Speaking of Love and those final wins over K, Caleb Love is a feature of two of my all-time favorite UNC basketball photos 

From the final game in Cameron:

From the Final Four win:

Love struggled with consistency (a recurring theme under Hubert Davis) but man, he had one helluva knack for being at his best in big games and big moments.

That night after the Final Four is a complete blur on Bourbon Street.

Didn't Love turn around and beat Duke again the next year as a transfer at Arizona?

Caleb Wilson has looked uninterested this game.  

Several times has gotten matched up on the block vs a guard on a switch and doesn't command the ball or post up strong enough. 

Also Carolina getting crushed on the offensive glass.  As the most athletic kid on the floor Caleb Wilson should be asserting himself on the glass. 

Gonna be a tight finish to the game.

He is already counting that NBA payday coming.

I don't think that's it.  I think it's poor coaching and not having someone on the staff that can get him fired up and instill that "Rasheed" in him.  That's honestly who he could be if he was pushed. 

Sad / glad part of Caleb is he looked absolutely disinterested today, and he scored 20 points.  If they can figure out how to make him motivated, he is the best player in America, with respect to Boozer.

Not sure what the context of your post is, but assuming it's telling me to fug off because he played great down the stretch with some huge buckets late.  And that's fair, I agree. 

But go back and watch the multiple possessions where he gets matched up with Mallory on the block after pick switches and tell me he's giving maximum effort on those plays. He's not.

Love the kid, not burying him by any means, without him we are 8-12.  But to get this team into the Elite 8 or beyond, Caleb has to be absolutely dominant and demand / earn the ball in those situations.

Hopefully someone on the staff will light a fire under his ass and push him to be what he can be.

Damn, Syracuse is pure ass.

Yea, pretty crazy this is the same team that beat Tennessee and took Houston to the wire. 

Really good showing for Carolina, in what could've been a look ahead game with Dook looming. 

Will be going into Saturday with some good momentum.

We finished like ass. Kinda glad. Don't wanna go into Saturday's game feeling too cocky. Blowing a huge lead will give the coaches reason to ride their ass. We honestly didn't even finish that bad, Syracuse just got NBA Jams hot.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      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.
