Well, we got behind big and lost but at least we didn't lay down and quit and made a helluva run at it. Team sports starts for me again with NFL training camp.

Crying by proxy. The real losers of crying. LOL

If I was as low as you I'd go and drag the poo out of your constant crying in the TB.

Not sure how many more Hubert games I'll watch. Watching one of your childhood favorite players absolutely ruin your favorite sports program is just not at all enjoyable.

Thanks for proving my hypothesis correct. LOL

Honestly, I was wrong. I guess the ultimate loser move is just trolling fanbases with no professed rooting interests.

The ultimate loser move. But yeah, that's Wake and State for ya. LOL

Duke actually has something to cheer about. The other two...eh, not so much. LOL

Been like that all year. Every time we've shot well we've followed it with a game like this. That's what I was saying "uh oh" watching us rain against SDSU.

Glad we didn't suffer the indignity of losing a play in game but I'm glad that college basketball is wrapping up tonight.

Yeah...

We gotta realize we're in a football game on a basketball court because they're just throwing us out of the way to get shots off.

100% I'm not pounding the table for T-Mac but I also definitely would not oppose drafting him.

He plays like a mid-4.5s guy IMO. I honestly think he projects as a Tee Higgins type and Higgins ran high 4.5s. I think T-Mac is a better prospect coming out of college.

It's possible he's gone by #57.

They should ask his wife which day three RB she likes.

Exactly. We've been blowing draft after draft after draft and that shows up in a glaring way when you look at our roster. Just find players. If they turn out to be All Pros, great. But you have to find contributing players in the draft year after year or you're fuged.

Hed take Ashton Jeanty. Marty loved his first round RBs and off the ball LBs.

Yep. While the popular narrative is that there's few elite talents and a big logjam of similarly ranked prospects behind them, the reality will play out a lot differently. It always does. There will be highly drafted busts and there will be some prospects who were overlooked a bit who end up shining in the NFL. Every draft would look a LOT different if it could be redone a year, five years, ten years later. The consistently good teams consistently beat the odds on the draft. Every team is going to have some busts but you have to consistently year after year add quality talent and depth to your roster through the draft. The hard salary cap necessitates it. The draft is by far your best opportunity to add talent at a value.

It would seem like a mismanagement of the draft not to come out of this draft with an EDGE, DT, and RB. We aren't fixing all of our holes in one off-season. What this draft lacks in perceived elite talent it makes up for in depth at quite a few positions groups.

Yep. We knew we wanted to add one, they started flying off the board and we panicked.

On DAY THREE. You know, the throwing darts at the board hoping to land roster caliber players portion of the draft. It's not like anyone is talking about spending a premium pick on RB. What are you hoping to find on day three of the draft? A #1 WR? A star pass rusher? Solid rotational RBs are often found on day three and it would be a good use of a day three pick for us.

Yep. There will be several contributing RBs drafted in day three this year. One of them needs to be in Carolina. I'm not saying they'll be stars or starters but they'll be solid NFL players for years.

Just was hoping we'd save some. Seems like every time we have a hot shooting night we follow it with an outing where we can barely draw iron. LOL
