2025 recruiting....

Concentrating on "potential" 2nd round draft picks in the transfer portal with NIL money is something we might want to consider. It makes financial sense for those guys to take NIL money, and UNC gets more exposure than a development league.

UNC is one of the top Journalism schools in America, UNC like Colorado football needs to start letting internet be a way of attracting talent. Not fan of CU football, but I can name all there receivers and DBs because of how they internally cover themselves. Recruits look at that stuff.

If UNC wants the top recruits again, we need to make UNC basketball cool again. We already have "Carolina Blue" going for us. I am not a marketing major, but UNC basketball could use a remodel to appeal to this generation.

Or we can keep developing our guys and winning games with older players.

Curt Cignetti

1st Indiana coach in history to start 4-0.

Back in 2021, when Mack's program took the downward turn into a losing season, I called for him to step down or be fired. Then JMU HC Cignetti was one for the 3 or 4 names I offered as much better bets for UNC to hire if it wanted a shot at winning the ACC.

If UNC had hired Cignetti in 2021 or 2022 or last year, UNC would be in much better shape than it is with way over the hill Mack the silver tongued devil.

2025 recruiting....

The Carolina Way has not one thing to do with big time talent! This shows you have absolutely no understanding of what the Family really means! The Carolina Way deals with a way of carrying oneself and treating others. It is an ethos requiring one to be the best one can be as a person! The great news is when you focus on being the best person you can be, this includes things like work ethic, team first, caring for team mates; putting the name on the front before the name on the back, coachability, character, grit, etc and these things often translate to success on AND off the court!
Secondly, "Greater than the sum of its parts" also means one can't simply play video game logic and say put these great talents on the floor and voila wins come! Sometimes peeps have to sublimate their games. Sometimes they have to play positions that might not be optimal; sometimes they have to do the dirty work and allow others to shine; sometimes I have to be a pass first PG not the scoring phenom I was in HS. We have to stop with the shallow perusal of peeps' statements and actually think about the substance!
Thirdly, trying to put together a team full of 5*s is certainly looking for Flash! And I never said anything about fielding a team full of 3*s. Yeah our successful teams had talent BUT they also had glue guys/vets that participated and provided that edge in practice or stepped up when needed!
UNC builds teams with intent; puke throws talent together and hopes for the best!

OOTB's Political Thread . ..

Springfield has been in decline for decades. If not for politicians like Dewine, it would of ended out like every over hollowed out rural community.

Of course like every over community there needs to be adjustments to the growth but the greater good for most is the growth.

It's unfortunate that other politicians like trump/jv vance, who root for the demise of this country, would take a success story like Springfield and turn it into a racist wedge issue. But that's just par for the course.

Jesus….dont you idiots get tired of crying wolf? “It’S rAcIsT!”, “YoU’rE a BiGoT!”, “tRaNsPhObE!” “THrEaT tO dEmOcRaCY!”

A lot of cope coming for you in November.

OOTB's Political Thread . ..

Now, if only Dewine was a regular citizen who lived in Springfield, you'd be on to something. This is a bit like the rich people who tell everyone else that they need to drive an electric car and not use a gas stove, while their limo takes them to the jet they own and flies them to their private island where their chef is preparing dinner in his commercial grade kitchen, all while their private security bodyguards protect them with firearms.

Whether Dewine truly cares for Haitians, this may end up being a good thing five or ten years from now when everything has been torqued up to deal with it all. But for now, it's just typical of a government "solution" that creates all kinds of other unintended problems and the incredible shit show that the residents are living through. And that's best case. I happen to think it's much less noble.
