EVERYONE IS SO PROUD OF WITH THIS WOLF PACK TEAM WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH. >> A SPECIAL MEMORABLE, HISTORIC POSTSEASON RUN COMES TO AN END FOR THE FACT THAT I THINK IF WE START AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS GAME, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE START SACKEY AND HE COMES OUT WITH 14 FIRST-HALF POINTS. IF YOU TOLD US THAT HE FINISHED WITH JUST 20, I THINK YOU MIGHT HAVE TAKEN THAT. BUT PURDUE TESTED THE PACKING A LOT OF DIFFERENT WAYS AND THEN STATE JUST A LITTLE OUT OF SYNC OFFENSIVELY. YOU LOSE MICHAEL O'CONNELL, THE FIRST AFTER THAT HAMSTRING INJURY, HE'S BEEN THE FLOOR GENERAL AND THIS ENTIRE RUN. I THINK THAT REALLY GOT THEM OUT OF RHYTHM. AND DESPITE ALL THAT, THEY'RE JUST DOWN 6 AT THE HALF WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE FOR A LOT OF THIS GAME. >> I THINK THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE, CASEY WAS THE REBOUNDING ADVANTAGE. PURDUE HAD 41 TO 28 DOWN SAID COMPENSATE FOR A 7 FOOT 4 SACKEY WHICH LED TO A LOT OF 3 POINT OPPORTUNITIES FOR PURDUE. AND LOOK, THIS WAS THE 10TH STRAIGHT ELIMINATION GAME FOR STATE. AND THIS ONE SHOT JUST IN FALL. I THINK ONE OF THE. >> OUR BIGGEST DIFFERENCES, SOME OF THE SHOTS THAT WE NORMALLY MAKE. WE DID MAKE IN THE END THE GAME AND KIND OF GOT AWAY FROM US A LITTLE BIT. BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT I COULD BE MORE PROUD A GROUP HOME AND THAT I'VE EVER COACHED IN MY LIFE. JUST TO KNOW WE WENT OUT THERE DIDN'T QUIT, EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A PROCEED ON OUR WAY. YOU KNOW, IT'S LIKE I SAID, THAT WAS A GREAT TEAM. SO >> WE DIDN'T EXPECT TO GO OUT THERE AND JUST HAVE A WAY WITH 2. SO THE FACT THAT, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, WITH THE WAY TO DO IT AND, YOU I CAN LIVE WITH THAT. IT'S NOT LIKE. >> IT WAS A SITUATION WHERE WE CAME ON JUST WE DIDN'T PLAY WELL. AND JUST, YOU KNOW, LET THEM DOMINATE. AS YOU KNOW, WE JUST DIDN'T HIT SHOTS AND THEY DID. UNFORTUNATELY UP AT WE ASKED DJ BURNS TO DESCRIBE WHAT HE WAS FEELING IN THAT MOMENT IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE GAME. HE SAID I'M FEELING LIKE I SHOULD HAVE LET IT GET TO HIS RIGHT HAND. IN THE 1ST HALF THINGS MIGHT BE DIFFERENT. END OF AN ERA FOR DJ BURNS. AND OF COURSE, TJ WARREN, THE 2 TRANSFERS WHO >> WE'VE HERE NOW AND SEE STATE ELECTIONS. AND I TALKED TO DJ HORNE ABOUT WHAT THIS NIGHT MEANT TO HIM. HE SAID HE NEVER SEEN AS MANY FANS IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE. HE SAID THE ONE THING HE REALLY LEARNED ABOUT THIS RUN WAS JUST THE VALUE WHEN IT. >> THANKS TO PAT AND CASEY THERE. WELL, THE TEAM'S LOSS AND ZINNI CHANCES OF PLAYING IN THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES. THOUSANDS OF FANS HERE IN RALEIGH WERE STILL EXCITED TO CHEER ON THEIR TEAM. HILLSBOROUGH STREET WAS PACKED FOR THE PACT DURING YESTERDAY'S WATCH PARTY. THEY WENT THROUGH A ROLLER COASTER OF EMOTIONS WATCHING IN WAITING FOR THE MEN'S TEAM TO SHOW THE MAGIC DISPLAYED DURING THEIR NINE-GAME WIN STREAK. DESPITE LAST NIGHT'S OUTCOME, MANY ARE STILL SO PROUD OF THE TEAM'S TURNAROUND THIS SEASON. >> THIS IS THE MAGICAL RIDE. IT REALLY WAS. I REALLY CAN'T PUT WORDS TO DESCRIBE LIKE HOW AWESOME THIS TEAM HAS BEEN LIKE WINNING THE ACC CHAMPIONSHIP AND THE COMEBACK THAT WE HAD >> OFFENSE TELL US THEY'RE HOPING THE TEAM BUILDS OFF OF THIS YEAR'S RUN AND MAKES A STRONG SHOWING IN MARCH MADNESS AGAIN NEXT YEAR.

<p>Hello, everyone. I'm meteorologist, Mike Mays in the WRL severe weather center with our forecast update for this Friday evening. If you're going to dinner tonight, just being out and about make sure you have some kind of rain gear, 50 to 60% chance for showers and thunderstorms through the night. 50% as we start the day on Saturday and temperatures, it will be mild. We wake up to about a morning low of 66 for your Saturday morning. So it won't really be all that cold. So we have a level one and two threat for Saturday. It's a wro weather alert. Any storms that become severe would have damaging winds, large hail. If there is an isolated tornado threat, it would be more toward the South Carolina Line afternoon and evening storms, maybe even overnight as well. And it's all of central North Carolina. Here's the breakdown level one threat, roughly for the triangle area points north Fayetteville southward level two threat. That's where you would have a greater likelihood of seeing storms and toward the Wilmington area. That's, I believe where you're going to have the isolated tornado threat. So here is the big picture what's happening. We have severe storms across the plains throughout the deep south. That's the same system that produced all that damage in Houston yesterday and it's coming our way and rainfall potential between now and Sunday evening, pretty hefty at least two inches on the American model. So I'd say, yeah, we're in line for a soaking and tomorrow could be quite wet. Not so much in the morning, 7 a.m. on future cash showing some rain lunchtime as well. But watch how we get into the afternoon. The showers and storms become more widespread at that point 3456 o'clock. Some of these storms could be strong, too severe. Likewise, at nine o'clock, they look rather menacing and the way they're developing, they will be laid across the area not moving a whole lot. So there could be some localized flooding. We'll watch to see if that could actually occur. And then on Sunday, it's looking like the drier. The two days, the greatest chance for rain would come in the morning. It will be a cooler day. Probably won't even have any thunderstorms. The high temperature hovers around 70 degrees. So our forecast for tonight showers, thunderstorms, some of the rain could be heavy. 66 in Raleigh, 68 in Clinton, 64 in Roxboro. And then tomorrow is a wro weather alert day, showers and storms are likely later in the afternoon and evening and at night too. 78 in Raleigh 81 in Fayetteville. Your seven day forecast Sunday, lesser chance for rain, uh, 70 the high cooler Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday morning with lows in the fifties, mostly cloudy Monday and Tuesday and then it becomes toasty again by next Thursday. That's our forecast update for this Friday evening. Have a great weekend. I'll see you on Monday.</p>
