Great to see the proceeds going to help the storm victims.
Also great to see the scalpers are getting absolutely screwed on this. They bought up tons of tickets for the Cherokee event, and you can still see them listed on StubHub for as much as $415 per ticket. Sorry scalpers, it's $10 to get into the Dean Dome and it's general admission. Nobody is buying your tickets and you aren't getting a refund.

That is great news for the fans but the big question that needs to be addressed is will there be fan buses running from the Friday center since much of the fleet will be needed to bring people back from the football game
Hubert liked Ven-Allen Lubin right away because he’s versatile and can do stuff inside and outside, and even though he’s not as big as Armando, but he can finish at the rim
What does he expect from RJ, maybe some differences? Hubert said he’d be fine if he did the same thing but says he’s been a better leader this offseason
Hubert wants the team playing faster than ever before but eh said in practice they aren’t there yet. He said he’s told the team they want to be the fastest team in the country ffrom baseline to baseline
--Hubert on Ian Jackson: “He’s gifted and his ability to do things in the open court is real.”
Hubert says Elliot Cadeau’s progression has been huge, but in two areas: he’s “knocking down shots all over the place,” and his “overall leadership is off the charts.” Also said Elliot is constantly working in the gym
Hubert says a combination of Elliot getting reps and tweaks in his shot - tightening the screws”
= to why he’s increased his accuracy
= to why he’s increased his accuracy
On JWash Hubert says his first year was really rehab but he’s gotten more confident and has been their best rebounder, screener, best running big, is doing well off ball screens, attacking the offensive glass, and shoots well from the outside.
Hubert said JWash is “adorable” but doesn’t want him being adorable on the floor. “GHe’s put himself in a position to have a chance to be a major contributor this year”
Hubert said Cade Tyson playing the four could happen but with so much versatility he can play the three and really just play basketball
Hubert said JWit has really done a great job of stacking good says doing the little things as well as dynamic things and is “playing at a high level right now”
Hubert says Drake Powell “checks boxes all over the place” in terms of making impact plays
Hubert says what was attractive about Cade Tysen was “his ability to shoot the basketball is real” plus he can do so many things on the floor, small things and big things. Says he’s a really good rebounder.
@andrew jones - Love the bullet points. Keep them coming.
I do this for the premium board all the time, but thought I'd do it over here for a change.
JWash is our starting 5 and it would be self-defeating to do anything else.
Look guys. I'm giving away several 3-month gift premium subscriptions prior to the start of the season. Just be the first to answer 3 easy questions about Campus NIL each week. Already have awarded 2 winners.
Thanks AJ for throwing us a bone!
Seems like almost all of the questions we had have been answered very positively! I really hope we don't have to play Cade at 4 at all. He is too valuable on the wing. Just the threat of him being out there ready to shoot will deform defense! Full speed ahead and bring peeps out in waves please! Use the all D team to harass peeps full court and the jumbo to beat them up!

I would think so…I remember the Blue and White game was always played on the Saturday of a football game in Chapel Hill…I think after the game you could take the bus straight to the Smith Center or we may have walked…It’s been over 20 years so I am not sure…I smoke the flower a lot lol….
If I remember the Cade interview clip correctly, he seemed to be saying that while he's ready to play the 4 if needed, he expects to play mostly at the 3.
I hope that's correct.
But, yes, if Ian and Drake are as good as we hope, we do need to find PT for them. And the obvious places are at SG and SF.
So maybe this is the year when RJ only plays 30 minutes - because we don't need him to play 35. Then again that only frees up 5 minutes. But it's a start. Here's just one of many possible approximations.
Some don't want RJ to play PG any more. So if he plays all his 30 at SG, who backs up Elliot? Seth? Ian?
| Player | PG | SG | SF | PF |
| Elliot | 30 | -- | -- | -- |
| RJ | 10 | 20 | -- | -- |
| Seth | -- | 10 | 5 | -- |
| Ian | -- | 10 | 5 | -- |
| Drake | -- | -- | 10 | -- |
| Cade | -- | -- | 25 | 5 |
And that right there is why Cade will have to play most stretch 4 (and seriously we've got to get away from calling it Power Forward because that is simply not the way Hubert uses the 4 spot.)
Trimble didn't pull his name out of the portal to come back and play LESS minutes than he averaged as a sophomore (he played just over 17 mins per game.)
Drake Powell is currently wowing NBA scouts and may be a top 10 pick next June based on his potential, and you've got him playing 10 minutes a game.
Ian Jackson is 100% going to be in the draft next June, scouts believe he should be the 2nd leading scorer on UNC's team, and you've got him playing 15 minutes per game.
The main job of the stretch 4 in Hubert's system is to stretch the floor with shooting. We were elite when Brady Manek was at the 4. We were elite when Harrison Ingram shot a career high 3pt % at the 4. We were mediocre when Pete Nance was bricking wide open looks while playing the 4. Everything is pointing towards Cade Tyson filling that role this year.
Most likely.
If practice is an indicator, Hubert has finally committed to a tempo that will require the usage of our legt (10-deep) depth.
TBH, Cadeau should lead this team in minutes, but the 35 minute thing in general should mostly be a thing of the past.
