Duke's Maalik Murphy entering the transfer portal. Not sure why. He peaked at Duke this year, and whoever else would get him would put him in a worse position (maybe a better team but as a backup, or a worse team as the starter).

You have guys like Jalen Milroe at Bama who can't effectively throw a football. Hell, depending on what UNC does with their coaching search he might just slide 8 miles down the road.

Murphy would be an instant villain if he did that, but it's becoming (and only will continue to become) more common for guys to jump to their rival programs. He throws a great deep ball and you'd fall in love with that. His decision-making, however, is 2021 Darnold-esque.

he gets to negotiate another NIL deal. 

and someone in the BIG10/SEC likely would want him.  Lot of QB question marks going into next season IMO.

If UNC doesn't have an announcement today or tomorrow it probably means we've struck out on the A and B list and we're in desperation mode. You know, just normal Tar Heel football. LOL

portal is live and open today right?  I would assume of you were getting Bill.....you would want him at the start.  Because Bill would be a portal heavy guy I would think

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
