This particular team appears to be getting better each week.  I hope that isn’t a mirage.  Playing defense and now the team adds a big offensive weapon.  Good stuff 

Other than the App State game it finally looks like we have that pairing of an elite offense and a respectable defense. We've always paired elite offenses with trash tier defense. We've had elite defenses paired with respectable offenses in the past but never the reverse. At least not during my lifetime.

No, you are correct.  Even the Lawrence Taylor team was incredible defense, suspect offense.  Mack has seriously given UNC some of their better teams.

Honestly a big hurdle for the Heels…get by this one and things are looking decent to go the distance 

I had them as a realistic ACC championship contender this year. Maye is by far the best QB in the ACC. It was looking sketchy early but they look to be getting better each game.

I think there were some hiccups with the new OC. Tez Walker is gonna help a lot too. The offense was sorely missing a true field stretcher deep threat.

I really had no idea Tez Walker was so well regarded, but now I see it.  He is a perfect complement to these other WRs.  
 

I tracked down the Inside Carolina team talking about him and they stated he could be the second most talented player on the roster.  Nice

This is the first time in a long time I have honestly been more excited about college football than the NFL.

 

I think the NIL will make the sport more popular. These top players can now jump from school to school now. The older college fans might not like it, but the newer generation will love it. Times are changing in college sports. Either adapt or get left behind.

#2 WR, #6 overall.

He had 7 catches for 106 yards and a TD against Georgia and you KNOW they were keying on him. The rest of the roster combined for about 80 receiving yards. Only one other WR caught a pass.

Ultimately I think they're going to do something to rein in the musical chairs.

Like what?

 

Let these kids do what they want. NCAA has screwed them over for decades. It's their time to capitalize on the NCAA.

That's NIL. Not sure what they'll do but I don't think the current free for all will continue. They might ultimately reinstitute the sit out a year rule.

I've always thought the schools should have to commit to a four year scholarship to these kids as long as they remain academically eligible.

    • If Canales comes back and Bryce doesn’t I would probably prefer to bring in 3 guys he likes from around the league or maybe outside a top ten pick and work through them, give that a shot. Because if we win a few more games we won’t be in the running for the top rated QB prospects anyway. 
    • You mean tepper but yeah I agree about rhule   Baker is a top 3 potential qb that is play for mvp and he is doing it with a slew of injuries
    • There’s too many to reply to so I’ll just say a couple more things then I’m out: 1. It hasn’t been both ways and that’s the point. People saying stuff like “too bad Bryce Young didn’t make that tackle” is a direct result of the ridiculousness of blaming Bryce Young for literally everything. I remember one game day thread a poster unironically blamed Bryce Young for JT Sanders flipping onto his own neck and injuring himself. That post was pied. I literally just read a post blaming Bryce Young for XL dropping a ball on a would-be game winning drive last year. This past week, when Tmac bounced a ball off his hands for an interception, Bryce Young was immediately blamed in the game day thread. Alternatively, people who try to give credit to Bryce Young are immediately told that to credit Bryce Young is taking away credit from Rico Dowdle, OL, whoever, and that they shouldn’t be talking positively about Bryce Young because he doesn’t deserve any credit. 2. Yes, there have always been bad posters, the difference is that back then they were largely derided. Bryce Young’s rookie season, when many of us were simply pointing at the train wreck of the whole team and saying it was maybe a little tough to evaluate Bryce Young when he had no time to throw and slow receivers, and just saying basic stuff like “Bryce Young can physically throw the ball further than 20 yards.” There was an attempt made to limit all those opinions to a single thread, by a mod. This is like saying lunatics running the asylum is normal because there have always been lunatics in the asylum. The difference is before they were patients, now they’re in charge. 3. I know for a fact I am labeled as one of the “Bryce Stans” by many of the usual suspects, but the fact of the matter is they have no idea what my position is on Bryce Young because any attempts at nuanced discussion in the past have been so completely pointless due to never being able to get past the hyperbole. How can we have a serious conversation if you insist he is physically incapable of throwing a football 20 yards? Or if you insist that he somehow duped the Panthers into drafting him just by drinking water? Or if you insist that he should be able to succeed behind one of the worst offensive lines I’ve ever seen (rookie year, not now). And I’m not the only one, there are many who have left the huddle because of it and started a discord server, I’m just too lazy for another app.
