fake names? So no one can look up the Google employee directory and match your face from an event to the directory?
Granted Google pays well, yet you've turned down major coaching jobs to a sport u love and by major I'm assuming your trying to say blue bloods.
So you didn't want to take the Brad Stevens approach I see.who now coaches the pros making millions.
Do you also tell Santa what all the kids want for Christmas?
Huh, oh cause he baited me lolYou poor bastard...
Agreed. I thought it was pretty funny.Shey don't apologize buddy, it just added to this thread being epic!
absolutely no need to apologize, I had to read it several times and I am still not sure I understand the op and heck, I'm nearly a brain sturgon.
Is that a term for a really smart fish?absolutely no need to apologize, I had to read it several times and I am still not sure I understand the op and heck, I'm nearly a brain sturgon.
yes, a brain sturgon is a smart fish.Is that a term for a really smart fish?

Just going to leave this right here in case you feel like responding to your critics.Long time reader, first post. With all the recruiting "intel" and "coaching mafia's" coming from other boards, I have decided to try and pass along recruiting "intel" for our Duke program. I realize that these recruiting times are tough, but please put your minds at ease in knowing that the "intel" that I receive is better than bacon. I promise that the info I pass along (both good and bad), is directly from my coaching "mafia". My resources are the best and I wake up every morning, well almost every morning, with the latest spot on information.
First off, a little bit about my coaching "mafia"... There are six of us that have turned down head coaching jobs (ala Roy) at elite programs. We know the game of basketball inside and out. All of us use fake names around the AAU circuit to avoid being compromised. We have two jets that allow us to be at all the big high school / AAU events to keep us at the top for receiving our "mafia type" intel. We are a tight knit group to the extreme, hell we even meet at the Waffle House three times a week just to share our "tidbits" and to remind each other as to why we are so passionate about receiving superb "intel". That of course is so we can share it with the greates fanbase in the world. Guys, I can honestly say that when I'm not working at Google, all my time is devoted to tracking down the latest and greatest scoop for our program.
Last night, I received some "intel" that nobody else could possibly have. It was sooo juicy that rather than reveal it to everybody immediately, I decided to sleep on it make sure I was doing the right thing. Even though this isn't the best of news, I am going to share it because I know how much everyone here is relying on me to do so.
Here it goes... Last night the "mafia" and myself were enjoying some scattered and smothered taters with AAU guru Boo Williams. Henry HIll (a member of our mafia), in a rather bold move, brought up the recruitment of Dennis Smith Jr... Not two seconds after DSJ was mentioned, Boo, as only Boo can do (believe me because I know him so well), lets out a monster belch of a burp. The stinch from the belch didn't take long to hit us, and to our dismay the damn thing smelt like nanner pudding with a hint of mixed berries. To us that are "in the know" means three things... 1- DSJ is a "Roy guy", 2- the hint of berries could only mean he wants to play along side the best point guard ever Joel Berry (assuming Berry doesn't go pro being the first overall pick), and 3- DSJ will be attending UNC!
I hate that my first "intel" post results in one of our rivals picking up a nice point guard, but it is what it is. I am looking forward to serving as your eyes and ears on the recruiting trail, and will share the latest and greatest "tidbits" with you guys as we receive them. If any of you have specific requests regarding basketball "intel" just let me know and I will see what is out there to round up. Please don't beat me up too bad if some of the "intel" is in some of our rivals favor. I just want to make sure I am giving the board the most brutally honest information that I can. What do you guys think of my avatar? Pretty creative, right!?!?!?
@TarHeelNation11, @UNC '92, and @coolwaterunc kudos on calling out his nonsense. Ya'll should post over here from time to time since you all seem very reasonable.
Much appreciated. I'm hoping for a good game (as well as a season sweep).Good luck on Saturday (but of course I hope we spoil your senior night!)
LOL this thread is fantastic. I still can't get over the handle name gary4plus3.
Thanks for the invite, but I'll politely decline most likely. This is only like the 3rd time I've visited this board in my life, including twice now in the last 24 hours.
But yeah, hopefully y'all see from page 38 on your "THR comments" thread that there are decent, objective Tar Heel fans (and, shocker, alumni) on THI that can admit when Duke flat out beats us -- which was the case in Chapel Hill. Gutsy performance on y'all's part; epic meltdown on our part. Good luck on Saturday (but of course I hope we spoil your senior night!)
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to shower after my civil exchange with Duke fans![]()
Wow, I finally got banned over there after a nice 4 month run. I think I was a little too cocky by asking what their prediction for UNC wins/losses next season would be. I guess that is a touchy subject, LOL.
Btw, it's nice to hear from moderate UNC faithful from time to time. You're good people.
Not a brain surgeon but have stayed at six Holiday Inn Expressesabsolutely no need to apologize, I had to read it several times and I am still not sure I understand the op and heck, I'm nearly a brain sturgon.
So you have 2 degrees from Carolina and a banner commemorating it?Not a brain surgeon but have stayed at six Holiday Inn Expresses
This thread is GOLD!!Just going to leave this right here in case you feel like responding to your critics.

First of all, I want to apologize for not passing through a little more often. I have been busy as hell. You see, a man of my stature and great intellect as only the great GARY4plus can have, is in high demand. Shortly after I started this thread, I bumped into Steve Kerr while the mafia and I were enjoying a bowl of Bert's Chili (mmm mmm, I love that stuff)... Anyways, we had just wrapped up some recon on a trio of 2 and 3 star prospects that nobody else knew about, so basketball was the topic of conversation. After cluing Steve in to the fact that I was from Georgia (which means I know more basketball), that I know Hubert Davis, that I was the first to let everyone know about the BEAST Joel Berry, and that I could breakdown game film to where my team always wins... he made me an offer that I couldn't turn down. I let him know that I could only help out for a month or two, which he greatly appreciated. Here are some TIDBITS AND STUFF from my time with him...
Guys as you can see with your own eyes, I've got the Warrior offense rolling. All it took was the coaching staff and fan base to listen to me. After I showed Steve how much Hubert helped out the North Carolina Tar Heels with their three ball, he allowed me to bring in that outside assassin for a few days, and we quickly turned around the 3pt.percentage. As you can imagine it was tough for me to teach that crazy style of basketball. I mean hell guys, it's just not basketball! ...the 3pt.game is not for me. I was brought up on the great movie Hoosiers (5 passes before you shoot), and followed every breath of Dean Smith. I mean hell, I paid attention to Dean Smith like Chris Christie standing behind Trumpster at a caucus win party. I don't want no part of that damn 3 ball!!! But holding true to form, I helped the guys out, after all it's what I do!... I help those that weren't blessed with my cerebral makeup. I feel like the Warriors have a great shot at 73 wins, and let Steve know that if for some reason they didn't meet that goal, that I could easily help him out with one of my "mafia" tactics... convincing the fan base that we did win the games, in which we really lost. I let him in on a few diversion tactics that will put the fan base in a trance, much like hypnosis. I didn't teach him all the tactics (remember guys, a man with my mental makeup doesn't give away all his tricks, just a few "go to" tactics like... the gym was too small, our three best players have been hurt/sick for two months, the refs have had it out for us for the last 30 years, we were told before the game that we couldn't call timeouts, the other team got to start the game in the bonus, and of course we wanted to lose, that way we could get better.
Lastly, I had to hit him with some bad intel, so I promptly broke out some nanner pudding out of my Bike coaching shorts (I only wear Bike brand, they have the deep pockets that way I can keep a sandwich bag of nanner puddin on me.), asked him to have a seat, grabbed a co cola and let him down easy. Guys this is the worst part about being GARY4plus... hitting people you grow to like, and in fact love, with horrible news. I had to tell him that Beast Berry was not coming out of college early, so there was no possible way for the Warriors to trade all their picks, slide into that no.1 spot, and draft Beast Berry! After he shed a tear or two, we tickled each others butthole with Berry stories for what seemed like hours, hell it could of been days, who knows. All I know, is that it was sure bliss. Steve caught me off guard with his knowledge of Berry, so just to see if he could pass the test of being a "mafia like" master evaluator of talent, and to see where his mental capacity makeup stood, I hit him with "do you know the last time Berry made a bad decision during a game?", there was a brief pause, and then to my surprise, "his fourth grade year", he replied! At this point I knew I had a "mafia" type, intel soldier in my presence. So just to see if I could make him a charter member on the spot, I hit him with "do you know why he made that bad decision"? he replied "yep, he was hit with a bad case of food poisoning that day, which prompted him to be a little off his game!"... Steve Kerr you are one of the great ones!
Sorry this was a tad long. Just wanted to get everybody up to speed as to why I haven't posted in a while. I'm going to have to look around and see what all I have missed out on. Good to be back amongst the greatest fans in the world. Looking forward to talking hoops.
Win or lose, we're not making excuses... and always going to have a little fun!
I wonder if there is a Gary 13 minus 6 out there somewhere? OFCGary3+4 know any "Intel" about who the refs are going to be.
I know there's a Gary 7 that's minus a lot more than 6.I wonder if there is a Gary 13 minus 6 out there somewhere? OFC
