OOTB Carolina Basketball Discussion Thread
- Thread starter carolinablue34
- Start date
On April 3, 2023 at almost midnight, GG and his family will be watching Carolina players
cut down nets at NRG Stadium in Houston. He'll shake his head morosely and
mutter......."...that could be me right now...."
And not one Tar Heel fan on planet Earth will be thinking 'bout him or his momma.

I’m sure it is. But he will almost certainly make less money in his life for having attended SoCar over Carolina.
perhaps…but these kids aren’t thinking about ten years from now, especially since nil is here.
Thanks for sharing man. Gotta give SC credit on thinking ahead. That Plus its the kids hometown is a hard daily dbl to beat.
it’s not going to get them elite status imo, but it sure makes you wonder how large the gray areas are for nil.
Big time. Especially now where sports agencies, for lack of a better term, are signing HSers
So thoughts on blue white scrimmage?
Maye instant fan fav hitting a few 3s
9nly saw the highted version. Looks like we have the potential to fill the bucket. Hopefully leaky will remain the lockdown defender he has been and not focus to heavy on his shot.
Good to see a ball go thru a hoop!!!

Didn't watch, but looking forward to radar talking about Maye becoming as good as his brother and a possible all ACC player.
I hope the best for maye. Heard he was good till his injuries. All we need is a fierce competition in practice and a game winning 3 against Kentucky his senior year and he will be legend.
I appreciate the enthusiasm and there's a lot of reason to be hopeful of a great season.
The idea of mimicking the '82 SI cover was clever and, inspiring. But... it might have been a little more convincing if HD had a few more seasons under his belt. If HD has a sophomore season flop, it's going to be perpetual fodder for ridicule.

I’m curious, what would you consider a flop this season? The expectation, after last season and the roster on paper, is a natty. Would anything but that be a flop?
I’m not trying to be a dick, I’m genuinely asking. I don’t really know what I think of the answer myself.
I don't really know, either. He's got all the personnel he needs. He's had one season and about 3/4 of that season was pretty bad. They finally got it on-track in the last month. Now, granted, once it got going, it went about as far as it could possibly go. It became one of the most memorable seasons in the history of the program. But... it's not Dean Smith 1982-level. DES had become a bonafide legend by '82, from 20 years of being a successful head coach.
He just got the extension. I guess whoever is in charge believes he's got what it takes. I just hope he and his staff can keep it more like March 22 and not November/December/January and February. I feel more confident than I did last season, for sure. I wonder what RW thought when he saw the SI facsimile. I know Roy would have NEVER done that, no matter how good his team might have been. I don't expect a repeat in the NCAAT. I hope the Heels are in the top 2-3 in the ACC, at least.
ETA: I really wanna see Armando to get his jersey in the rafters. He should have been ACCPOY last year.

premium depth, long and athletic, seasoned vets…the only things that would derail this train are injuries and dudes feeling left out.
by all accounts, this is a close group…tyler nickel is getting accroy hype,

I'm actually curious to see what Scheyer-face, and his staff, are able to do with that vaunted program and the fresh group of ringer OADs that will be forgotten after one season.
Don’t be surprised if they steal one, or two, Eddo. It’s still the same rivalry. We’ll be the better program at the end. Bet on that.
trimble, tho…he’s kinda special as well.
Pretty interesting to see what potential depth they have this year compared to the iron 5 last year.
Dunn and Styles look better this year and Leaky looks a lot smoother and not so gangly and herky jerky on offense.
And with Nickel and Nance they should have enough shooting from their wings and shooting forward spots to make up for Manek - which are really big shoes to fill.
His finger was in a splint. I think they said that if it were a reg season game he would have played. Puff Johnson wasn't dressed to play, either.
Very generous. We mostly sucked.
Everyone saying how great our defense was isn't really taking into account that UNCW's offense was also god awful.
Love still seems to be the same disinterested Love. He'll hit the big shot but would we need the big shot if he played to his potential 98% of the time? Need to figure out how to get Nance involved. And I don't see Hubert expanding his bench much.
Tough game. They pressured all night and Love was lackadaisical with the ball. Looked disinterested. Nance will take a little time to assimilate and we were without 2 guys who will be part of the rotation. Our defense really picked up throughout the game. Not worried about our offense. That will be running on all cylinders soon enough.
However, there’s no doubt we’re going to miss Manek. You just can’t substitute his shooting. Other observations
Seth Trimble is going to be an absolute nightmare for opposing teams. His ability to pressure the ball is remarkable and his athleticism is a welcomed addition.
Nickel cannot guard anything. Nice help defense though when he got that block.
Dunn looks better and more athletic than I recall seeing last year.
Styles, ooof. I’m worried about him. His performance was ugly and was immediately pulled and Sat the rest of the game.
Bacot’s hair was worse than Styles’ play.
If we’re to win the title this year, it will be because Davis has leveled up to being the best player on our team.

Yeah, Bacot went in the wrong direction on this one. If I was starting over with this team Davis and Bacot would be my first 2 picks.
