I think this is the most balanced/accurate explanation that I have read thus far.
I guess David Hale is now out to get BB & company too.
Again, if half of that is true, we’ve got a bad situation on our hands.

Totally agree. And it’s damning enough in its own right- and necessitating of an ending of this experiment sooner rather than later- without any tabloid-esque exaggeration.

You could send an unsolicited letter of recommendation. Maybe Marco Eubio will insert himself again.

Thanks. I'll have to like Orlando (person, not city) now.
"on multiple occasions when they didn't find players they signed to be useful, they simply cut off NIL/rev share/aid, with parents having to drive to campus on short notice because players were being booted from housing. (One was an international student!)"
Terry Nwabuisi-Ezeala is the only international HS or Winter signee I can thank of that left the team.
But he wound up at Vandy. A huge DT... Like Devin Ancrum, Ladarrion Williams and several other late DT additions.
Good enough for Vandy, but not good enough for us relative to the rest of the DT new to the roster? Doesn't make sense.
Sounds like horrible botching of roster numbers and roster $.

Old rich man blaming everyone else for their own fuckups. Seen that before.

Don't worry y'all. We'll have a good team once Mike (visage below) rids himself of all the subpar players that he recruited and enrolled last year, and replaces them with better players that he'll recruit from HS and the portal at the end of this season. He even said so!

Why you ask? Because he's making $1.5 million a year, has a giant ego, and ostensibly knows what he's doing! Seems like a modest proposal.
Full copy of UNC GM Michael Lombardi's email to top boosters amid mounting losses
Lombardi explained North Carolina's need to sign a large 2026 recruiting class amid a roster rebuild that did not go to plan in 2025.

Imagine getting an email like that from the guy you’re paying orders of magnitude more money than the GMs from the best programs in the country lol.Don't worry y'all.

Then again these are the boosters that were dumb enough to fall for Lombardi’s nonsensical plan in the first place so maybe they ate up this bullshit too.

In short, Mike admitted he did a bad job recruiting, and after throwing all the current players under the bus, said he will right the ship by recruiting a whole new set of players that will apparently work under the system.
