Somebody explain this to me.

Espn top 25 power ranking

No UNC despite beating 2 of their top 20.

Nc state on the list.

And of course you know who they have at #1

There's a reason no one takes BPI seriously.

There's also no reason that any serious metric should have a "shake up", instead change should be gradual.

Also, BPI has Gonzaga ranked second...two spots ahead of Michigan who is undefeated and beat them by 40 points. The only way you can rank Gonzaga ahead of Michigan at this point is if you think each team only gets a limited number of points each season and Michigan is burning through theirs too quickly.

Why are we discussing Virginia Tech transfers?

Actually, we have been discussing several Carolina players who have transferred and the discussion has led to an interesting "debate" about which is the better route... keeping and developing players who originally came to UNC like Trimble or relying on the transfer portal to build a program.
 
Speaking of Cade Tyson:

It isn’t an either/or. Have to be able to do both

Agreed. I'd add that "team loyalty" by players is, realistically, a thing of the past. Players are going to go elsewhere, and that is just the nature of the beast. Generally, I neither root for, or against, players once they leave, but am happy when they find success elsewhere. But I'm not invested in that success. The two exceptions are Love and Cadeau, who were both situations where - as Bacot put it - "sometimes in life, you've got to get divorced. You have to do things like that. Caleb is like the wife you divorced, but you both still have kids together." For me, at least, both Love and Cadeau will always be Heels for me, but I'm also glad that they are both finishing their collegiate careers elsewhere, and finding success.
