The Biggest Fish in the Pond Visits North Carolina This Weekend
- Thread starter andrew jones
- Start date
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.
Take all the UNC Football NIL money and give it to hoops.
We don't need to be paying players who give up 70 points to JMU. We can field a team for free and accomplish that.
Take it from macks retirement fund
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.

We are squarely in the mix for AJ
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.
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!
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.
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.
Name the last UNC team that contended and won the conference with zero 5-star recruits and zero McDonald's All Americans on the roster.
Thing about ponds that we folk from the south know all to well, the biggest fish in our ponds is a cat fish. So, are we cat fishin or being cat fished? Now I do love me a good ole mess of cat fish, fried up just right makes my mouth water! But I am not a fan of being cat fished.
