What are you doing watching college Bball? I thought you said you didn't like it anymore.

Just kidding. Enjoy the W

College bball was my favorite sport by a landslide growing up. I've pretty much been a Carolina only viewer for years now though. I probably watch single digit numbers of non-UNC games and virtually all of them in the NCAA tourney but I only watch tourney games as long as Carolina is in it. Once Carolina is out my college bball season is over. I've probably watched fewer than five NBA games in the past 20 years.

This team has 2nd round exit written all over it. Only way we win either Carolina game is through fluke rivalry bullshit.

Refs just gave Duke a victory over Clemson.

He yanked his arm. That gets called every time.

This Duke team just has no true rim protector. The fact that Ryan Young still gets so many minutes is obscene, I wish we could see Stewart get some more action instead. Young is a known quantity at this point. Malauch committing for next year is absolutely critical.

I'm more talking the calls and lack of down the stretch. That said, it was a mostly good game despite the refs.

Yeah, there were definitely some weird calls down the stretch. I thought you were talking about the last one specifically. Btw, do you have a team? I see you in college threads very often but you always seem very neutral on matters. Totally valid approach if that's where you land, I honestly kind of envy it lol.

This Duke team may be flawed but next year’s squad has to be preseason #1.  
They are about to be incredibly loaded

Maybe. I remain a bit worried about the front court though. Next year's team could face a lot of similar problems if Malauch chooses to go elsewhere or if Ngonba underperforms; I feel like Scheyer has overrecruited the wings a bit.

Nah, I don't have a team. I'm more of a NC school or underdog first guy. Plus, teasing the UNC fanboys never gets old.

      Crazy stat

      By Luuuuuuuuuuke59 · Posted

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By 45catfan · Posted

      This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
