If you shoot 35 free throws you don't need a lot of 3's. Elliot's minutes has to trim so Drake and Ian can get minutes. You can't pull Seth or RJ. It's Elliott right now
Nice to finally get a meaningful win, but we're still waiting until the second half to really start hooping. It's just more of the same. Ian deserves to start imo. Lubin, Claude, Washington, and Withers combined for 7 points, 9 rebounds, and 11 fouls...man I miss our old style of play.
What has happened to Withers? His play has gotten worse as the season has progressed and he is back to being a turnover machine and disappears on defense and the backboards? The Heels need him to be physical in the paint and not shooting three point bricks. Washington needs to grow a pair and use his size, he is maybe the softest big man the Heels have had in awhile, he needs to get mean on the boards. If these two don't start playing as physical Bigs, then it's going to be a long season for the Tar Heels.
I’m definitely concerned about this team. The offense looks so stagnant and the defense had terrible communication for most of the game. I think the big difference was the defense stepped up. Trimble was active with his hands. UCLA missed a lot of free throws which helped UNC win. I’m ready to see Ian Jackson start. He’s the only one who looks confident and ready to shoot. RJ still doesn’t look confident when he shoots as he’s missing some open shots. Cadeau is playing way too sloppy although I give him credit for his d at the end. Hubert needs to not be so scared to bench a veteran guard for Ian Jackson. He bought himself some lifeline, but if this team doesn’t develop then he will still be coaching for his job.
It was good to see Cade Tyson hit a three on his first attempt against a top 20 team, too bad it didn't count because he stepped out of bounds.... that looks promising
Good for UNC for getting the victory over UCLA yesterday. I just wish they (UNC) would stop having slow starts in the 1st half & jacking up 3s. Ian Jackson was an beast & needs to be in the starting lineup.
Again I have to say Ian Jackson has to start and get more minutes. As a team way to many turnovers. It seem at times the team doesnt know what to run on offense and their defense switching way to much. Way to much opening spots. I would rather see Cadeau come off the bench and start RJ and Ian. I think that would give us a better chance to win. Than the three guards.
Glad to get a win. Problem is the team's flawed game plan has not changed nor has their bumpy starts. UCLA, like Dayton, are not the same level of teams as at least for the 5 losses.
You can say it's the same old thing. You can say we could've lost. But, we could've won too. We did . We could've won Michigan State, Kansas,and Alabama. If we had two more wins people would get off Hubert's back. Unless y'all think you can do something better. I called it 76-74 a perfect score!!!!!!!!!!
Fools gold? Jackson seems to be very promising. That’s the best news. The new guys are trying. These are the new leaders arising. RJ, Elliot? Let’s see more. Need more consistency as they say.
Practicing free throws is a must for all the players. Should have had a couple of more wins due to bad free throw shots. Elliot is way too inconsistent as of now. He has or will have the talent but makes too many hasty decisions as of now.
No, it’s not a game season win soon as you see Carolina win one game now that save the season one thing they cannot shoot from the floor or from three as you look at every game they came back. It took about 30 free throws this game. They shot 35 free throws the refs is not gonna be that nice all the time. I knew you was going to get on here and try to over hype the win you should never say that 3G starting guard lineup is elite. They can barely shoot Carolina needs to thank the referees and the games that they come back in besides hitting their free throws they do not be playing good IJ and Jackson is the only two real scorers on the team. The other ones only look good when they’re up against not quality competition. They will play good against Campbell because that’s a lower level team to make them look good. Autumn games that Carolina has came back from go look at free throws that they shot and look at them shooting from the floor and from three-point line not good. The ref has helped them out.🤦🏽♂️🤔🤦🏽♂️🤔🤦🏽♂️
Everybody’s afraid to say it but it’s Elliot who should come off the bench. Ian has to start. (And another thing, guys that Hubert is trying to recruit are watching this, they know that Ian should be starting but his performance is not being rewarded. We don’t want to scare recruits away.)
If UNC is "not going nowhere" this means that UNC is going somewhere. In dietary advice, one epigram is "What you take out of your diet is more important than what you put into it" meaning that improving your health is more about getting rid of processed foods, sugar, vegetable (actually seed) oils, ... than putting in vitamins and minerals, grass - fed beef, exercise ... For BBall this means getting rid of the turnovers, bad passes, missed layups, ball getting stuck, lack of movement, not blocking out, unnecessary fouls, and how many times did we see stepping out of bounds? Getting into good position under the basket while your teammate is driving and then acting surprised when you are passed the ball and then fumbling it - how does one not realize that on a drive passing the ball to a teammate for a better shot is an option? One of the comments about Belichick is that we will see emphasis on getting rid of the stupid penalties - jumping offsides, holding ... His fame is in part due to Attention to Detail, fundamentals. For this season to be successful this needs to be a priority - get rid of the stupid stuff and this is an easy win.

I really despise the 4 standing around waiting for RJ, Ina to heave a 3 pointer with no one on the block boxing out for a rebound.
Carolina fans we needed this win and the guys found a way to get it late great job now let’s get back too work
No it was not a season saving win, We still starting slow as crap & always have to rely on a late surge to try & win it
Let’s celebrate the Win!! A win is a win, now we just have to keep working hard to be ready for the ACC!

Marc! Nice to see Campbell again!

Thanks Hubert for using the full court press more and going inside more than relying on the 333 and getting free throws.
We need to put Rj at point and put Cadeau on bench an let lan at 2

Did pick it 76-74. Luck
This team doesn’t have it
na uh. They should've lost this one too. Hubert Davis needs to send a stocking stuffer to Mick Cronin cuz that was a huge gift.
Maybe your team doesn't have it too. Unless it's Carolina.
Fools gold? Jackson seems to be very promising. That’s the best news. The new guys are trying. These are the new leaders arising. RJ, Elliot? Let’s see more. Need more consistency as they say.
We can't keep falling behind every game, playing catch up won't work very often, very fortunate tonite
Abysmal game. It was hard to watch. I was relived they managed to pull through but it was so ugly.
Practicing free throws is a must for all the players. Should have had a couple of more wins due to bad free throw shots. Elliot is way too inconsistent as of now. He has or will have the talent but makes too many hasty decisions as of now.

Still too much one man offense instead of making plays and relying on 3s.
Ugly basketball ….. need to make changes after the season
Everybody’s afraid to say it but it’s Elliot who should come off the bench. Ian has to start.
(And another thing, guys that Hubert is trying to recruit are watching this, they know that Ian should be starting but his performance is not being rewarded. We don’t want to scare recruits away.)
Don't get too excited, unc is not going nowhere! 😂. Still 👎🏻

Unless you win a Natty nobody goes anywhere but off the court crying. If you ain't first you're last. Ricky Bobby!
