Looks like one of the two announcers will be the same as last night...

Last night, the drama (recorded) anouncer, Warren Buffer, was not played for the players introduction. Art Chandler did the honors. Much better.

On facebood, Blue Planet said the Blue Devil is handing out free tics for tonight. I thought CIS was sold out.

There were a horribly noticeable number of empty seats in the student section, we were depressed about how barren the risers looked.

I just spoke to the ticked office. The ticks the BD gave away are student tics, you guessed right. Because they flunked the filling up CIS course horribly. I think a new requirment for incoming students needs to be enforced. They must attend.

They can have a make up exam by showing up to the Wake football game. Even if it is Thanksgiving.

CIS still had empty seats. Alot upstairs and the student section still had lots of room even after the ticket give away. If this keeps up, I fully expect the students will loose a lot of their space.

Nolan was way fun to watch. He looked like he was having a good time. I felt bad for Olek, I wasn't sure if he'd even get in there..but he had a nice end to the game. Having Nolan was huge, everyone looked more relaxed being able to play the positions they are natural for. Andre looked great too, he's going to finish his career at Duke with a pile of points. I'm looking forward to seeing this crowd in January, especially once Mason has gotten some game legs.

The Jon block to Andre to Nolan for the dunk made Sportscenter's Top 10 plays this morning. :-bd

Nice to see that only Nolan played more then 30 minutes (32) this game. Miles Plumlee also seemed to be much better at not picking up silly fouls - then there's Lance....

Much different style of play with Nolan in. Almost seems like a different, more confident team then the first two games.

I was amazed at the difference but suspected it might be that way after the Pfeiffer game when he sat 1st half and played the 2nd half. We've got a lot of cylinders we can function with this year.
