I thought it was so tacky (but yet so completely fitting) that Coach K had to announce his retirement a year in advance so he could have a yearlong farewell tour. Absolutely no better way for that farewell tour to go than for him to lose his final home game and final regular season to UNC absolutely ruining his curtain call. Then for UNC and duke to have their first NCAA tourney match up in the Final Four and UNC sending his ass packing into retirement. The ONLY way for it to have been better is if tonight had been for all the marbles.

he looked so pissed walking to the locker room, like hubert fugged his daughter

I’m not sure how much Carolina will have left on Monday. This was an emotional game for both Carolina and Duke but if anyone can get them ready to play then it’s Coach Davis.

Regardless, as others have pointed out, it will be a stress free game. I’ll be able to sit back and watch and wonder how the hell we got here.

I agree with this and have been talking about this all year. Roy did it right and has Davis set up nice for the future. K and his ego has drained Duke.

Let's be real Kansas probably would have beat Duke and probably should beat unc

I have learned that when you use the phrase  " let's get real" in a sentence and follow it with 2 hypothetical statements that necessitate the adverb "probably", your argument is lacking substance.  (Just kidding--and I agree--but when you prefaced the statement with "let's get real" I laughed with minor nasal discharge).

There's no "judgement" going on. What you're seeing is pure, unadulterated copium. 😂

Kansas is going to be an interesting matchup but I do think the Heels matchup well with Kansas.

Black on Agbaji

Love on Braun

Davis on Harris

Manek on Wilson

Bacot on McCormack

If Manek outplays Wilson then I think Carolina comes away with this one.

Manek was wiped out towards the end of the second half. Hopefully Hubert can find some opportunity to rest Manek and Bacot a few minutes against Kansas. The 3 guards will be good to go all game I’m sure.

    • Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.
    • TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good.  Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams.  This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR.  WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...
    • So because he's a projected top 5 pick he's should be the guy we draft.   Yet you say the other 2 QBs who are projected top 5 picks are not worth it because you think they aren't that good.   That's my problem with you. You just seem to only care about Tmac. I have yet to see you suggest anyone outside of Tmac. At least I'm open to other prospects.
