I think having consistency and keeping most of the unit is key to success and one reason the oline did not fall apart despite all the injuries. Was it 11 different combinations? Have to give credit to the O-line coach also. but... an aging unit, probably mean a higher risk of injuries. So with a unit of 9 players, cant just add vets to the group. Then you probably end up with having to draft multiple players some drafts.

Snowed a lot in Wilmington as of 2am

Okie dokie brokie.

Man, I wish I could comment more educated on this. Seems like you nailed it. Like I said, I haven't really followed it since like 2016 when my company did an exclusive Finn Balor metal die cast toy figure with Toys R Us. That seems like when it all died.

I think we agree that the system is fuged up. And I agree any team on the wrong side of what Mensah did would be pissed. I don't agree with what Mensah did, being a 46 year old, well off, white dad of a 5 year old. I, like you, would want my son to honor a commitment he made. But our reality is different from theirs, and that forces unpopular decisions and moves. And I'll probably have to make some of those, maybe not as public as this, but I can be empathetic to it. The whole thing was handled poorly by Mensah's family / team, but talent barks way louder than mistakes. Sad, but the world we live in. I'll be back in Chapel Hill for the Halloween game vs Miami in 2026, so I hope we burn his season down.

What's the reason behind the court and jerseys? Even down and out years I see Hornets gear in NYC all the time just because it's nice colors for the lids people and sneaker heads

Nijman and BC will cost between $7 and $8m. Mays will be around $10-12m. If we are not going to upgrade at LT, we probably need to at C---but I am high on Mays.

Yeah. WWE is suffering horribly from top star fatigue. What I mean by that is other than Cody and Punk, they don’t have a mix of stars and legacy talent under HHH. Brock and Roman show up from time to time. Cena is gone. Stone cold rock and taker only show up rarely anymore. Jey USO is a mid card. Gunther is completely rejected by the fans. No one wants him as the top heel. They need true legacy or heels. Seth is a great heel but he is hurt. The fact HHH won’t push La Knight is mind boggling seeing how over he is. The woman’s division is poo at best. Rhea is cool. Charlotte is boring now. Becky is utter boring. Bayley could be great but they won’t push her. The rest are boring. HHH has major egg on his face with having the Saudies build a 50k stadium and 35 showed up. The product is 2016 bad right now. It needs stars pushed and legacy characters. It’s bad. It’s worse than I could imagine. They peaked under hhh in 23-24 and it’s gone down hill since.

if you're betting on a pro bowl, you've already lost big

Yeah and she got a scholarship and nil at Miami

It’s going to be the same ole same ole each year. They keep getting smaller vs bigger. Maybe Rod is coaching well, but maybe actually get him…his style players.

Smaller? They are basically the same size.

Not sure you can blame the front office there. We had 3 OL have the equivalent of season ending injuries between Hunt, BC, and Icky despite having a good unit IMO. Now... I do blame the front office drafting RBs and old college busts (DJ) when we had more pressing needs

Interesting. Curious how far back those stats date? I feel like medical advances have helped overcome bad injuries a lot better the past 20 years. Honestly feel awful for icky and hope he comes back better than before. Maybe we can resign him to a 1-2 year deal and if LT is too much for the knee, move him inside

This... I have a lot of problems with Rod, but I think this is probably the best coaching job he has done yet with the amount of injuries to key players we have had to overcome so far.

Even their size plays with their nuts clipped ... Especially in front of the net.

The LT is a tough call. It depends how much they want to spend on what might be a 1 year rental, or potentially a long term solution. Personally I prefer signing Nijman and drafting a first round tackle with Moton getting up there

Posted this earlier.. Would be interesting to see the availability for the line compared to other teams. Oline seems to be a concern and should be addressed this off season. Not drafting any oline, even solely for depth, 2024 and 2025 was a mistake.

I believe she already had a scholarship at Oregon.

The Cane’s have the blueprint to win a Stanley Cup based on what Florida did. They had to get bigger and physical yet they keep getting smaller and less physical. This team is soft as butter poo and will never win a cup under Rod or that dork Tulsky.

When you know the blueprint to win a Stanley Cup, the canes keep getting smaller and less physical. At some point, Rod’s going to get fired because he chokes leads and can’t win the big one.

We lost because of this

Because Kooch got hurt

Oh I do he gave up that ass butter soft tying goal
