I can't speak for the UNC fans, but generally I'd rather play a team in the tourney that didn't know me that well.  That cuts all sorts of ways I guess.   Certainly, advantages to knowing someone too. 

Clemson will be an underdog for the 3rd straight game for a reason.  AZ should win simply because Clemson is the much more inconsistent team.  But if Clemson is playing well, they have been a problem for a lot of folks when they get it together this year. 

Sure, fair points and it's why you always see conference upsets that technically shouldn't have happened, because of how well they know each other.

But still, all things considered, even with Clemson's knowledge of UNC, I can't see how any fans would rather play a more inconsistent team that has a significantly lower ceiling than the more consistent team whose ceiling is literally the best team in the nation.

Boswell is the real key to our team, if he plays well, we are on equal footing with the UConn, Houston, and Purdue's of the world.  If we didn't over celebrate winning the Pac 12 on our LA road trip after beating UCLA and clearly had a post-celebration hangover for the USC game, we'd have been the 1 seed in the West.

Have mentioned it before here, but I'm an Arizona alum.

Gotta imagine there are quite a bit of UNC fans around these parts.

You're really going to miss Caleb Love when he dominates you guys on our way to the Final Four!

Bear Down Arizona!

Can you actually post this in the right forum?

Meh

It's the offseason anyways, and to be honest, I have the Panthers section as my bookmark and I've literally never ventured into any of the other forums on here.

Also, you posted this like an hour after a mod already moved it out of the Panthers forum and into whatever one it's now in?  

Little odd lol

I thought maybe you would post it in the college basketball thread so more people can see it.

Dead serious, had zero idea there was a college basketball forum/thread on here.

I don't venture outside the Panthers forum on this site as that's what I have bookmarked and go directly into when I come here.

      Brown on BY9 while talking to Chris Long

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.

      Canes vs Canadians Gm 2 Rd 3 7pm

      By organicrusty1201 · Posted

      I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
