Some of you can die happy now!
Some of my friends that went to UNC are ready to fire Roy Williams. Seems perfectly appropriate.
Great Deacon alum is the SID for Belmont. Good crew of '98 Deacs in Chapel Hill today to see the win. Probably the only win they'll see in CH this year.
I was there in spirit.
They aren't very good. 2 good players on the floor today for UNC.
They have 5 freaking Mcdonalds All Americans on their roster. That is one more than WFU has had in the last 25 years. I am sure we will hear plenty about the lack of talent on this year's UNC-ch team but the truth is they once again will have more talent than nearly every team they play this year.
But hey...Roy sure does know how to coach that secondary break.
When is PJ's ruling going to be made by the NCAA? Is there a timetable for that?
Willie Dersch was a burger boy too. UNC may be still landing burger boys, but they've been landing the ones with flaws in their game. Bullock was a dead eye outside shooter, has NBA size to be a 2G and can defend, but he couldn't dribble to save his life or shoot well coming off screens. McAdoo would already be in the Association if he had shown NBA game, which he hasn't before this year. He's soft, not a great defender and is an inconsistent shooter. I wasn't that impressed when I saw them here last year. Haven't seen them yet this year. But the last couple of years, they've looked like a group of kids who have believed their press clippings and didn't want to put in the work, especially on the defensive end.
All that said, Belmont ain't bad either. They've been a fixture in the dance in recent years - they're a good bad conference team, kinda like a Davidson.
A vast majority of CBB have obvious flaws in their games, and the holes have pretty much always struggled to guard since Roy took over.
It needs to be said in every thread about UNC.
Fuck the holes.
That team that won the natty wasn't this bad on D - and the ones before that year. But I do believe their teams the last 4 years since they won the title have been seriously lacking on D and have not been mentally tough. Even the successful ones that danced - I think they just ran up nice records in a couple of very down ACCs. Not sure if Roy has lost his touch, or whether his pretty talented teams of the last few years have lacked leadership and toughness.

since 2006 UNC has had 5 top 5 recruiting classes, and 2 top 10 (according to scout). That is some nosedive.
