Thank you Hubert

We don't have a single starting big on the roster. Not a UNC caliber starting big.

It has wrecked our team all year. And dook's talent advantage up front was clear tonight. Lubin and Withers can put up good numbers against bad ACC teams. But against good teams you see just how outclassed they are. Withers bricking his shots. Lubin fumbling the ball, struggling to get rebounds, and being invisible on defense. And don't get me started on Washington giving up every layup that was attempted near him tonight.

We need to spend big NIL money this offseason on bigs. Caleb Wilson simply isn't enough. We need a starting center and a primary backup big.
 
Their best player has 3 fouls and for 18 minutes you do NOTHING to try to get his 4th.

If that’s not fireable I don’t know what is.

The end of UNC being a hoops power is being authored by that man.
We ran multiple plays attacking Flagg. Did you even watch the game? How many times did we set double screens that resulted in Lubin going straight at Flagg in the 2nd half? He got multiple layups and multiple missed layups attacking Flagg. We also got Trimble downhill attacking Flagg.

Withers attacking Flagg was about the ugliest thing we saw in the second half, but that happened too.

Look dook is the same team it has always been, reliant on the 3..tonite they clanged and bounced two in in the first half then that long haired guy throws two in in the second.. he was 2of 10... this year.....they ain't winning the title. We struggled all year because we have zero inside power on offense and defense.
 
Agree ever teach your players to pump fake and get the defender in the air to foul you? Could have done that endless times and drawn the fourth foul on Flagg and the other guy with dreadlocks. But no we play dribble iso hero ball. Our coach is BAD and we now have him for longer smfh

Hubcaps coaching didn't help any but once again our terrible outside shooting reared it's ugly head. By the same token we took some incredibly bad shots because of this groups usual loss of focus on doing the things that got us in the game and a lead at one point. Point fingers all you want but there isn't really one single person to blame because at the end of the night this is simply not a very good team for 40 minutes.

I think many of the "bad" shots were because we could not get "good" looks. We are a limited get your shot team, dook has length and defended. Who besides RJ and Ian, can create a shot when the ball is moved for your scorer to work.

Elliot Cadeau was a major problem tonight. No threat, and was not going to create with the caliber and length of defenders he faced, knowing he was not a threat to score. With him on the floor, extra tiny alongside RJ on dee as well.

It was a damn gallant effort, we hit tough contested shots, best our "scorers" could get, cause we do not have many worry about me threats. Knocked a bunch down, contested. RJ was a DAWG !!! They were going to get better looks with our lack of size, and multiple scoring threats, and they did.

glad to see we gave him an extension LOL. nothing changed. we won 6 in a row against bottom tier teams and some of you didn’t want to see it for what it was. boys played hard today but were outmatched and out coached. pretty much the story of the season.
 
If EC was a knock down shooter then he could pull it off at that height but he’s being slacked off of so he’s not getting by the defender now

Trimble is a great back up and 6th man but not a starter

I’m a portal believer I’d pay Ian and Drake whatever they want bring in Caleb and the 2 other freshmen and dump the rest of the team and add 8 portal players

Ian and Drake are the two who have the pro option.

Truth is there are only a few players at best on this team who really deserve wearing the North Carolina jersey and that starts with the coach.

We are stuck like chuck with him now
 
We could still win the ACCT. And maybe getting to the championship game would be good enough.

But if the NIT is the best we can do, I hope we accept this time.
If we get to the Finals easily in, since that would almost guarenteed mean beating dook in the semis.

Boise and SD State play an eliminator game in round 1 of the Mountain West, Xavier must win against Marquette in their 1st game in Big East. Ohio State must win 1st game against capable USC.

UNC still with a 40 NET, if they beat ND/PITT then Wake, they have a solid chance of getting in still. Gotta worry about bid stealers though winning their way in even with that scenario.
