Deion is building that OL through the transfer portal. The star of his haul so far is a 6'2" 275 pounder from 3-9 UConn.

 Another transfer from Indiana guy played 12 games only allowed 1 sack. Deion is rebuilding that Oline slowly but surely.

Drake Maye will skip his Bowl Game and declare for the NFL Draft. Duke's QB is transferring to Notre Dame to start, and will miss his Bowl Game as well.

As he should. He's done enough for UNC.

Kinda glad. I really didn't want to go to that bowl anyway but I had committed myself to it if Drake played.

No players who have a legit shot of being drafted should play in a meaningless exhibition game especially one called the Mayo Bowl. Too much money at risk.

Tim not only talks about Maye going pro, but dives into what UNC and other schools should be pitching to guys in the portal and HS when recruiting them.

 

Everyone knows I'm a massive Heels fan. Heels > Panthers all day everyday. Just the way it is.

But I detected no lies. I pissed off a lot of Carolina fans for saying this time last year that Drake should take the SEC bag and transfer. It was in his best interests. I'm gonna do it again this year. Omarion Hampton should take the bag and transfer. Imagine him running behind a Georgia or Alabama OL. If we have a significant drop off in QB play (virtually guaranteed, getting Howell/Maye caliber QBs back to back is just unheard of for UNC level programs) and we're also losing our #1 WR, it's very possible he's looking at at a lot of stacked boxes next year. With the devaluation of the RB position in the NFL, RB draft stock can be a very fickle thing. A QB that checks every prototype box like Maye can have a drop off and still be an elite prospect. A RB can't.

Mack should do the right thing and retire. If he doesn't he should be forced out. His age is a huge hurdle to overcome in recruiting and his team has regressed over the course of the season every year. He's just too old to do the job at this point. He accomplished what he came here to do which was get the program out of the gutter and rebuild recruiting pipelines. Mission accomplish. Ride off into the sunset to the beach house now.

I hadn't heard of Tim until a few weeks ago, but yeah, he doesn't hold back and seems more right than wrong with his takes. He brought up that doing what Carolina did with Howell and Maye was highly unusual too. And yeah, Maye probably should have transferred from UNC last year.

I don't see Mack retiring until his contract expires unless his health takes a turn for the worse. He seems perfectly happy cashing those checks.

It doesn’t. Attendance is at like 50%(averaged) for most teams. It’s actually a huge problem for the sport and the commissioner is losing his poo over it. 

The big teams (Yankees, Braves, Dodgers etc...) carry the other teams.  The Dodgers average almost 50,000 a game over 81 games and gets 40 bucks or more per ticket.  Oakland averages about 10,000.

    • One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.  
    • “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃 
    • Bix has more tds through his first 11 games than bryce has his entire career....no comparison at all he made amazing throws during his first games his decision making just keeps getting better.  Young does not have the physical ability ro make the rhrows bo makes
