By dust settling I mean after we have made the NIL offers we're willing to pay to keep each player - or, conversely, after we have encouraged people to move on.
Who Do You Expect to Return?
- Thread starter What Would Jesus Do?
- Start date
A couple of weeks ago I expected Drake to return. Now that he's playing his natural position, I'm less sanguine. He should definitely enter the draft to see what they say - but might still return.
Who should think about transferring?
Cade
Jalen
Seth
Elliot
I don't actually expect Jalen, Seth or Elliot to enter the portal, but they might want to think about it. Unless Hubert has plans to give Cade a bigger role, he should leave.
Elliot and Seth have starting roles next season. Theirs to lose, at a minimum.
Seth briefly entered the portal last season and then changed his mind. He's having a good year, so I imagine he's happy here. But will we offer as much NIL as other schools? And if he enters the draft, will he stay in the draft?
Cade

No way you can have a starting backcourt of Seth and EC….They can’t make shots…
With all the talk about increased NIL, I assume we won't lose anyone we actually want to a competing school. But is that true?
While I agree both are hesitant jump shooters from trey, both have shown that they can and do score. I think we do need a quality back up PG that can play 20mins because Cadeau has not shown he can stay away from foul trouble, I can't assume he magically will as a Jr. And even if some how he does we have no guarantee right now he will stay at UNC, momma does not seem real happy and you know how that works out many times.
Keep this in mind, we have a couple freshmen on the way that committed before Wilson did. Denis is nice but I think he may take a year or 2 but Derrick Dixon, that kid can shoot, I think he may surprise a lot of folks early in.
Seth has gotten quite good. But will he still be that good when he's being targeted as a starter? I'm betting on Seth, but time will tell.
If Cade leaves, we'll need a SF from the portal. If Cade and Drake both leave, we'll need 2.
Yes Seth can play SF in a small ball lineup but, speaking only for myself, I'm done with small ball (except as an occasional tactic).

If we land a starter-quality big - or 2 - will JWash and Lubin both stick around? Will they be happy here coming off the bench behind Wilson and the portal guy(s)?
I don't want to lose either of them, but I can understand if they want to check the grass on the other side of the hill.

If the GM and Front Office does their job, we'll be getting a starting center from the portal. Which would mean both Lubin and Washington would be fighting for back up center minutes their senior year.
What a great topic ? I was just thinking about that last night. I believe both Powell and Jackson should go the NBA camp find out what the experts think about their game and when the smoke clears Powell will come back. As much as Lubin has improved since the start of the new year I would also like to see a horse be brought in to play in the paint.
