Why do I get the feeling some reporter will still ask about the UNC job during the press conference tonight?

Didn’t UNC hire their next coach in Billy Donovan already? I’ve been on a work trip all week so I’m just a little out of the loop, unless that fell through and I didn’t hear about it. Or we’re talking about sports media being troll and dumbasses, which sadly isn’t uncommon either.

I’d be shocked if Joshua Jefferson plays tonight. Just an educated guess.

I hope I’m absolutely dead wrong.

Educated on what?

My logic is that he was at shootaround yesterday, so he'll dress for the game. And if he dresses for the game, he'll probably play.

I think there's some honesty in it being a game time decision with how he looks, runs and cuts in warmups. But if they trust the ankle enough for him to walk around at practice yesterday, then it's probably just a pain management issue, and pain killers and adrenaline do wonders on ankle pain (in my experience).

I don’t know if he’ll play (especially if it turns out we don’t need him tonight), but my guess is he dresses and is an option if we become desperate enough to put him in… or perhaps he’s further along then they showed last night and they put him in for spot minutes to get the rust off. I don’t know - I’m not pretending to be one of the guys who stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night (despite being on a work trip).

Donovan is rumored for the job, but the job is still open
 
Unexpected trip to Bloomington, MN this afternoon. What would be a good place close by to watch the game. Right now I have Full Tilt Tavern
