Did this accidentally become a sports newsletter?

Good morning!

If you're a long-time subscriber, you likely know I have a reputation for being bad with art. In fifth grade, I was scolded and went home crying because the clay sculpture I made was ugly and my teacher didn't think I was trying. In fairness, she was correct.

A couple years ago, I almost got escorted out of the Hirshhorn by security for touching a big netted sculpture hanging from the ceiling and setting off an alarm.

In short, I hate art a lot — but not enough to completely defund the National Endowment for the Arts, probably.

I'd hate to see what Donald Trump's clay sculpture looked like in primary school.

QUICK HITS

  • A plaque honoring Zora Neale Hurston appeared on the outside of Carolina Hall yesterday. UNC officials said they aren't sure who put it there, but they'll be removing it.
  • The General Assembly is overachieving in its nominations for the Board of Governors. The two houses together only have 12 seats to fill, but they've nominated 24 people.
  • If you have a couple minutes, nominate columnist Mejs Hasan to run Sweden's Twitter for a week! (Yes, that's a real thing Sweden does.)

IN DAILY CRIME

Someone was reported for walking drunk through traffic on Franklin Street early Saturday morning. Someone else stole a moped — cover, helmet, lock and all — from a front yard on North Roberson.

IN UNC FOOTBALL

The UNC football team has received commitments from four graduate transfers. Say hello to former LSU quarterback Brandon Harris.

IN BUSI 101

Meet the man, the myth, the legend. The guy who tweeted that video of Luke Maye getting a standing ovation in his 8 a.m. And no, I will never stop putting Luke Maye content in newsletter.

IN THE FINAL FOUR

To prove it: Luke Maye told reporters yesterday that he hasn't been feeling any pressure this week because he knows how good he can be. Also, Joel Berry is still recovering from his ankle injuries.
