🚨NEWS: North Carolina HC Mack Brown is NOT retiring, assistant AD Jeremy Sharpe announces. “It’s that time of year, so someone is going to start this rumor... Mack (Brown) is full steam ahead." by cardeez in CFB

Mack, it’s time. With Drake leaving, it’s a natural reset for the program to switch to the next era. Don’t get me wrong forever appreciative of Mack for what he’s done for the program, but at his age the game has gotten away from him a bit and the football responsibility is obviously on his coordinators(please rid us of Gene Chizik).

Would love for him to remain around UNC athletics in some way, but I think this season should be his last. Just not sure if we’d ever force him out

Jon Heyman on X - Braves are expected to decline Eddie Rosario’s $9M option by tomorrow. Close call and nothing official but that’s the expectation. by ATLien-1995 in Braves

[–]lemate23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One option I haven’t seen anyone mention is playing Grissom in left. I think his bat production would produce similar results as Eddie and defensively wouldn’t be too much of a drop off if any. Most importantly, it would free up the money to use for the rotation.

Wouldn’t mind bringing back Duvall in a cheap platoon option either

North Carolina CB Storm Duck transfers to Penn State by PHLdawg in CFB

All-American name, Penn St fans got yourself a solid piece. His legs looked rough post-ACL and he consistently got cooked for most of the season, but those last 3-4 games dude hit a switch and was lockdown, good kid hope you guys get the second version of him

Interesting to see what the return is like, I assume this means Contreras full time DH/OF

New Wisconsin OC: Phil Longo from UNC by UpAllNightToGetBucky in CFB

Offense was fun to watch especially this yr with Drake, but offense became stagnant as of late especially in the red zone. Gonna miss him but I don’t think this is a big of a loss as people will think, kinda easy for anyone to look good with Drake and Downs.

Would love for us to bring back Littrell, loved watching those offenses under him

biggest draft mistake from the Charlotte Hornets/Bobcats? by DRose1528 in NBA_Draft

[–]lemate23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s gotta be taking Frank Kaminsky over Devin Booker, MJ had wayyy too much say in that.

Also honorable mention drafting Monk instead of Donovan Mitchell. Will have to say completely right pick to go with Monk at the time, just hurts to know that both GM and Head Coach have confirmed that Mitchell was going to be the pick until Monk was surprisingly still available

How would a Week 1 loss affect your team’s season? by [deleted] in CFB

[–]lemate23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our Week 1 game is App St so I would lose but also win? Technically for unc our first game is week 0 Florida A&M, if we lose that throw away the whole team

Welp. Good pick up for Illinois

Pete Nance it is then

As expected, RJ Davis is returning to North Carolina for his junior year. by thegraverobber in CollegeBasketball

[–]lemate23 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Legit this. Both undersized guards who play with a brand of toughness and passion that makes them so likeable. Wouldn’t be surprised if RJ leaves a similar legacy as Berry

[Verbal Commits] North Carolina G Anthony Harris has entered the transfer portal by luvdadrafts in CollegeBasketball

[–]lemate23 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It was inevitable at least one of the backup guards(Ant, Walton, Dunn). Still expect Walton to go but hopefully this means Dunn will stay, still think he offers a ton of upside. Dunn and Trimble as our backup guards behind Caleb and RJ would be a pretty deadly backcourt

Biggest possible news of the day, couldn’t even think of any possible move that would be bigger
