Before the season starts I want to go on record of my predictions
- UNC finishes second in the ACC
- 3 seed in March
- sweet 16 exit
- Drake Powell goes top 10
- Ian goes first round
- RJ comes that shy of the UNC record
- EC takes a big leap
After watching the UNC scrimmage there are a few things that I saw
1) Hubert tried to be too smart and it backfired. J wash is already injured and there is no back up
2) withers continues to hesitate before shooting and it’s not looking like he will be a good shooter
@RossMartinNC
That’s soft. Don’t try and come at someone and get his job removed he’s just trying to avoid something worse happening while tensions were high. Honestly he did the right thing
@DukeFansZone
“Get ready to learn Paolo” “get ready to learn Dariq whitehead” “get ready to learn Jalen Johnson” “get ready to learn Zion Williamson” does it ever get old!??
Media day is tomorrow for UNC basketball. Will someone have the courage to ask Hubert about the misses in the portal in the front court??? My guess is no
3) Elliot looked really good. No complaints at all
4) Ian was fine but he take a lot of Caleb love shots so better get used to it
5) Cade Tyson looked very good
6) Zayden was very impressive
7) VAL was not the transfer we should have picked up. I’m sure he’s fine but ugo >
@CBKReport
Houston is a joke. I’m so sick of them every year scheduling cupcakes. It’s getting sickening that we buy into it every offseaaon and then they lose in the tournament.
@BarstoolBDevils
He’s not wrong you’re just trying to save face. Flip clearly tried to trip the fan. I don’t condone what the other fan did by pushing him. But the video clearly shows no sign of an ankle injury. Argue with a wall but it’s clear as day.
@MikeHoopsPage
This was said last year when y’all said flip when he sees Harrison Ingram guarding him. Also said about tyrese proctor when he sees Elliot guarding him. It’s just a new version every year
@6thhBanner
What’s this your 100th tweet about UNC this week. From a fanbase that talks about how much others talk about them you sure do a lot of talking about us
@UpdateDuke
Don’t understand Jon sometimes. He’s gotta stop overecruiting. Idc what any of yall say give me 5th year experience roach over kon whatever his last name is and foster. Yall can argue with me cause you love young player but damn 43% three and has played in a final 4😭
@UNCBarstool
It doesn’t make sense that he’s “content with the roster” it’s not good enough in the front court. We can’t have j wash playing 30+ min a night.
@PauloAlvesNBA
God this fanbase is horrible sometimes. Too emotionally attached to players in the offseason but anytime it’s time to get better and possibly make a trade, the player we’re trading for is not good enough or we’re giving up too much. May I remind yall we have not been good.
@bjohnson_23
@DukeMuse
How bout his duke diploma cause he for damn sure doesn’t have one . Good news for him Yankees season is around the corner. If that doesn’t work out he’s always got the cowboys or lakers 😭😭😭
@MikeHoopsPage
How many times are we going to do this? No reason for your fanbase to shit on our starting 1 when you cannot even beat him. Worry about your own team
@TheHateCentral
@TheDunkCentral
@mcten
Smart strat. Honestly I think Celtics win game 2 but Tatum starts feeling like he needs to do more to get finals mvp and the mavs capitalize
@AggiesToday
Not going to lie AT I don’t believe for a second you talked to a donor😭 those dudes are like 70+ years old. I’m not sure their communicating through twitter or even message
@BarstoolBDevils
That’s honestly all you have. Every year it’s the same shit with y’all. Can’t wait for the newest addition after striking out in March

@dukebbhoops
Way way way too many freshmen. Gotta take in about half of these guys and then fill the rest with experienced portal players. Duke fans will be mad at me for saying this but it’s honestly the truth. These guys are 17-18 years old.
This account is run by a 15 year old kid who only roots for Duke because they are popular and are a big brand. He talks very loud in the offseason and clearly thinks he’s funny. Not every Duke fan is terrible on this app but this kid clearly has no ties to Duke and talks the most
UNC has reached out to Georgia Tech transfer Tyzhaun Claude, per Trilly Donovan.
Averaged 4.8 PPG & 5.2 RPG with the Yellow Jackets last season and averaged 15.4 PPG & 8.6 the season before with Western Carolina.
North Carolina native with one year of eligibility left
@tayxxtayy
@mosthatedfan
You’re right he couldn’t do it by himself. What about the 9 other 5 stars on the roster. I believe if my facts are correct Duke didn’t play a single 4-3 star against unc. All 5 stars. But he needs more help😭😭😭
@Rhymetime05
Was always his time. Doesn’t excuse the fact that we are so short handed in the front court because Hubert couldn’t put together a solid roster
@jonscheyerlover
99% sure you have gotten on my ass because UNC “did not win the natty” the year Caleb hit the shot. So if you can dish it you better be able to take it. Stop complaining
Idk man… I get the whole issue with credits and all but lately it seems like there’s always an issue when it comes to UNC recruiting but other teams never seem to have issues. Just frustrated, we will be ok tho
Duke scrimmage thoughts (might as well)
1) their team is very big
2) Khaman Maluach scares the shit out of me. He is going to be a problem
3) they may be offensively challenged if proctor doesn’t take a huge leap
4) Isaiah Evans learning curve may take a min
@UpdateDuke
I said that but every time I speak bad about a 5 star y’all all get angry and defensive. It’s fun to recruit the 5 stars but experienced portal guys are important as well
@BarstoolBDevils
Yall posted a pic of 3 players who didn’t contribute to the game as y’all’s cope for the biggest L in rivalry history. You had to wait 2 years for a cope and it’s not even one that has any impact 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭im crying
@DukeFansZone
@polo81920
Ok then if “Duke went further in March which is the whole point.” I don’t want to ever hear “what happened the next game” when this gets shown.
@dukebluesamurai
Duke fans hating on UConn is so funny😭😭😭 literal back to back national champs. Yall brag about a 17 year old they brag about winning. It’s so funny and embarrassing for yall
@DukeFansZone
Don’t think I’ve said that once. I just want to build a roster and not focus on one player like yall. Roster construction is a thing not just a collection of 5 stars
