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.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Icege · Posted

      I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
