Can’t rebound can’t hit free throws can’t hit threes. Blame it on the NIL, blame it on Hubert, blame it on the players it don’t matter. Other then the fact this product fu**ing sucks!!
Carolina vs Florida gam thread in Charlotte—Tuesday 17 Dec 2024
- Thread starter IDUNK4HEELS
- Start date
On selection Sunday, nobody gives a crap about the score. It’s another Quad 1 loss that Carolina needed to win.
Coaching staff cannot figure out how to coach this team and get them ready at tipoff.

Stupid Gator foul putting Cadeau on the line but it makes no difference as Cadeau misses and Florida gets two more fts to end it 90-84
I'm starting a NIL fund. It's called surely we can do better than Washington, Withers, Lubin, and Claude. It's entirely dedicated to getting a Carolina level center.
I said in the office season we would be a bubble team come early March, now I'm thinking we will be lucky to even be on the bubble in early March.
We’d be 10-1 if Harrison Ingram had returned 
This whole thing is pretty disheartening, no matter who you blame (there is plenty to go around).
In a game defined by toughness, I'm not sure why Washington played over Claude. Every time a rebound went up, Washington was being shoved in the back or side, and Florida would get the rebound. Claude isn't so easily moved and we desperately needed some rebounds. They missed 2 free throws in a row, and what should have been an easy UNC board ended up in Florida's hands and a few seconds later they got an and-one.
I thought we hit on something against LaSalle. Start Lubin, back him up with Claude, Brown, and then Washington as 4th string.

Wonder how much NIL would cost to make that happen. What's a two-way contract worth these days? $500k?We’d be 10-1 if Harrison Ingram had returned
RJ is almost back. The only guy in double figures in the first half, and 1 of just 2 (along with Jackson) in the 2nd. But faltered at the end.
I like our chances against UCLA if he keeps inching back.
It would be nice to be competitive against good foes in the first half, though.

The catch phrase for Carolina sports “if”We’d be 10-1 if Harrison Ingram had returned
6-5. Very possibly looking at 6-6 with another ranked team on Saturday.
3rd time in 4 years we’ll spend at least a month unranked (we began season ranked in all 3).
Likely looking at another roster overhaul after this year.
The program is in much worse shape than some on here care to admit.

Seems like the Heels have started out being ranked early on only to wet the bed lately this is becoming very frustrating
That's a given. RJ, Withers, and Claude are out of eligibility. Jackson and Powell will turn pro. Trimble will at least test the waters (his brother left after 3 years with low draft stock.) Washington and Tyson are both heading for the portal (both seem better suited for a midmajor conference.) That's most of the scholarship players right there.
He’s a top 15 pick in nearly every mock draft I’ve seen. It wouldn’t make much sense to come back.
I agree, and both must be on the court to close out games. Cadeau, I probably still start him, but he and R.J can't both be on the floor down the stretch.
Davis, Trimble, Jackson, Lubin and then either Powell,/ Tyson. Probably offense for defense.
He is from a Carolina family.
I don't think he wants his legacy to be 6 months and 5ppg in his Carolina career.
He will be a lottery pick with another year as a " Dude"
Especially when he realizes Hubert has no idea what he's doing and it'll only be worse next year
Let's be real, ain't nobody turning down a lottery pick to comeback to Carolina's weak a** NIL. Belichick's NIL could afford to pay Powell enough to come back. But that $20 mill is for football.
It’s not a Lottery pick on this team…None and I mean zero….
Fire Hubert and it solves a lot of your problems and things open up quite a bit.
It’s more than $20m …and the b-ball program is going to see an increase in NIL too, but that increase may be largely contingent on a new HC.
If you're right, next year's roster looks like
Cadeau
Seth (maybe)
Dixon
Denis
Lubin
Brown
I have my doubts that Cadeau returns, but if he does, we have a solid back court with promising backups at both slots.
We're going to need some starter-quality players from the portal. At least 5. Most (all?) SF and bigger.
I have never felt like boosters or who ever the NIL money comes from just refused to spend money.
Are you implying that they didn't like the hire from the start and won't release money or that they have grown tired of this experience and are holding on to their money now?
Just like Mack, Hubert is / was never going to get the full boat.
I’m not sure those conversations have started yet, but I do know one strong opinion that exists with a few folks at the top: if UNC and a big NIL commitment can get Belichick out of retirement, Jay Wright is certainly within the realm of possibility.
Had we have made the right hire we would have kept rolling and wpuld not have been in this down turn.
One person made that decision. That won’t happen next time around.
