I am getting a bit annoyed with the replies that we have the money, that Hubert is just shy to spend it. I think everyone here has enough common sense to realize that we do have a money problem that several other programs do not have to our degree. Maybe the revenue sharing will and salary cap, both on the way, will mitigate some of that.

UNC spent nearly the entire day Sunday "negotiating" with Belichek, what do you think the sticking point was, you know it was about the money that will be needed to given to UNC football for it to be successful. Football pays the bills... Has anyone noticed, when you go to the ESPN web site you have to go to the tab labeled "more sports" before you can see college basketball, college football is a main tab on their front page. That is a small thing but it shows a difference in the level of respect ESPN has for college basketball.

Say we do get Belichek, means his demands are met and knowing that the UNC collective has now merged the money for BOTH football and basketball, where does the money come from to pay the basketball talents we need to get back to where UNC belongs in the sport?

Of course there is all the ridiculousness his family talked about winning a national championship, family, blah blah blah. I don't blame him for taking the biggest bag, but you don't need to pretend all the other stuff is important when it clearly is not.

It makes me feel better he choose BYU… can’t be mad at him choosing the biggest bag. Also no player is worth paying that much.

BYU gave him 7 million. That's just... stupid

I get what you're saying but I can't help wondering if it just looks that way because we don't ask JWash to play more like Manek.

Put him at the top of the arc and get him the ball. Let's see what happens. If he makes those shots, that could be a game changer.

If that doesn't work, I guess you just start bringing him off the bench.

I notice that in AJ's recent video, he also suggests trying Lubin in the middle and JWash at the 4.

Maybe not a guaranteed improvement, but certainly looks worth a try.

Rather than Manek, I would play him more like we did Jawad, I wouldn't camp Jalen out past the trey arch, I would have him pop out there on occasion but not camp out, for example like Nance did. I want him setting screens and popping up. Hubert seems to want his 4s to camp out past the 3pt arch, always seems to have a big man sitting deep corner off ball side, JWitt is doing a LOT of that this season, it tends to either take that guy out of the offense or forces a weak jump shooter to take shots. Run that 4 thru the paint, set a ball side screen and roll to a off side screen & then either hold the screen for your driver or pop out for the open shot. Don't just leave him in the deep corner to collect dust.
