R.J.? That guy gave it all for UNC for five years. That seems pretty tough and gritty to me.I totally agree that this program hasn't done a very good job of toughness and grit. Only two guys with that quality this yer felt like Withers and Lubin

Caleb Love - 5 star - transferred out. Not sure if the ripple effect has set in yet from that transfer. Maybe it has, with the failure to land a decent big last year. Should this be a trend ( and two 5 stars leaving and not landing a big, may be a trend), then this may be the beginning of the end for Hubert. If Ian leaves - and not to the pros, but portals out - the end may be nigh for Coach Davis unless he brings in a new starting 5 from the portal and they go Elite 8 next year.I do agree with a couple things cjones posted. The lack of player development is a concern. Now, I'm very reluctant to criticize the staff, but I think this is a valid point. Don't think any of our current coaches stand out as a player development expert.
The concern about losing EC is the ripple effect on future recruiting. Having a 5star player transfer out brings up all sort of doubt.
Love was shown the door. He did not really have the option to stay.Caleb Love - 5 star - transferred out. Not sure if the ripple effect has set in yet from that transfer.

UNC Basketball Offseason News: Elliot Cadeau to enter the transfer portal
After spending his first two college seasons in Chapel Hill, Elliot Cadeau appears to be headed for a fresh start elsewhere.keepingitheel.com
Ditto Trimble. Not sure who is going to question his grit and toughness.R.J.? That guy gave it all for UNC for five years. That seems pretty tough and gritty to me.
Which is even a worse look if you think about it.Love was shown the door. He did not really have the option to stay.
That really nice win stretch at the end of the season was partly fueled by ability to have more size on the court with Drake at the three while Withers crashed the boards and made a bunch of threes (huge props to Withers for that run, or maybe to HD for helping set up the opportunity). But it was also marked by less PT for Cadeau. And Trimble played a tiny bit less too.Cadeau is gone.

Was EC shown the door too?Love was shown the door. He did not really have the option to stay.
He played the same position as RJ. It simply was not a positional fit, especially with Cadeau starting in the Fall. That is one of those classic examples of a change being good for both the player and the team.Which is even a worse look if you think about it.
Was he shown the door, supposedly just like Love?Would love to know why he is leaving. More money somewhere else? Just didn't want to play for Hubert anymore? Hubert has a better PG coming in?
Yes, Elliot was shown the door, too.Was EC shown the door too?
Hubert gave Love every opportunity, every chance, let him shoot to his hearts content, shot us right out of some games at times, yet Hubert stuck with him… only to show him the door?
Same with EC, Hubert started him 68 out of his 74 games here. Gave him the keys to the car… let him turn the ball over, over and over, yet Hubert stuck with him… only to show him the door too?
According to whom?Yes, Elliot was shown the door, too.
NYCfan says I can't tell you.According to whom?
