The Biggest Fish in the Pond Visits North Carolina This Weekend

I am not gonna hold my breath on this fella
The last year has basically told the whole world that UNC's NIL isn't good enough to land the type of recruits that have sustained UNC basketball for the past 60 years.

Something has got to change quickly or '25-'26 is going to be an embarrassing season.

UNC Basketball can't end up being like UNC Football but will if UNC NIL packages don't increase.
 
Pretty ugly today. They made the JMU QB look like a Heisman candidate: nearly 400yds, 5TD's, almost 100yds rushing with another 2 TDs. Those are some absurd stats. That is direct attribution of 42pts, nay, 44 including the 2pt conversion. UNC as a team only outscored him by 6pts.

That said, I think something like the kenan circus on Saturday has much less effect on a basketball recruit than a football recruit. Just think about all of the basketball success we've had since mack left the first time.

I'll take "In the Mix" any day of the week! I believe Hubs is a true closer and I love how we are back on the lists of every top recruit!

Go Tar Heels!

Not holding my breath. I have seen this movie before. UNC will make the final cut, it will seem like he's headed our way and will opt for a bigger paycheck at the last minute. Lather, rinse, repeat.
 
2nd step: UNC will continue to field contending teams and lead the conference and lead the NCAA!

This is what I see that fits the description: Lather, rinse, repeat!
 
Word is that Carolina just has to be in the ballpark with NIL, I just don’t know if Carolina can get in the ballpark. All indications are that he loved his visit and his family loved it. If this were a basketball only decision, I think Carolina would land him.
What is the "Ballpark" figure?

If we only lose RJ, and Ian Jackson next year (Keep EC). I think AJ is worth whatever. If EC transfers or goes pro, we need that money spread out.
