Dave says that we are not getting the money because the bosters are holding on to their money because they didn't like the hire and holding their money is their way of protesting.
He also says that the reason thy sucked the year after the NC run was because he didn't have Brady. That team the year after the NC had talent but just like this year he has no clue what to do with it.
His teams have chemistry problems doesn't matter the roster he is always the common denominator! His players are slow to develop or regress constantly.
notshelby, what we should be asking is has there been a $$$ problem AND is there now a money problem? To often reading replies on this topic folks conflate what maybe the situation before to what it looks like now. This $$$ question is fluid, what may have been true yesterday may not be true today?
Consider, Hubert, going in to the portal, how could he not realize that getting a big man that could at very least handle the physicality of opposing big men? How could he not know that a big man like this had to be priority numbers 1-10? LOL Keep in mind, High was already out of the equation, the staff knew what was coming down from High on High, so can't say well he thought he had High, no, that was already done pre-portal. The ONLY possible answer is a complete failure in talent evaluation, making you believe you had more than you actually had.
Considering the guys, other than TYson, that Hubert went after hard as well as what was in my opinion half heartedly, he seemed to realize the glaring need for a big time center. A couple of his priorities either didn't enter the portal or did but didn't stay in it long, maybe he felt he could delay till those guys did enter, bad decision but to an extent I could have understood it. But where he blew it so badly, is he didn't go hard for a back up plan guy to have in hand when he didn't know what plan A guys would end up doing. For example, duke had Masquch the big center coming in but not knowing how he would play they went ahead and brought in the Cuse's center as insurance, Hubert did not take out insurance of maybe a guy like Wolf, ect. In the end the insurance was badly needed but those ships had already sailed. We needed 2 big men, we end up with 2 6'7-8" big men that are both extremely limited and we got those in near desperation. You walked a tight rope without a net and guess what, you fell off the rope, splat!
Just want to add, you said "He also says that the reason thy sucked the year after the NC run was because he didn't have Brady. "... Isn't it funny how folks tend to sing the praise of that first season of Hubert and seem to totally forget that before we beat duke that first time there were legit questions of will UNC miss the NCAAT that season?
