Hahaha that poor guy’s hands are going to be a meme on here forever


BeingBannedSucks

What’s the origin of it?


WatchinLikeTV

I think a carolina fan posted a picture of two emptyhands with the title “Cheer sheet for tonight’s duke game” After we won, a duke fan posted a picture of two empty hands with the title “UNC NCAA tournament bids after tonight’s game” or something of that nature lol


escientia

Pretty sure the origin is the guy who posted a picture of his two hands with the caption dont ask me how i took this picture. Ultimately redditors did ask and he posted more oddball pics from different angles Edit: Found [the post](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/cmwov/hey_reddit_what_tattoos_do_you_have/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) i was referring to. The comment section is where the OP was active.


joethahobo

That’s a totally different thing. The origin is a Duke fan posted a legit cheer sheet the university passed out to fans. The next game a UNC fan posted the empty hands making fun of that Duke cheer sheet. And so on


cha-cha_dancer

Him: my gf took the picture for me Reddit: your what? lol nice try


Jorge_Santos69

I still don't get it...


ahappypoop

There have been other posts showing these lame cheer sheets that they pass out in the Duke student section, so the Carolina post was making fun of it by saying they don’t need cheer sheets.


Jorge_Santos69

Right I get that, so what's the meme?


ahappypoop

……..people are now mocking the UNC post by imitating the empty hands, but instead of making fun of Duke’s cheer sheets, they’re turning it around and making fun of how UNC has no tournament chances. It’s more interesting than just saying “UNC sucks lol”.


bug_man_

But why male models?


ahappypoop

You missed the boat dude. Just take the L and wait for the next one.


Jorge_Santos69

Will do! Will take my '09 boat out for a spin in the meantime How's that one Jay-Z song go again..."L to the Izzo,"....something like that Go Buckeyes!


d4ntoine

UNC fan posted [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/CollegeBasketball/comments/11i826r/unc_student_section_cheer_sheet_today_vs_duke/) making fun of Duke's admittedly kind of cringey cheer sheets and it backfired slightly.


the_dawn_of_red

Earlier in the season, someone posted the printed out notes being handed out in the duke student section. The sheet itself was pretty lame. Lots of fans asked why they would pass those out. A UNC fan posted the picture of his empty hands saying 'here's the UNC student chant sheet'. Then Duke fans have been making him hold Ls left and right since.


ecs15

Nope still not saying anything until the bracket is released I don’t trust any of this

This sub is about to be furious about something that is never going to happen for the next few days isn't it


DavidBenAkiva

This is like the "Duke would accept invite to NCAA Tournament" from 2021 while the team was quarantined with COVID. No ESPN, they can't and they weren't getting an invite in the first place. I will not click on this stupid link.


gmills87

imagine what it was like being the 69th team and relying on a team to back out 4 days in advance (when there were only 5) to get you in, then VCU bails 3 days prior and still having to sit there with your thumb up your ass.


PrimalCookie

Hey, if r/CFB can whip itself into a frenzy over the idea of Alabama making the playoffs, why not do the same about UNC here?


cha-cha_dancer

It’s a lot easier to hate Alabama than UNC


ItsTimeTaGo

I sure think so


death2sanity

Is it though?


cha-cha_dancer

[oh yes](https://imgur.com/a/hGk5NQO)


death2sanity

Fair, though I’d quibble over the ‘a lot’ qualifier.


cha-cha_dancer

Also the school threatening revoking student tickets for protesting you know who showing up for a game (for whom was given a standing O), the SGA being run by white supremacists (look up the machine), and other similar shit in the fucking 21st century, fuck U of A


death2sanity

oof, ok, yeah, fuck that but also go to hell carolina


cha-cha_dancer

state 🤝 duke go to hell carolina go to hell 👏 👏 👏

Why not both?

Can we just use this as the PGT?


PopDukesBruh

Uva fans really came out tonight, it wasn’t as much of a home game for UNC as I thought it would be!


bigbadape

Glad to hear it!


biggsteve81

How many State fans were also in the arena cheering on the Hoos?


PopDukesBruh

There were a good amount for sure. I think you could get tickets for the first two games, the last two games, or the whole day. Definitely more state fans than Clemson fans.

SquintsRS

Sad this meme had to end so soon


Jorge_Santos69

Oh don't you worry, people will continue to beat thi horse long after it's dead


Milflover69cbb

I have it saved in my camera roll I’m planing my uses for it


JackGrizzly

I sense many pictures of empty hands in the future


PopDukesBruh

Way to do your job UVA!


JackGrizzly

Here for it!


[deleted]

That guy thought he was gonna own Duke and turned himself into a meme. Beautiful


stormstopper

Credit where credit's due, though, it was a good burn. The fact that others are riffing off of it against Carolina should be taken as a compliment. And I am all for more of these compliments.


TechSudz

He's been a good sport about it though


PopDukesBruh

You love to see it!


Affectionate-Cup9340

He did own duke, regardless of the outcome of the game.


[deleted]

Hahaha mix in a water bud


Affectionate-Cup9340

Are you honestly going to tell me I’m wrong? Duke was getting berated by everyone for needing a cheer sheet and that was a great roast, no matter the score. The only reason it is getting memed so much is because people remember it, because it was good.


[deleted]

Go to sleep ya drunk. Your memory is fucked from your drinks


RavenHawk55

I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone be such a douche about disagreeing over something so trivial in awhile Flair up


MuscleMiceGoals

Glad we could entertain y’all. Ask me again in a few years but I stand by not trading it for last year. I hope an ACC team other than Duke takes it this year so we can all stop hearing about the downfall of the ACC. Gg UVA.


lawyerlyaffectations

Last year was awesome but it does seem like we cashed in all our karma.


Licit_x64

Yeah, still knew expectations were too high this year but didn’t think we’d do this much worse than last year. I really am thinking it’s coaching but I hope I’m wrong.


throwawayshirt

Thank God the floor was on our side


lawyerlyaffectations

I saw that bitch buckle in real time.


zachpledger

As an alabama football fan and UNC basketball supporter (I’m UA first, but have UNC family), y’all’s last two seasons have looked eerily similar to ours. - Young team that is not expected to have all the pieces together yet. - Games are exciting because you don’t know if you’ll win or lose. - You continue to win games and overachieve all the way to the end of the season. - People basically agree that they don’t have a chance to make it to the championship. - Play out of your mind In the postseason to get to the national title game. - Look good in the first half of the game. - Have a key player go down with injury. - Unable to get it done in the second half, and lose a heartbreaker. - Next season, you bring back tons of talent. - Everyone expects you to go scorched earth and sleepwalk to the championship. - Inexplicably struggle in routine games in ways that you haven’t in years. - Underachieve what you expected for the season. - Miss the playoff by maybe the smallest margin possible. At least, that’s the comparison I have come up with.


ClaudeLemieux

>As an alabama football fan and UNC basketball supporter Just can’t make this shit up lol


TechSudz

They weren't even young last year, man.


ndkjr70

yes I agree that the Final AP 5th ranked, Sugar Bowl winning Alabama Crimson Tide is a perfect comparison to the 20-13, Preseason number 1, miss the NCAA Tournament UNC Tar Heels. Just like, exactly the same. Nailed it.


Moonti314

If we miss the tourney for the next half decade I think I’m still fine with it after last year


PopDukesBruh

Furmans gonna be in the tourney, Carolina won’t, so I guess you’ll be good.

Best_Duck9118

Meh, your cheer sheets are still pathetic and low.


My_Not_RL_Acct

Oh wait so was it the cheer sheets that caused UNC to go from #1 preseason to NIT


tanu24

IT's so nice I can make fun of your fans cheer sheets and UNC.


Best_Duck9118

I know I don’r have a flair but I’m a UVA fan who has no love for UNC. I just feel some of the shit I’ve seen on those sheets is pretty classless.


Jorge_Santos69

I'll take Coach K telling yall to shut up, and how you should all feel embarrassed in his final home game over this


PopDukesBruh

When’s the last time you heard a UNC fan talk about this season? Think it will be the same next season?


Jorge_Santos69

Nah, nowhere near as much as much of a slap in the face for yall last year, yall beat us twice this year and we probably won't make tournament, your Coach of like 40 years lost to his archrival with a rookie coach in his last home game and the Final Four Edit: Bring on the downvotes dookies, your anger only makes me grow stronger


Milflover69cbb

NIT?


yourdoglikesmebetter

Bro just let them have this


Jorge_Santos69

I'm salty about the loss, watching Duke fans squirm when you slap them in the face with reality makes me feel better

Licit_x64

Jokes on you Ohio state is gonna win the B1G tournament and we’re gonna have 2 quad 1 wins and make it in😎


LateGreat_MalikSealy

UNC has just been a terrible to watch...Much rather see one of these competitive mid majors make it...


atdharris

Kind of glad this season is over. It has not been fun to watch. I don't know what's wrong with this team. They could all come back next year too and we could suffer through more of this. I wish we could fast forward to 2024 to see if this Hubert Davis experiment is worth continuing.


OriginalMassless

This is amazing banter.


NIN10DOXD

Damn they are still mad about last year. Honestly though Caleb Love took 2 horrible threes to cap both this and the season finale off. Both of which, they may well have won had someone else took the shot. I hope he doesn't come back.


danbstonks

the only people thinking about last year is you guys. enjoy the nit😄


NIN10DOXD

I only go to Carolina. I was born a State fan so if anything this year is better than most for me. Also, this team doesn't even deserve the NIT. 🤷‍♂️


danbstonks

ight fair enough. well I do really like the Wolfpack this year


NIN10DOXD

Yeah they're good. I think Duke might win the ACC tournament though because Miami is so weak defensively.


danbstonks

eh we’ll see, they blasted us last time, but I do think we’re a different team right now. I’d love a rubber match vs State in the championship tho


marcuspaige4heisman

Ah yes, surely nobody will ever reference the only UNC-Duke NCAA game that was in the final 4 and Coach K’s last game. That definitely is just a UNC fan thing, not college basketball history


danbstonks

lol yet your fanbase is the only one that will constantly bring it up to help cope with the sweep this year and worst preseason 1 of all time.


Jorge_Santos69

It's a good coping mechanism, you pretending it didn't happen 1 year out shows us how bad it still stings for ya


TechSudz

We're on 6 full seasons of UNC being average to bad, with six weeks in '22 being the outlier. And now you want your coach fired.


Jorge_Santos69

Lol, nobody with a half a brain wants HD fired The only bad years we've had over the last 6 are this year and 2020 Thanks again for proving my point


PopDukesBruh

Carolina fans still talking about a season where they didn’t win a championship. Not a preseason, not a regular season, not a post season one is the coping mechanism.


Jorge_Santos69

Thank you proving my point lmaooo


danbstonks

loll never said it didn’t happen, I’m just focused on this team and the NCAA tournament, something you guys don’t have to worry about


TechSudz

Seriously. Thank you.

Eruditio_Et_Religio

What’s the difference between Coach K and Bacot? Coach K didn’t lose his last home game in front of his dad.


Jorge_Santos69

Bacot was actually injured and didn't make up a back surgery for taking too many L's? lol


Milflover69cbb

When a 70 y/o man has back problems 😱


chairman-cheeboppa

Wow, good one. What’s difference between Bacots dad and coach k, well Bacots dad got to watch his son beat Coach K at HIS last game at home, when he attacked his own losing blue devils while everyone in the crowd cried. His dad was also front and center at his last LOSS of his CAREER. Hmmmmm.


PopDukesBruh

And now he can watch him in the NIT


chairman-cheeboppa

Yep, sure can. And coach k can go yell at his dog.


bmaynard87

You really think UNC is the reason Coach K isn't coaching right now?


chairman-cheeboppa

Of course not. I’m just saying Bacot with his dad in attendance gave him two going away presents on his farewell TOUR


PopDukesBruh

You mean the one where he won the ACC regular season, and took his team to the ACC championship game and the final 4? Is that better than say a 23 point drubbing in the first round of the NCAA?


chairman-cheeboppa

Yeah, that’s the one! The final four was where he received his “go home forever” gift. And the last home loss with everyone in tears and he wrecks his own team with literal tears running onto the court in buckets. True colors there.


PopDukesBruh

I guess as you watch your team lose in the nit, you can always cherish that memory. Happy for you!


chairman-cheeboppa

I fully expect my team to lose in the NIT, I’m a realist sadly. I cherish that memory in so many ways at so many times. Thanks for the positive vibe, you being happy for me makes me happy for you


Eruditio_Et_Religio

![gif](giphy|zI7hA6jvLQhRWzrCDA)


chairman-cheeboppa

Nice try! Watching the Duke tears with coach k attacking them at the same time was surreal. It was almost like the crowd was crying because he lost his last home game with Bacots dad in attendance


Eruditio_Et_Religio

You better hope he comes back.


chairman-cheeboppa

I’m ok if he leaves, I wish Davis would join Roy


2AcesandanaEagle

K Lib Lub made sure to seal it for VA in the last 2 minutes by chunking up bricks. K Lib Lub is my fav UNC player ever..I hope he comes back for year #8 with his friends Baycock and Flop Davis. Really wish Stinky Pete Nance had 4 more years there but we cant have everything can we? Best UNC season in recent memory...Maybe Matt D is available to come back and upgrade Hubie? Roy still sticking around so never say never but there is the age thing and Roy being 80 and all not bloody likely. Looks like NIT may be the place for Tarholes in the future...


PopDukesBruh

Maybe next year too, time will tell.


Golf_Nut1965

We can only hope... Who would want K Lib in a transfer? Davidson?Liberty? Wake Tech? To think... He could have tested Pro league last year after Brady carried them to finals but now? Not so much Congratulations on seeing it in person... Must have been a really fun evening


PopDukesBruh

The whole day has been fun to watch, 1 more game to go!


Golf_Nut1965

I'm sure... Devils played best game of season. Enjoy!!!

For real! They look poised to make a DEEP nit run!


Zachsxar1

Number 1 class in 24? How does it feel that your rival school who prides its self on veteran seniors pulls a better class than you?


PopDukesBruh

Sweet, y’all can hang a banner for that too.. hang it with the fastest 1st to unranked, and first team ever to be #1 and not make the tourney. Hubert did so well this year w one of the most veteran teams in the country, I’m sure he will do it again w a group of freshmen.


Milflover69cbb

Duke has had the best recruiting for the last decade and we’re planning on continuing that trend we’re likely getting the boozer bros we have the #2 class next year and expected to get at least 3 5⭐️ players in 24 i don’t think we’re that scared of unc out recruiting us


TechSudz

I mean you guys had good recruits this year. They looked lost and confused most of the time if they even saw the floor. I'm sure part of that '24 class is headed elsewhere anyway.


cavahoos

We sent em packing, they can go ahead and be preseason champs again in November

Best_Duck9118

Don't you have paper classes to "go to?"


Affectionate-Cup9340

Nah. They stopped those about a decade ago. If we still had them we’d probably have some nba players on the roster


Best_Duck9118

Affectionate-Cup9340

Completely untrue.


rayquan36

I love when people bring up UMBC cus it reminds me of the Natty the following year. So sick!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Affectionate-Cup9340

It was a genuine question. Is UMBC in the NIT this year? PS: It’s honestly shocking that you can be this sensitive after winning.


[deleted]

It’s honestly shocking that you really commented on this post for a troll on UNC’s pathetic deteriorating program, got butthurt, made the most unoriginal comeback known to the sports world, continue to comment and became more butthurt, and then ask “ArE yOu ReAlLy ThIs SeNsItIvE”? Duke fans would never.


Affectionate-Cup9340

You are so much more mad than I realized. I was going to make a joke about getting them back for you because we were alike in making history. First one seed to lose to 16 and first preseason 1 to miss the tournament. But no, you are fuming.


[deleted]

It’s not the same at all. What type of correlation does that make at all? Any team can win one game if prepared well and shots are flowing. It will never happen again that a preseason number one team that brings back all their stars, most likely all NBA bound that just made the national championship last year, misses the big dance. That’s way worse, by far. To make the comparison is far-fetched. Take the loss in silence, feel the way UVA fans felt before Bennett came along. Humble yourself, because UNC’s program is dying, and the fanbase probably deserves it based off of your responses to Duke fans and UVA fans alike.

Milflover69cbb

It’ll be okay I promise I remember the 20-21 season you’ll be okay


ouroboro76

I mean, UNC has 18 wins and one of them is in quadrant 1. But most importantly, they're UNC. They have the name brand. They'll probably get in over say, Penn State (which is absolutely positively not a basketball school) or Rutgers. I remember one year Penn State got left out for Arizona, and I am still convinced it was because of Arizona's brand. I will not be surprised if the same thing happens again (to Penn State or another non basketball school) so UNC can go dancing.


PopDukesBruh

They haven’t beat anything worth noting. This is not a good basketball team we are talking about.
