Chansky’s Notebook: ‘The Wagner Season’

Posted Mar 21, 2024
Beware, Wagner is a lot better than the team that beat Duke. The Tar Heels’ first opponent in the NCAA tournament edged a Howard team in the First Four coached by former Blue Devil Kenny Blakeney, who must have heard jokes about the loss to Wagner when he played for Duke’s teams of 1992 and ’94. The team UNC faces Thursday is a lot better. (Chapelboro.com)
