You know B, if you really want to answer the question of why Coda didn't make the NBA, well...he was at the wrong Carolina school, and he was certainly wearing the wrong blue and white. I mean look at how many six feet Duke players somehow make the league (Redick, Duhon, Ewing...), but enough about the wrong blue and white. I can't believe he played for Gary...wow, you would actually have to visit Gary to know how bad that is. Great story B! Darn, and I said I wasn’t going to make a comment, but ah well.

I attended the North Carolina highschool basketball camp and it was one of the coolest things I have ever had the chance to do. Two quick stories... I once saw Antawn Jamison eat close to 50 chicken wings at lunch one day and saw Ed Cota make six half-court shots in a row. All but one was nothing but twine! Good times in Carolina. Good times indeed. The Nugg Doctor I got to meet and hang out with Ed and some of the ‘Heels a little bit back in highschool.

He helped make Joseph Forte and Brendan Haywood first-round picks and actually made Kris Lang and Jason Capel look like real players. It's no accident that Carolina went downhill immediately after his departure.
