Carolina at Wake Forest game thread on: Tuesday 7 February 2023.

We've played a bunch of teams much better than Wake. Bama is #5 in Kenpom. UVA, IU, and Iowa State are all top 20. All of those games were much closer than this one. Acting as though this game is all that matters this season is, well, dumb.
Mack Brown has no idea what you mean. he has that look a whole lot, and he just got an extension.
This team has played so that Lunardi just said at the Half that if Wake goes on the win, he might drop UNC from a #9 seed to the bubble.
Gotcha.
But those decent efforts seem like a lifetime ago
. What do you see or predict that is going to snap this team out of the humiliating spectacular suckitude of: players who combo little talent and zero effort, along with a coach who looks and acts like a guy who’s never even watched a basketball game before, let alone play or coach one?
No its not.
No Brady and that's not a good thing for the coaches or players if they are the same team.
Can someone in the know- unc 75, gary please explain why Caleb is still on the floor?
How can it get worse???
Well, if they lose to Clemson at home on Saturday, which is likely. And, I dunno if they will win many more games the way they are playing. These guys look lost. I dunno WTF happened, but they have totally checked-out.
75 can't tell ya because he's a former player on the inside and can't divulge former player inside stuff
that tattoo story is perfect example of this team…lots of fluff with this org.
We're down 14 as I type, with RJ shooting horribly even on open 3s and 3-4 missed layups. We could easily be down single digits with a couple made shots, on the road. You'd think the sky is falling by some of these messages.
Nothing about this season makes me think the team is particularly good, and I don't expect them to play like a top 10 team this year. But we're not horrible, and I don't think we're going to get blown out much the rest of the way either.
Last year, UNC shot 35.8% for the season
This year 154 for 500. That’s 30%
Considering the volume of three point shots.
Grasshoppers will learn
Let's remember, recruiting has been down the last few years. Instead of supplementing the Love/Davis class with other top players we've got Dunn, Styles, Washington, Trimble. These are projects who may be contributors as upperclassmen. There's nothing especially talented about this team by UNC standards; it's two five stars (Bacot and Caleb, the latter of which never panned out unfortunately outside a couple tournament games) and a bunch of guys.
RJ has overachieved his ranking but the rest of the team (minus Love) has done about what you'd expect. If Baylor had hit a couple more shots in the tourney last year and beat us nobody would be so shocked by this team's fate.

I'd they played as hard the whole game as they did in the last 3 minutes they would be okay
Piss poor press conference on the radio not sure if there’s another one…seemed to be cut short after waiting about 45 minutes
