Next Coach

Who else is coming to save us? Like I said, most of the top options people wanted the first time around are pushing 70 or out of the game. Jay Wright's not coming out of retirement for a worse situation than he was in at Villanova. Guys like Hurley and Oats have it too good at their current programs to quit now.
Kentucky has a much better NIL program than we do and they couldn't lure any big names to them.

Wes isn't the perfect hire, but the top guys aren't likely coming here. Mark Pope wasn't Kentucky's first choice, but it seems to be working for them so far in year one. Our chance to get an elite coach was squandered on Hubert. Now you have to cut your losses. If our NIL isn't going to change, it's better to have someone who's shown he can build a program back from nothing and be competitive with less.

We'll know better by the end of next season whether Wes is truly that guy for us, which I imagine will also be the season the excuses for Hubert run out unless something changes soon. But we'd better "hope" Wes is that guy and does still want it. Because an "established legit coach" is not likely to walk through the door this time around.

Rose hit the nail on the head with his sentence about squandering the opportunity for all the big names back when we hired Hubert the first time. That was my biggest gripe. You make a ballsy move and hand the keys to the program to a guy who had no business getting the job and if it didn’t work out, it would set us back 5-7 years and look where we are. It’s an absolute shame what the program has become and half the problem is all the blowhards who are making excuses for a guy that is 4 years in and has us averaging 10 loss seasons as if that’s OK by any standard created by those before him. He’s not the guy and he never was the guy outside of Roy force feeding the decision down Bubba’s throat.

What are your expectation for the Belichick era?

Obviously the impact on NIL and the portal should be through the roof, but realistically, how many years do you think he'll coach UNC?
How many wins do you expect in first few seasons?
Does Keenan become a legit football crazed atmosphere?
Do you expect the Heels to be in ACCCG within 2, 3 years?
Contending for a playoff spot?
Impact on other sports, specifically basketball?
Does MJ decide to jump into the fray and help push our NIL where we can be competitive in recruiting and the portal?

A lot to think about now that Carolina has thought so far out of the box, and is making a monumental shift from the usual. What are your thoughts?
