All right. We have a lot of calls this week on the O mailbag about NC State what's going on with their

basketball roster we have one call in particular about North Carolina and was it a mistake

to let Dillamingo go I also I'm not making this up I also got a call about my Illinois take

and how much Illinois fans hate my Illinois take.

So not only have I found the preeminent expert on NC State basketball

and Dylan Mingo in J.C. Zemble from the Wolfpacker.

I have also found the only Illinois grad in the area that I know.

J.C. Zemble from the Wolfpacker here,

kind enough to help me with a mailbag completely

tailored to handle all of your expertise. So without further ado, let's just get into it because

there's actually, there's some Hornets takes that people didn't like. Let's start with the number

one Hornets take that I think confused some people, or not confused, got some people going's okay because you know why this is the take business hey so I was just listening to you guys talk about the hornets and I was a little call off caught up guard by joe jillias uh disgust with lamello ball um I understand some people take a problem with the way he plays taking

bad shots things like that but you almost sounded like nick right the way he was so angry at

everything he stands for and like his being as a person um especially comments he said he didn't

like his hair didn't like the way he looked, thought his face was punchable.

When like 10 minutes earlier he talked about how much he loved Kobe White because of his hair and because of how he always looked happy, smiling.

Like, Lamella literally also has poofy hair and smiles every second of the day.

So I guess I have a different perspective of the younger person who grew up watching him play at Chino Hills and, you know, watched his family's documentary on Facebook, like, seeing, like, his relationship with his dad and, like, his relationship with his mom who had a stroke and like lost her ability

to walk and talk.

I guess I have a different perspective on him.

Like I understand like maybe he's got one more tattoo than he needs to have, but I don't

know.
