Wake Forest seems to be an after thought amongst ACC fans in the Triangle, but Lauren Brownlow believes that shouldn't be the case.
QUESTION ABOUT HOW FANS IN THE TRIANGLE PERCEIVE THOSE DEMON DEACONS. >> THIS TIME I DECIDED TO TAKE A QUESTION FROM AT DILLON'S RULE. >> ON TWITTER, HE ASKS IS WAKE STILL ARRIVAL FOR UNC SLASH IN CSU SLASH. DO I UNDERSTAND WHY YOU MIGHT ASK I THINK THAT IN THIS REGION, IN PARTICULAR, IN THE TRIANGLE, THERE'S A REAL DISCONNECT WHEN IT COMES TO A FOREST HAS AGREED FOR A NATIVE. I GREW UP WITH WAKE FOREST. SO FOR ME, WAKE FOREST HAS ALWAYS BEEN HIS BIG ARRIVALS. ANYBODY, HOWEVER, WHEN I WAS GROWING UP IN GREENSBORO TO BE FAIR, THIS WAS LIKE THE YEAR OF LIKE TIM DUNCAN RANDOLPH TO WAKE FOREST BASKETBALL. WAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST RIVALS, NORTH CAROLINA. AND I HAD PLENTY OF FRIENDS AROUND TOWN. OUR FANS LIKE IT WASN'T LIKE HERE. WE'RE, YOU KNOW, TO ME LENGTH AND IS ALMOST LIKE MEETING A UNICORN, YOU KNOW, COMPARED AND GREENSBORO, WINSTON-SALEM, YOU'RE GOING TO BE YOU'RE GOING TO SEE WAY CANS AROUND. YOU MAY NOT SEE THEM LIKE YOU DO HERE LIKE YOU WOULD FOR LIKE STATE FANS HERE, CAROLINA FANS EVEN HERE. BUT YOU STILL SEE THAT AROUND MORE THAN NEEDING HERE. SO. WHAT I'M SAYING IS FOR ME PERSONALLY, I WILL ALWAYS THINK OF WAKE IN THAT GROUP BECAUSE TO ME THEY ALWAYS HAVE BEEN MY ENTIRE LIFE. THAT'S WHAT I'M GROWN UP. KNOWING IS WAY FOR US IS PART OF THE BIG 4 AND EVERYBODY JUST LIKES EACH OTHER AND THAT'S THAT PEOPLE MIGHT DISMISS. WAIT FOR. IS THAT WAY TO WAIT FOR SAYS? THE TRIANGLE LIKE WE WAIT, BEAT
