Mediocrity has been the norm for UNC basketball for a few years now too.

Which is why Hubert has to go. If it wasn't for a fluke hot streak getting a #8 seed to the title game in year one there would be literally no one still holding out any hope for this guy. He's been awful and it's trending downward.

The damning thing with Hubert is that his team strategy hasn’t changed at all since he got here.  We don’t have size…maybe try a zone defense?  How about neutralizing the other teams scorer.  How about do anything except shoot 3s.  
 

Also, his recruiting has been very average.  We are UNC we have to be bringing in top guys but Hubert is killing that.

We need a true national relevant coach and leader.  Hubert is not it

Top guys aren't interested in UNC. They're interested in the NBA factory schools such as Duke, Kentucky, etc and whoever offers them the most NIL money. And that's not UNC in both cases. UNC has coasted on their history and being MJ's school for years. And that just doesn't work in this era.

This makes no sense.  UNC has everything any recruit could want.  Not sure if you have seen the amazing infrastructure they have built.  UNC should get all the great players but Hubert is just bad at this recruiting.  
 

They can’t move on from him with this Belechick hire and UNC decision makers clearly see that Football makes the money now

Take your fanboyism out of it. UNC hasn't gotten top recruits for years. UNC wants guys that'll be there over the long haul, but those top 1 and done guys want to go to the NBA pipeline schools and since NIL and the portal, those schools willing to pony up the most cash.

Thanks for the validation on UNC recruiting.  But yes…NIL will ruin college sports.

Ohio State just bought a championship.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By frankw · Posted

      I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
