If this had anything to do with him transferring, he definitely needs to go to a small mid-major without much basketball tradition. A couple dozen negative message board posts per game is nothing compared to what he'd receive from more rabid fanbases.

But anyways, I was not one who was hoping he'd transfer, and will be interested to see how his career plays out. I hope he can regain confidence somewhere and resurrect his career.
I would hazard a guess that Manman blossoming and taking over the team had much more to do with breaking Whitt's confidence than message boards.
Manman got the ball and with it he took Whitt's confidence.
I'm sure he understood having a smaller role than the ACCPOY. Losing all of his minutes to Cam and other guys is what sealed the deal.
Man Man and whitt didn't even look like they were playing the same sport.
I'm willing to bet it's a Power 6 conference.
Manman did not arrive at Wake with "future ACC POY" sign on his jersey. Manman got the keys to the car during preseason. Carter played like he never got over the demotion.
I don't see that happening. That toothpaste is long out of the tube. I see him at maybe a UNC-G, Elon or HPU. He's not a Power 6 talent. I don't even think it's close.
I did hear that early in the season he was complaining about his role/playing time on the bench and there was a strong reaction from the staff, as there should have been.
Whitt did Forbes a solid by coming to Wake early and playing on a bad Wake team in the spring of 2021. He could have stayed in HS and had possibility of playing for a state championship.
I'm sure he wasn't happy being demoted in favor of some guy who was 7th or 8th at Oklahoma. Apparently he didn't handle the situation well. I hope this was experience he can learn from. Nothing is guaranteed. You have to keep earning playing time.
Not reading into anything here, but it at least sounds like all of the player meetings have happened. So I assume we'd hear about players entering the transfer portal soon, if anyone has decided to go that route.
