Well said. I can’t understand how HD couldn’t lock up a starting caliber big. Didn’t need to be a top 10, top 20, etc big but a competent C to rebound and alter shots. How he thought going into the season without a banded C/PF is mind boggling. Duplicated talent at 1-3 and zilch at 4/5. Awful team building. 

Options to sign a big have never been better.  To miss and sign Cade Tyson as your top guy reeks of lazy and incompetence.  Just IMHO

Cade was such a bad portal signing. I heard he got $600k….that could have went towards a legit big.

We've been trying to find another Brady Manek ever since. Hubert is obsessed with having a three point shooter at the 4 spot.

I gotta give Hubert Davis credit for one thing. He's achieved what I thought was impossible for me. He's made Tar Heel basketball unwatchable. I'm just over watching our opponents run actual offense while our offense is one guy dribbling the leather off the ball while everyone else just stands around and then we just have to jack up a bad shot at the end of the shot clock on the off chance that we don't turn it over in the meantime.

This has to be the end of Davis's run. I imagine they will give him the chance to step down at the end of the year. 

If he ever loved Carolina basketball he has to realize he ain't it. It just keeps getting worse. We look like an unorganized intramural team out there. No semblance of coaching or running an actual system. Just guys out there winging it the best they can.

Sounds like Davis got together with Charles Lee of the Hornets. The few Hornets games I watched earlier this season were similar. Is UNC just jacking up bad 3s? I ask because that's what Lee's "system" is.

When we don't turn it over, yes. We try pretty hard to just turn it over for uncontested breakaway dunks though and we're pretty good at it.

    • We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either, QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
