Im embarrassed to say that i have become so disinterested in UNC basketball that I didn't even realize we were playing so I could offer to give away our tickets. They just went unused.

I was wondering how many season ticket holders looked at their tickets and thought, “SMU? Week night game. Non-conference. I’m staying home.”

Lol, I didn't even know enough to get that far. That's 2 games in a row that I found out about after they were played.

Damn dude, I haven't been to a game in over a decade. While it is an 8 hour drive, don't let those go unused, give me a call. 😁

Is it style of play? because they aren't good?

the acc? NIL?

A mix of all of the above. It's mostly that we just plain play UGLY basketball. I also think that the ACC overall is a pretty awful league in basketball now and insanely bad in football. Makes it difficult to really get into.

Ive offered them up on here before. I'll try to remember to keep a check on the schedule. It's pretty much a guarantee that I won't go to any midweek games because I'm teaching at night.

Based on the number of empty seats I saw during the telecast, a fairly substantial number.
 
After his "what rivalry" comments, I sure hope Ian steps up tomorrow. Something tells me he will.

Well Women's basketball fits here right?
We beat dook last night in Carmichael
middle of 3rd quarter it was like Carolina 28-dook 16 Brutal game to watch

I watched the first quarter then tapped out at I believe 8 to 6. Brutal is being kind. But glad we won!
 
I'm watching it now.

It's now 16-16 at the half, both teams are shooting in the low 20s.

And it's not necessarily good defense, just really bad offensive execution on both ends.

Lots of Caleb Wilson buzz lately...looks like its a toss up with UK. Hubert badly needs that recruiting win.

It happened with Ian....

Definite important get for Hubert. Need some level of continuity in the HS ranks

Instant impact defender. Won't happen but imagine a lineup with Drake and Caleb at the 3/4
 
Something's gotta give with who starts in the foreseeable future. Ian's been GREAT subbing in for Seth as a starter. So good that it's going to be hard to sit him and not start him. But at the same time, Seth has been GREAT as a starter too, until on Dec. 28th he "got hit on the head really hard" (we can only surmise he's been out with concussion protocol).

Drake was a starter for several games before Seth's "upper body injury"... along side a revolving door of starters beside him, most notably Lubin and JWash (Did Withers get a start in there somewhere in December?)

But now Hubert will have to decide who starts.

Some have speculated 4 guards (Elliot, RJ, Seth and Ian) with one forward (JWash? Lubin?) Or does Hubert go with 3 guards and 2 bigs, like he started out this year? Or does he go with 5 guards (those 4 with Drake would be a 5 guard line up).

And of course, obviously it's not who actually starts, but who all is in the game at crunch time in the end - and who logs the most PT for the game (and that's not always the starters).

For the State game, I will not be surprised if Seth comes off the bench again - but gets a lion's share of minutes - like he did in the SMU game: 26 minutes off the bench. Starters Cadeau and JWash got only 18 and 15 respectively.

If Seth gets back to 100% and does NOT win his starting spot back, he may be pissed and wishing he had stayed in the Portal instead of coming back. I know I would be after starting the year like he did.
 
Guess I’ll dive into a minutes discussion.

PG - EC (25), RJ (15)
SG - RJ (15), ST (15), IJ (10)
SF - IJ (15), ST (10), DP (15)

DP can log some minutes at the 4 as well. Point being I think there are plenty of minutes, just have to get someone to buy into coming in off the bench. I know people want to start but at least it’s not a problem of having enough minutes for everyone. We’re definitely going to be small but I don’t see a way around that.
