It was a bad look to completely miss the tournament with that team.  When was the last time UNC missed it?  Matt Doherty?? I think he will be good in the long run, but taking that team to the finals the previous year raised fans expectations too high.  

UNC missed the tourney under Roy Williams at least once, maybe a couple times. And that’s one of the top college coaches of all time.

Good call! Looks like they missed it in 2010. Again I think Davis kind of hurt himself by taking that nearly identical roster to the championship the prior year. He is obviously getting more time as HC which he should.

Wilcher thinks he is a OAD player and doesn't want to come off the bench at all. He was expecting to go to UNC and start immediately and have the ability to show he is an OAD player. With RJ coming back and the Cadeau reclassification, he knows he isn't starting and decided to leave because of that. 

If Wilcher is that deluded then it's addition by subtraction IMO. These guys have to understand that 6'4" combo guards are a dime a dozen in the NBA. And another dose of reality... "combo guard" is just a nice way of saying "undersized SG". Again, a dime a dozen in the NBA. 

Wilcher is ranked what? In the mid-30s? How many guys ranked in the mid-30s are OAD? Hell, for that matter, how many guys ranked in the mid-30s ever make an NBA roster? I get it. Virtually every 4 and 5 star recruit thinks he's a future NBA or NFL player but the reality is that most of those guys won't play in the NBA. At least with basketball there's ample international opportunities as well.

A mid-30s ranked 6'4" "combo guard" thinks he's a surefire OADer? Okay. Bye.

This is just the current landscape of college sports. I guess he didn't expect Cadeau to reclassify even though it was pretty widely expected. Watch him end up at St. John's. Pitino has been chirping in his ear ever since taking that job.

Yep, Wilcher to St. John's. Blatant tampering. Whatever. Best of luck. Moving on.

I have to and you trying to put a HC on the hotseat after 2 years.

 

I think you are smart enough to know it takes more than 2 years to build a program. I think Hubert deserves at least 3 years before we think about the hot seat.

If Hubert misses the NCAA tourney again next year UNC will ask him to resign, and he probably will. Unacceptable. 
 

Y’all casuals freaking out about players transferring and bailing last minute…. Welcome to the new era college sports. No point to sit on the bench and earn your stripes when you can just transfer to smaller or lesser program and get the mins and probably a bag 

 

and yeah noted ethical and stand up human being Rick Pitino 100% tampered with the wilcher kid. He was obviously scared about the kid from Brown university taking some of his minutes. Pussy.

They missed the tourney in ‘10 after a roster reshuffle from one of the best college basketball teams of all time in 2009. They would have missed it in 2020 but got bailed out by Covid. 
 

duke missed it in 2021. Kentucky missed it recently I believe and they have not played to the level of their roster. Shaeden Sharpe great example of the type of kids they are getting.

Pitino is such a snake...god I hate that dude

Again dude, while the timing wasn’t great for the Wilcher thing but I’m sure the tampering had been going on for weeks if not months. 
 

real analysis says that a kid who is very athletic but is not a good shooter saw his situation change and was afraid of a couple transfers taking his minutes and hurting his nba stock. Easy way out and got paid to do it. Best wishes. Don’t need softies infiltrating the program.

I don’t know Wilcher but even with the question marks I have with Hubert this was a much better situation for him than playing for that guy.  If he fades into obscurity there it won’t be at all surprising

I doubt it.

 

Im a 33 year old CEO who is the owner of my box truck business. Started with 1 box truck, I now own 10 box trucks with 9 drivers. My company is small but we are growing by the year. And all of my drivers are grossing over 20k a month for a single driver.

 

Can you sit at home and get paid for no work?

 

I doubt it. Don't you ever disrespect me like that again. If you want proof PM I will gladly humble you.

      Fvck Bryce Young

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.

      I'm 43.... I've lived half my life if I am lucky... will we ever have another team that we will fall in love with?!?

      By TheBigKat · Posted

      I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football

      I’m not sure people understand how fuging bad it is

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm not so sure. Something about the whole Frank/Bryce situation seemed off from day 1. Bryce didn't fit Frank's QB mold as well as Stroud, then he basically gives up when Bryce is named starter in preseason but gets virtually no reps in games. Then he looks completely unprepared and Dalton steps in in Seattle, has a decent game under immense pressure, and it's right back to Bryce. All his mechanics are terrible and he's having the worst rookie season ever and Frank doesn't bench him?  You dont have to be a conspiracy theorist to know Bryce wasn't ready to be a day 1 starter. Everything with Bryce, then coaches, and the FO seemed forced.
