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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
