Auburn literally could've had 20+ fouls in that half. Hate playing teams like this. They picked up 5-6 quick ones then like always happens the refs start to get whistle shy not wanting to call a foul every possession and they start getting away with murder. The way they call the games encourages this type of play. If they keep fouling just keep calling it.

I mean, our bigs suck. Just own it. Play the two frosh and press the poo out of everyone. Basically recreate the old Arkansas 40 minutes of hell pressure D. You have to adapt to your roster. You can't just act like Armando Bacot is going to show up tomorrow.

Cadeau, RJ, Jackson, Powell, and Withers should be our main five and just try to turn it into a track meet.

If we don't switch it up and start playing full court pressure D we're just going to have to shoot lights out and have the other team have an off night to have a chance against top teams. We've trailed by 20 in three of our four games and ended up getting back in them by picking up the pressure. This team has to pressure and create pace because we don't have the post presence to play half court ball on either side of the court.

UNC is soft which is indicative of poor coaching. Like Mack, Hubert coddles these kids.

This really is the problem this season.  UNC being pushed around and missing a man in the middle.  Great everywhere else but no bruiser in the middle will hurt them

Doesn't look like Carolina has the firepower to play this run and gun style they're trying. Davis needs to slow them down and call some set plays.

Absolutely the wrong take. We have to run and gun. We have zero post presence. We just have to make shots. We just can't hit water from a boat tonight and we're turning it over to boot. Then you have a poor shooting opponent shooting lights out. 

Looks like a long season ahead of us though if Hubert doesn't adapt to this roster. We have to play a pressure trapping D and get out in transition because we aren't beating anyone in the half court.

    • Brady and Belichick have always been incredibly unlikeable and have multiple cheating scandals. I get not enjoying seeing the same team win a lot but I don’t understand that as a reason for hating them like a lot of people do — blame all the other teams that haven’t been able to beat them, it’s not like this is the MLB with no cap and they’re just outspending everyone like the Dodgers. It’s an even playing field and they’ve just been better than everyone else. Mahomes’ family can be kind of annoying but I’ve never seen any reason at all to dislike him on or off the field. And Reid is about as likable as it gets for a coach. I can’t believe all the people out there overjoyed by and slobbering at the broncos winning the division over them, with fuging scumbag Sean Payton as coach. 
    • Politics aside I got tired of seeing the Pats in the Super Bowl almost every year, then Brady with the Bucs, the Chiefs filled that void in an annoying way, just ready to mix it up and have a new champion every year instead of these dynasty teams
    • Sycophants sold out to Young falsely portray doubters as not wanting to win.  Lame. We want to win. Of course. But one barely winning season at 9-8 doesn’t prove poo in the big picture. It feels good, sure. Fine.  It is more we don’t believe Young, so far, has demonstrated that he is the answer. And having the answer is far more important to us than a single season’s winning record. That maybe… maybe, happens by a game.  How many real games has he had that can demand we bow down to a multi year commitment and declare the issue settled? Not enough for us. And that is the big picture objective. I would bet collectively we see the people who are sold off of the three or four good games while ignoring equal numbers of bad games - some that we somehow still won, some we lost - as not having high enough standards.
