Dan Hurley is really getting some humble pie shoved down his throat this year. Good to see. He's always seemed like a dick but after back to back championships and an absolutely dominant run last year it looked like he was gonna take over college basketball.

Four in a row. I'll take it. Better to be beating not very good teams than losing to not very good teams.

I mean, let's be real. We ain't competing for a championship this year so I'll just enjoy the wins and hope we keep improving. If Powell and Jackson come back next year could be interesting. If not, then it'll be another NIL/portal era crapshoot.

Oh fug. We beat four bad teams in a row and we do this...

Hubert is now signed through 2030. I sincerely hope this works out and he becomes a great coach but the guy's seat should've been warming up. An extension during a bad season after a disappointing finish last year is just completely unwarranted at this point.

*Edited to clarify that it was actually signed back in December, we have just had such a disappointing season that we had to wait until we could string together a few Ws for them to feel comfortably announcing it to the public. Oh wee mayne...

that was actually signed in December.

Specifically, Davis and athletic director Bubba Cunningham signed it on Dec. 4, the same day as UNC’s 15-point home loss to Alabama.

That what he's usually done up until this year. The dude can score.

Davis is a great college player but I don't think he has the size to be an NBA player. That said, I also wouldn't be surprised to see him get at least one NBA contract as a 3 and D guy coming off the bench because the NBA always wants scoring.

    • 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.
