I've become a big fan of the general disdain the posters in this thread have for our neighbors in Durham.

Between here, Carolina Law's status checker, and the tourney, my productivity on my thesis (which is due 4/1) has decreased by 80 to 90 percent since Thursday. Remind me again why we have school during March 17-April 4th?

Hell, there are about 5-6 weeks of sports in the spring that end any chance I have at being productive.

March: Dook game, ACC and conference tourneys, and NCAA tourney
April: Final Four and the Masters

How'd they notify you? Email I am assuming? Or phone call?

I'm not saying dude is lying, but Dean States wouldn't send scholarship offers out at 10:30 PM. I know he tends to send e-mails out later in the day, but 10:30 seems extremely late. So even if CloseToGood isn't messing around, maybe he is the anomaly and everyone else will get offers tomorrow.

That was my initial thought as well. It seems too late but that hasn't stopped me from checking my e-mail incessantly.

3) Supra, the post was at 10:00, and 10:00 - :30 = 9:30. 11:00, and 11:00 - :30 = 10:30. Close is a regular (or has been) and has no reason to mess with us.
And sometimes adults stay up late too.

FTFY

Close is a regular so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt but this late is out of the ordinary.

I don't blame some of you for thinking it suspicious. I had been nursing my inbox all day and did one last check before going to bed -and BAM! (I got the email at 10:30) Given what another user just posted (I think today) about the admissions folks missing two deadlines this week, it's possible that that have been working this weekend. However, given the odd time, I'm suspecting that they may be deviating from heir usual 'mass announcement waves' and it's possible that more news will be going out early next week (pure speculation though).

As for the exact amount, I rather not say, but it was very generous.

Good luck everyone!

Are you sure? For me it says "Posted: Sun Mar 20, 2011 10:04 pm." My computer clock is right, so why would the clock on this website be wrong for me but right for other people?

That's weird. it says I posted it at 10pm on my computer too, but I posted it at 11. TLS forget to change their clocks?

[CloseToGood]

Oh, and it was via email.

Congrats! Would you be willing to PM the amount and your numbers?

For your clock issue, you may have to go and manually change the clock on your TLS user control panel. I had to after daylight savings.

[CloseToGood]

Done and Done.

Good luck everyone!!

Should be a good one. Haven't seen them play much this year, but they looked pretty solid yesterday. Borntorun, do you know if they play much zone defense?

[jdemmitt]

Ugh, scholly offers are out and I am still praying for acceptance. Cruel, cruel god.
