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

Most fans expect him and Nas to leave

just going by what I see, the comment section on facebook for a player saying he's entering the draft is nothing but angry fans saying he better stay. I remember there was a story that Maye was testing draft waters and UNC fans commenting saying he's stupid for considering leaving.

UNC fans aren't used to it they only had 1 one and done player in the past 10yrs. Tony Bradley.

Nova is playing pissed right now.

Howard can’t do anything.

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.


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 .

..the lack of discpline and focus at crucial times is what gets me and that a direct result of who?..... there is plenty of talent on that team to make up the difference, but there is obviously a problem with those guys being coached up...am i wrong?....what Bennett is doing at UVA is overachieving, what Barnes is doing at UT is overachieving....this is not Penn State this is Syracuse, they are still pulling plenty of 5 and 4 star talent...... I'll give yall the final four...but even that team barely made it in the tourney....I respect Jim's legend and he does deserve to leave when he wants but his coaching style is odd and outdated....

Just my opinion as a fan of the game straight up btw, I hold no ties:yeshrug:

Markus Howard puts up great numbers but this game vs Nova shows why he won’t be an NBA player. All you have to do is put a big athletic guard on him and you can easily neutralize him. I saw this when he went against Diallo from Providence and Justin Simon with us.

No offense to Howard but Marquette will go only as far as those Hauser brothers take them.

Need this win over Vandy tonight or our tourney hopes are done for
Damn shame, but we was in the same situation. That overgrown retriever mfer from UGA kept pushing us to the brink but we pulled it out. I think we can stay on the right side of the bubble if we beat UA on the road and lose convincingly to UT (or win ideally). I dont know how they gauge the MSU game although losing to them now would be alot different than when we lost to them a couple months ago

Gonna be alot of in-fighting knocking hopes off the stage in the next few days

Kentucky is going to have a tough time with Reid out today against Tennessee, have a feeling grant Williams is going to get their bigs in foul trouble, he's one of the most talented floppers I've seen.
