I Am Thoroughly Disgusted

[UNCTarheel1984]

... with my impatience. I want what I know this team can be and I want it now. I want another title run for Berry, Pinson, and Maye. I want Kenny Williams, Seventh Woods, and Jalek Felton to reach their potential. I want Cam Johnson to be a hero. I want Manley, Brooks and Huffman to develop into Meeks and Hicks. I want it all and I want it now!

And I want to learn for myself to trust Coach Williams. Like my daily struggle with leaving my burdens to Jesus Christ, I need to be patient and trust Coach Williams as he teaches and molds and leads these players toward the greatness that lies within them.

It's tough to sit and watch sometimes especially when your rival is having a good season so far but we did win it all last year so to me that makes this season alittle easier

Luke mentioned they needed a sense of urgency ... but l believe its more than that .... it has to become a matter of life and death! But this team is obviously content with the NC last year ... so theyve got toget real hungry again, and lm not certain they can get there after today!!!

PS ... Roy, to my knowledge, hasnt walked on water yet! Hes done some mighty wonderful things and somehow hes got to put the fear in them!
When l joined theMarines many years ago, l remember they got mt atention the first night l arrived at Quantico! I didnt know whether to zchyzt or go blind!!!

BTW, tell God ro give you patience and give it to you right now!!!

That may be my favorite post since....ever!

Like the entire Tar Heel Nation I wish we got a win today. We didn't. I am glad we're the National Champions! I've truly enjoyed the last 277 days as champions. Especially since I live in Kansas City and most of my co-workers are Jayhawks. The early results increase my expectations. Unfortunately, with a very young front line we're limited. If you only have to guard our wings with no real low post threat it makes playing defense that much easier. This is probably not our year but I trust in Coach Williams that we'll be back on the road to a championship real soon. Go Tar Heels!!!!

Just like that the rival down the street has same conf record that we do. Two road losses to inferior competition, geez. Sky is falling in chapel hill though, keep missing on these recruits. Losing in january... cant keep the smile off my face, defending national champs!

His posts are so ridiculous I almost look forward to reading them.

I could tell in the first half how this game was going to end. Same old routine, guys playing hero ball (7 assists), RW sitting there looking frustrated, "coaching"!! As usual he saves his timeouts, for what I'm not sure!

Sadly, I don't think calling any timeouts would've helped.

As I see it, our major problem is a lack of talent, due mainly to the painfully-long NCAA investigation. How many of our players are projected to be drafted in the 2018 NBA draft (according to nbadraft.net). Zero. How about the 2019 NBA draft ? Again, zero.

I think that we will get somewhat better as time goes on this year, but Maye, Pinson, and Berry are all very good college players, but they have likely plateaued. Williams and Johnson will get better and more consistent. Brooks, Manley and Huffman are actual 3* talent, and may be important contributors as Juniors and Seniors, but I don't see any major improvement this year.

Our team will get better and more competitive gradually, but it will take time, likely 3-4 years. No matter what, I will continue to cheer for my Heels !!

I wanted to win the powerball, but it didn't go my way.

I'm not sure if you were expecting a national title run, but if you were expecting one after losing 2 first round picks and 4 of your top 6 players last year... and replaced them with an ok grad transfer and a bunch of recruits who are likely (or should be at least) 3 or 4 year developmental players.... then reel in those expectations.

This team is actually probably where it should be right now excluding the Wofford embarrassment.

 

[dadika13]

We won a natty last year. Anything we do this year is just gravy on top.

I had no expectations coming into the year because you can't lose Meeks, Hicks, Justin and expect to be great again.

 

[midline]

Some things cannot be fixed. Some can. The turnover issue can obviously be addressed. But the lack of an effective inside game cannot. Hopefully one of the freshman bigs will begin to assert themselves as the year goes on, but currently it doesn’t look good. Maye has performed better than one would anticipate from a walk on, but he is more comfortable on the perimeter offensively than the play in the lane that Roy’s offense has counted on over the years. Would be much better without the unexpected defection of last years freshman big man, as I doubt they never figured he would leave. I assume that they will get better as the year goes on. If they make the round of sixteen that may be the tops of what this team is capable of. And if they don’t find solutions to issues they can control, just making the NCAA might be a struggle

Bradley was another huge loss for this team. I've said before, the Heels are the defending National Champions, the investigation is done forever and we have a top 10 recruiting class coming in next year. I'm fine with whatever happens this season.

 

[Spaceytoyz]

With this team just Win the next 4 minutes until the TV timeout and play hard, we better be glad Berry stayed and Johnson came a board to keep us at least in the running..

The purpose of my post was the second paragraph. The first paragraph is aspirational. The second paragraph is an acknowledgement of my (and most of our) frustrations with our unrealistic expectations of teenagers - even talented ones - gelling into a potentially championship team (or even a winning one). Listen to what Coach Williams says about his frustrations with fans' unrealistic expectations and shortsightedness and his own frustrations with teaching teenagers to play the game the Carolina way. In acknowledging the struggle I allow insight into both my passion and my understanding of the difficulties this team faces.

UNC basketball teams are never suppose to have bad days/games. God forbid against a strong defensive top 10 ranked team.
