Looked like he hit floor on head - or Strickland accidentally hit him try to stand up and went back down - concussion maybe

Hate that. Praying he's ok. Smack is a fun diversion from the daily grinds of life but I never want to see anyone get injured.Posted Jan 29, 10:01 p.m.

P.J. Hairston: Duke Recruiters 'Can't Even Spell My Name Right'
The Duke University Men's basketball program typically gets its choice of the nation's top high school recruits.
But coveted prospect P.J. Hairston -- that's P-J-H-A-I-R-S-T-O-N -- won't be competing for Coach K and company next fall, at least in part because of a little spelling error.
Here's what P.J. had to say about the Blue Devils recruiting process in a recent interview with the Greensboro News & Record:
The thing about Duke was, every time they sent me a letter, they wouldn't spell my name right. They would have 'T.J. Harrison' or something like that. And I'm like, 'OK. How can I go here? You can't even spell my name right.' It's only two letters and HAIR and STON. I'm trying to figure out how that's so hard.

"Don't get me wrong. Duke is a great school," Hairston added. "It wasn't just because they couldn't spell my name right why I didn't go there. I don't feel that I'm a Duke-type player, because they have a crazy system. It's like mechanical.""I realized North Carolina is where I wanted to be."
So did we, TJ. So did we.
Get some good sleep tonight, with your head resting in a big bowl of soothing jello, and come back strong Saturday against Va. Tech.
