Ian Jackson had a phenomenal poster of a dunk but this team is borderline unwatchable.

If it wasn't for that fluke of a hot streak that led to a run to the championship game a couple of years ago Hubert's seat would be red hot. I just don't see this guy working out.

Didn’t want Hubert to replace Roy from the jump. He lucked into that tournament run and without that happening he’d already be toast. They’ll miss the tournament this year. Roster looks bleak next year so possibly worse. RJ has been a huge disappointment this season. Zero bigs. Terrible coaching. The team is playing worse as the season goes on…pitiful

The deep irony of a Wake Forest fan calling anyone "bums". Congrats on the win but my god, y'all have made three NCAA tournaments in the last two decades (when we have that many national championships in the same timeframe) and have missed it in the last seven years running so maybe chill with the "bum" talk over there in that very fragile glass house.

UNC got a top 10 guy in Caleb Wilson.  We needed that badly, hope he works out

I’d say Ian is almost certainly gone. The big question is can HD build a complete team. The other 2 recruits are in the 40s so typically those ride the bench at UNC for a year or two. Elliot I hope returns. The portal will make or break next season.

If a mass exodus happens Tarheels are in trouble.  That said this signing is a good start but the problem right now is Carolina is small everywhere.  Guard are small, SF is average size, no bigs with girth and power inside.  Hubert isn’t recruiting champ type players.  Wilson is a good piece but they need a big man badly.

The other two guys he recruited are mid guards.  I think the Tarheels should move on from Hubert.  Doubt they even can with the treasury they gave Belichick.

Well said. I can’t understand how HD couldn’t lock up a starting caliber big. Didn’t need to be a top 10, top 20, etc big but a competent C to rebound and alter shots. How he thought going into the season without a banded C/PF is mind boggling. Duplicated talent at 1-3 and zilch at 4/5. Awful team building.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
