And yet people think Keatts is a great coach?
I thought everyone is burying the NCSU program and the shadiness that Gott brought to it? Isn't it a good thing that Keatts is cleaning house? I can't keep up with the narratives anymore.

Entertaining the idea that what is going on at State or Wake is somehow normal is one of the problems. We are becoming innured to the broken state of College Basketball. It has become a joke. $Billion Dollar business where the players get shafted, coaches get rich, black market with agents chasing the money, shoe companies paying club coaches, meaningless conference tournaments, one and dones, meaningless regular season, foul fests, etc etc. We need to go the way of the Olympics and just pay players to reign in the black market everyone knows exists. The Golden Age of ACC basketball when an ACC tournament was the toughest ticket in sports are a long way in the rear view mirror. Let's just admit the whole think is a farce ant at least try to fix it. College football is crushing basketball because for some reason the participating teams follow a more uniform structure in their processes.
It’s kind of obvious, but a ton of roster turnover after year 1 is a very different thing than a ton of roster turnover after year 4.
Okogie staying in the draft.
UNC manages to get their best players to stay. That’s the key to winning.
“the narrative that they recruit flawed guys in order to keep them In college is silly.”
It is silly. That’s why I’ve never said that.
I have said that I think Roy does a good job of convincing his players to stay an extra year after they become draft prospects and getting one year from players who under the old system would have gotten drafted out of HS. Been that way since Roy got three years out of Felton, McCants, May and we got two out of Chris Paul.
