Haven’t seen a team just run through their opponents in the NCAA Tournament like this since Carolina obliterated everyone in their path in 2009.

UConn beat good teams and I won’t discount that but college basketball is becoming watered down and parity is becoming more pronounced.  There wasn’t a dominant team.
 

That UNC couldn’t make the tournament knowing this is very concerning

'04/'05 will always be the ultimate college basketball season for me. UNC and Illinois were everyone's top two teams all season long. The narrative being that UNC had the most talented but Illinois was the better team. The way it played out with those two facing off for all the marbles in a great game was just perfect. A team like either one of those in this year's field cake walks.

I was watching the end of a high level HS game on ESPN2 and when are HS and college coaches gonna realize that scoring is way down across the board at those levels and way up in the NBA? Everyone at the lower levels wants to run the same type of spread iso offense as the NBA but without NBA talent. The result is a lot of ugly, low percentage shooting, low scoring games.

I'm wondering if some of our '24 class might be reclassifying to come early. If not I'm not certain we'll see them in Chapel Hill because Hubert might get himself fired in the meantime.

Yes, it certainly does not look real good at the present time.

It feels like Hubert is struggling mightily to bring in difference making transfers.  Withers is a decent pickup but we really need a few impact players here

We still have a ways to go putting the teams together, so here's wishing them success

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
