UNC got talent but I'll be damned if I see Little and White in the league next year.

White reminds me of that dude that’s always at the hood Rec center hoopin .. . He really does nothing exceptionally well, but is kinda fast and has a helluva motor and can finish at the rim at a decent clip so he gets run. I think a more versatile guard would make all the difference with them .

@ZEupTWN what are you talking about Boeheim has OVERACHIEVED over the past few years ... that final four run was amazing ... he has been doing more with less. Terrible take . :smh:


SEC arguably has the nation’s two hottest teams right now .

Boeheim need to just hang it up...how many talented teams is he gonna underachieve with, shyt is just flat out ugly to watch....Hopkins would have had these dudes balling..

With that said Carolina looking like sleeper Final Four team....

No Hopkins wouldn't have. Stop it. Hop benefits from coaching in the worst conference in Division 1 Basketball. The thing about this Syracuse team is you don't know what you're going to get from them from game to game. If they played a full 40 minutes, they'd have just beat Duke and UNC. On nights they look like an Elite 8 team and there are others where they will lose the first game. Oshae Brissett is their most disappointing player this season. A key component who's gotten worse.

:stopitslime: your assessment got hate pumping all thru it. A 6'5" PG that's money from the cup all the way to the logo at half court, not "kinda fast"....Roy said he's neck and neck with Lawson with the fastest PG he's ever coached, plays good defense (you saw buddy from Cuse disappear when Coby started guarding him), and the point guard on a squad leading the league in assists. How much more versatile of a PG do you need?

He's easily the fastest pg in the ACC and he's an excellent shooter. Not a true pg, but more of a combo guard and he has average leaping ability

He’s the most awkward moving guard I’ve seen in a looong time ... there’s no fluidity to his floor movements ... he’s far from a true pg... again , we’ll see in the tourney. I’m just not wowed by him . If you think that’s gonna translate to the league , I gotta bridge to Alaska to sell you . Wish the best tho .

UNC fans are gonna be dumbfounded when Coby enters the draft after this season

their fanbase, especially older fans, are usually clueless that a player would not want to finish their education at UNC and go make millions

Think it depends on what his projections will be ... but if they win the chip this year , he’ll bounce regardless . There’s a lot he could still work on to get more league ready, but why do that in college when he could go to the g-league — or best case scenario — an nba bench to learn ?

:mjlol: you're a hater. Now in order to get your approval he has to be a "true" pg??? Nobody in this era of NBA is a "true" anything. If you don't think being 6'5", just as fast end to end with the ball in your hands as a young John Wall, shooting 37% from 3, 83% FT, and being the primary ball handler on a top 5 team that leads the conference in assists and plays at the fastest pace of Roy Williams career doesn't translate to the league, then you're either stupid or a hater. Pundits still running around with the "Dook has 4 first rounders" narrative even though one of those "1st rounders" is a 6'3" point guard that's 4th, at best, on other teams scouting reports and still only giving you 8ppg and 5ast while shooting 40% fg and 23% 3fg. But hey, he's a "true" point guard tho, right? Coby at the next level with the spacing and pick and roll will be all star levels good. Yet you limp in with the hating narrative instead.

UNC fans have been use to losing players early to NBA since the early 80s :gucci:

Most fans expect him and Nas to leave
