The Sorting Hat says that I belong in Hufflepuff!

Said Hufflepuff, "I'll teach the lot, and treat them just the same."

Hufflepuff students are friendly, fair-minded, modest, and hard-working. A well-known member was Cedric Digory, who represented Hogwarts in the most recent Triwizard Tournament.

I was also considered for Ravenclaw

Said Ravenclaw, "We'll teach those whose intelligence is surest."

Ravenclaw students tend to be clever, witty, intelligent, and knowledgeable.
Notable residents include Cho Chang and Padma Patil (objects of Harry and Ron's affections), and Luna Lovegood (daughter of The Quibbler magazine's editor).

And Gryffindor

Said Gryffindor, "We'll teach all those with brave deeds to their name."

Students of Gryffindor are typically brave, daring, and chivalrous.
Famous members include Harry, Ron, Hermione, Albus Dumbledore (head of Hogwarts), and Minerva McGonagall (head of Gryffindor).

I begged the Sorting Hat not to put me in Slytherin

Said Slytherin, "We'll teach just those whose ancestry is purest."

Slytherin students are typically cunning and hungry for power. Important members include Draco Malfoy (Harry's nemesis), Professor Severus Snape (head of Slytherin), and Lord Voldemort.

How a rapid basketball fan sees the Hogwarts houses as

North Carolina Tar Heels = Gryffindor

Selects from students from different, diverse backgrounds

Dean Smith = Albus Dumbledore

Michael Jordon = Harry Potter

considered good as compared to Duke (Slytherin)

went on a run of championships/ house cups

Duke Blue Devils = Slytherin

selects students from the wealthy elite (almost all)

Mike Krzyzewski = Lord Voldemort

considered villians

(ABD-anybody but Duke or ABS- anybody but Slytherin)

questionable sports teams philosophies

NC State Wolfpack = Hufflepuff

not as selective as the other four

accepting of anyone, regardless of background

hard-workers

Not as good in their respective sports (basketball and quidditch)

Wake Forest Demon Deacons = Ravenclaw

most selective in terms of getting the brightest students

pretty good in respective sports

fierce rivalry

UNC-Duke

Gryffindor-Slytherin

Great minds think alike...
