Sucks how good of a job Holtmann has done because Keatts really deserves more plaudits for what he's done.

Like look at the article gasaway linked lol

Quote :
"Keatts will face the ACC with Abdul-Malik Abu, Torin Dorn, Lennard Freeman, Markell Johnson, Baylor graduate transfer Al Freeman ... and that's about where the certainties end. NC State is waiting to hear whether Terry Henderson will be granted a sixth year of eligibility. Meanwhile Ted Kapita is reportedly leaning toward staying in the draft, and Omer Yurtseven also has yet to make a decision."


remember when we were pissed about the henderson decision? and kapita declared? shit, wasn't maverick rowan on our roster? that all feels like years ago

Not sure if it's KK or Al Freeman (I'll give credit to both), but the way he has been reigned in and begun to play with the team has really changed the way we play on the offensive end. I think it's made Freeman better on the defensive end.

As someone who railed on the kid for the first third of the ACC schedule because of how bad he was, I gotta give him props for the turnaround.

Cred +1. Solid win today. That said...we traditionally lose the next 5 after decisive wins.

I'm surprised everday about what happens when you have a real coach. I'm shocked when I see a massive problem in one game and BAM its addressed in the following game. Its almost like we have practices based on team performance

I'm still pissed about losing Henderson, personally.

"I told Dr. Yow I was going to win 35 games this year. My opinion hasn't changed. We are learning how to play hard, we don't have a special formula. We have gotten better because we have done well in individual workouts. They are starting to believe in one another."


Winning out would only be 33 wins. -2 credibility

Swofford will change the tournament format right before the ACC tourney starts. We'll win out, but we'll have to win 4 games.

Despite being 28-7, the selection committee will be very, very hard on us for the UNCG and NIU losses, and will put us in a play-in game, causing us to have to win 7 straight to cut down the net, finishing with a 35-7 record.

rwoody -2 credibility for lack of imagination

We also traditionally lose after beating unc and duke and KK bucked that trend. It’s a new era.

I don't want to be sold on this guy because I feel like when I do we'll start losing. I read the entire Wikipedia entry on Hargrave. Why did he stay there for almost 10 years? Sounds like a depressing place to be. However, I can imagine it really whips someone into shape, student or teacher. Why does he like ice cream so much? Why does he sometimes glow like Jesus? Is he Jesus or does ice cream help your complexion? Do I love him? I feel so many things and I'm just not sure where they'll end up.

I'm experiencing strange new feelings about him as well. I've learned a lot about myself and the fluid nature of sexuality generally since he has become our coach.

Yurt is an engineer major. I get the feeling he's not leaving unless he's a lotto pick.

^^^ We're adding 6'5, 6'5, 6'6, 6'7, 6'9, 6'9, and 6'10

Not anybody Yurt size, but that's decent across the board

We've already filled Yurt's scholarship, if he doesn't leave, we're going to have to kick someone else off the team.

Yurt made it fairly clear he was going pro even if he had an awful year, he'd just go overseas. I'd love for him to return but I'd put the odds of him returning at extremely low.

Yurt ain’t coming back. Hicks is probably gonna transfer. And KK is still recruiting for the 18 class so there could be other attrition

I'll just say for part of it someone behind the scenes is not happy with the attendance he's getting and worried this is a new Herb on hand. They've discussed bringing out the big black shame curtain permanently or reducing the area to 10,000 once the Hurricanes move.

^^saw somewhere that Hicks injury will hurt his ability to transfer and may prevent coaches from nudging him bc of perception

We’ve all just agreed to ignore PandB right?

^^ yeah I wondered how his injury would factor into it. Seems like he’d have been better off to transfer mid season (like Kirk) so he’d be eligible sooner. Especially since he’s already sitting out with injury and then would sit another year for transfer.

Unless Hicks is awful or just doesn't fit in KK's system...he'd be foolish to leave. We're losing every single big ahead of him on the roster.

New Wolfpack Hustle: Chapter 10 is out. Great as always. At 16:44, KK talks about 12/9. How it is important to come out with a lot of energy and get on top early for the Noon (12) and (9:00PM games. This is seemingly obvious, but the fact that he is saying this kind of stuff shows that he will not overlook any minor detail.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1004&v=DA8b1jniFv0

And as a program, we have seen our share of teams come out completely flat, especially for the Noon games.

i don't disagree. but we'll need to lose a couple guys somewhere with the numbers we've got coming in.

am I missing somebody? you get 13 scholarships right?

Kells/Batts
Beverly/Daniels
Bryce/Dorn
Hicks/Bey/Hellems
Funderburk/Bates/Steere

is only 12.. Spencer Newman is the only other guy on our roster and I don't think he's getting one?

The dude transferring from Missouri, Blake Harris.

We're currently full in regards to scholarships for next year, but someone could surprise and go pro. Also if somehow we landed Anfernee Simons, something would have to give. Maybe Harris would walk-on next year (he's currently not on scholarship)

yeah we’re over one now. Yurt is gone, so that means we’re back to capacity. Kirk transferring obviously helped in that regard. But we’re still actively recruiting for 18...wouldn’t be surprised to see the staff add somebody else. Which would mean somebody would need to go.

Yeah me saying we're full for next year includes Yurtseven leaving.

Mainly because the only way he's not a 1st round pick at this point is if he tears both his knees completely the fuck apart.

I think Simons is really the only 2018 player they're still recruiting, and having to make room for a top 10 recruit is a pretty good problem to have.

it seemed like insurance against Markell's uncertain future at the time. not so much now.

Yeah on the surface the Harris addition looked like a bit of a panic to Markell being down and Harris being basically another Markell(pass first and play defense) type of guard.

But really, it's not a bad fit and helps with our small-ball approach. Also it helps with our scholarship spacing. Hopefully Markell isn't thinking about going pro, but the more I think about it, Dorn is a likely candidate to either test the waters or consider going international.

G: Markell(JR)/Harris(SO)
G: Beverly(SO)/Batts(SO)
F: Bryce(R-JR)/Daniels(R-SO)
F: Dorn(R-SR)/Bey(FR)/Hellems(FR)
F: Hicks(R-SO)/Funderburk(R-SO?)/Bates(FR)/Steere(FR)

Team:
FR - 4
SO - 6
JR - 2
SR - 1
