Jack up threes, drive and flail and try to get to the FT line. That's basically the whole sport now.

I don't look at college stats that much but was looking at betting Proctors assists against Louisville.  I started looking into it and most teams are only getting like 10-12 assists a fuging game. That said i did not bet on it. 

 

Houston and Tennessee scored 70+ pts in their championship games and only had 7 assists each

Not surprised. Everyone is running the same ISO dribble ball bullshit. It's the way the elite recruits want to play because that's NBA ball. IMO the ticket to consistent success in this environment is to forget about the elite recruits. Let someone else buy them. Focus on good recruits who buy into a system, probably don't have legit NBA hopes, and want to maximize their NIL earnings knowing that a future in the NBA is probably not in the cards. Gobble up as many of those guys as you can and play team ball.

Well, UNC is in a play in game to be a #11 seed. Somehow that feels way more embarrassing than just being left out.

UNC just needs to accept their NIT standing and be done with it. Honestly, I'm not sure UNC could win the NIT either.

Surely to God we wouldn't accept a fuging NIT bid. Hell, even Wake Forest finally developed a little pride and declined an NIT bid. LOL!

We might not win the NIT but we kept Wake out of the dance.

UNC did turn down an NIT invite a couple of years ago. That's why I brought it up, well, that and your post about the play in game.

Oh good lord, UNC AD Bubba Cunningham was the chair of the selection committee and we get in as what they admit was the last team in when most assumed we were out after he gives our coach who should probably be fired a 5 year extension? Jesus, this is such a bad look.

I didn't want us to get a bid already and now the optica of this? Fug...

    • 4610 total yards 27 total touchdowns 8 yards per attempt. Completion percentage was usual Cam ie mediocre or below at best at 57.7 and 86.2 passer rating. But the man scored points and moved the ball at will often. Compared to 2652 total yards 21 total touchdowns 6.3 yards per attempt completion % 60.9 82.2 passer rating. Let's just not do things like this. We can acknowledge Bryce improved (from realistically a bottom 5 QB) and hope he can work his way within the top 15 this season without dragging Cam Newton into it and unintentionally diminishing him. That's all I got to say. Carry on.
    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.
