2025 recruiting....

I will believe it when I see it with the past few years as a barometer.
Truthfully though, just looking at our current roster before portal interest comes into play, why wouldn't Wilson think he should start at the 4 from day 1?
If money is equal, I am a Tar Heel.

Travis Branham now believes UNC is the favorite for Wilson
 
Pretty much nobody else is saying that including our own David Sisk.

Not true. Another sites insider who is well respected said he is close to putting a prediction for UNC due to information from his source. Also mentioned Ian Jacksons recent success being a factor as well.
 
Here's the question I've raised in the past about Caleb. I'm looking at his stats on MaxPreps. He's shooting 26% from 3pt range his senior season. He shot 31% from 3 as a junior. So my question is, does he fit the stretch 4 role in Hubert's offense? Hubert's most successful stretches have come with Manek lighting it up from 3, and Ingram setting a career high from 3. But when we had Nance or Leaky or Puff or Styles playing the PF spot, and shooting poorly from 3, our offense struggled.

If we beat the odds and land Wilson, his natural fit is at the 4 spot in college. But he doesn't look like a good fit as a stretch 4. Do we completely retool the offense around him? Do we try to force a round peg into a square hole? Do we maybe try playing him at SF and let him overpower wings that guard him?

I know I’m on ignore by him so he’s not going to read this, but damn this dude can find a way to turn a positive into a negative. We might be about to get one of those 5 stars he says we can’t get anymore. SMH.

I have been saying that if I had a choice between Caleb Wilson or getting Zayden High back as a RS Sophomore, I would rather have Zayden. I would be good with both though.
I think Wilson will be good in time, but I don't think he is 1 and done good by any means. There is a lot of immaturity to his game, although I think he improved a great deal this past summer in that aspect.

High damn near set the UNC record for foul rate. He's got a lot of work to do if he even wants to be able to stay on the court.

There's a reason Caleb Wilson is a top rated recruit and a projected lottery pick. He's oozing with talent. I just think the stats show he doesn't currently shoots the 3 well enough to play the stretch 4 role in Hubert's offense. But if we pull off a miracle and actually beat Kentucky for him, there is surely some sort of role where we can make use of his talent. Likely a starting role.

BTW, is Zayden High back enrolled at UNC? His suspension by the honor court was only for fall semester.
