So much promise.

Currently, the No. 4 "hot search" on Google is "Joseph Forte." It refers to investment manager Joseph Forte, charged with a Madoff-esque scheme; it got us thinking about former UNC standout and 2000 ACC Rookie of the Year Joe Forte, which led us to broader Google research ultimately resulting in this 2005 article from The Washington Post. Further research led us to this: he plays for Snaidero Udine in Italy, along with Jermaine Jackson and others. Didn't it seem like this kid was going to be the truth at one point? Sigh.
