  • If you believe in Karma -----

    Your going to love this. Just returned from shoot around at the Ford Center. The CBS crew for our game was courtside and I thought I recognized the color commentator. Following shoot around I confirmed that it was----------can you say Dan Bonner! Who is that? "Oh Newby" ring a bell? I went over to introduce myself and we had as great visit. My first comment to him was "I was in Richmond in 1990 when we beat Missouri." His laughing reply---"So was I." I told him that his "Oh Newby" was now legend in Panther Nation. He said the only thing he remembers about that game was that shot and that we brought a guy off the bench that hadn't played in several minutes. I also learned that Kevin Harlan, who will be doing play by play with Bonner tommorow was sick of Bonner getting all the attention because of that game so long ago. We had a good laugh. Very nice guy.

    Karma people-----KARMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You don't break out the Purple and Gold on game days or look for special gifts and gadgets bearing the colors because you want to be seen among the loyal. Purple and Gold aren't colors you see---they're colors you feel. They run through your veins with a continuous roar.

      "O'rear!!" would be much more fun (and fitting, given the holiday).....

        "Are you kidding me? They put in a guy off the bench? He hasn't played in ten minutes!"

        Let's ensure that's still not our only NCAA win.

          Great story, PR. Harlan and Bonner is a great crew to have working our game. Hope we give him another reason to get excited about the Panthers tomorrow.
          It's my kind of team, Charlie. My kind of team!
