Nas gone
- Thread starter germantondevil
- Start date
April fools, Roy isn't going to tolerate this type of behavior on his watch. lol Good move for Nassir, he's better off making the jump, another year under Roy and he loses out on several millions.
I’m expecting Coby White will announce soon that he’s declaring for the draft too
He didn't want to become another James Michael Mcaboo..
Yeah really hoping to see White announce soon for the draft he was a player
Good move Nas, Roy would have had you down to a 2nd rounder next year
Seemed like a no-brainer for him. Here's the link.

Little wanted to make sure he beat Zion and RJ in at least one thing, even if just by a few days or weeks.
Thanks for the link. I really thought it was an April Fools Day joke. hof coach roy williams must be throwing a hissy fit. He needs to work on white. "Nanner puddin" everyday or something to keep him in wussy blue. OFC
It’s always interesting to see these play out. Obviously we all know the final answer for all these players, but it’s interesting to see how long it takes and what is said before the decision is made. I’m sure some may just say the right/polite things but I do think some are legitimately torn as to what they want to do, leave or stay. It’s the emotional response to losing that has to die down before ultimately the player makes the sound decision. Doesn’t appear it took Nas too long to reach the finish line. Read into that what you will.
Please
Dude never had lottery pick skills..whomever thought that should have been fired immediately as a GM
UNC is losing their top 5 players. That will be tough to replace. I find it interesting that in the McDonald's game, Cole Anthony said he would wait to sign because he'd like to see what teammates he'd have around him - and he wants to play for a school where he'd have a good chance of playing in the Final Four. Well, that probably isn't going to be North Carolina with a cupboard that is almost bare. And certainly not Georgetown or Notre Dame. Oregon would make sense, except Payton Pritchard is already the point guard there. I suppose they might be fine playing together, as Anthony is more of a scoring guard than a facilitator. I suspect he'll end up signing with UNC, but they won't exactly be stacked.
Even with Cole Anthony, it's hard to envision a lineup of Anthony, Seventh Woods/Brandon Robinson, Leaky Black, Garrison Brooks, and Armando Bacot doing much damage. I could see a 4 seed, best case scenario. But probably closer to being a 6 or 7 seed.

NASSIR LITTLE. You may remember him, kid out of Orlando. Was paid $150k to go to Arizona but that when that blew up, he hired Lori Loughlin to get him into UNC. A short time later he dominated the high school all-star games. Quickly shot up the draft boards and at one point was projected #2 just behind RJ (while Zion was #7). Was touted as the next MJ and destined to take the NCAA by storm. But shortly after arriving on campus he disappeared after an incident in the dorms. Peter Van Sant of 48 Hours did a missing persons report on him and foul play was suspected. Every now and then a rather cryptic tweet regarding Duke is sent from his twitter account, but the sender or location were never verified by the authorities. Then, one day in early November, a tall dark man wearing a Nassir Little jersey appeared on the UNC bench. Conspiracy theorists claim he is a 36 year old Bahamian man named Colton Joseph who was spotted playing pick-up games in Freeport. Witnesses say Joseph was whisked away without warning on a private plane bound for RDU. Worried his limited basketball skills may give him away, Joseph was relegated to spot minutes and mop up duties throughout the season. Now "Nassir Little" is headed to the big leagues, certain to make a small fortune due to his promising potential he showed in high school. Forever indebted to Roy Williams for not exposing his lack of handles and shot making ability, rumor has it that he promised to send every third game check to 'Ol Huckleberry. Meanwhile, the real silver lining here is that Colton Joseph's family (who are practically destitute) are expecting to receive a wire in the amount of $750,000 USD--or half of "Nassir Little's" expected signing bonus, in a few short months. Its great news for the local community and his family.
Agreed, if we only add Cole.
We're linked to a few grad transfers so I think that's the way we go assuming we miss on Hurt and Precious.
I saw UNC did have some interest in a couple quality grad transfers. Pierce or Tucker could probably start. Here are the numbers, if anyone is interested:
-Justin Pierce, 6-7, 215, F, William & Mary
Stats: 14.9 ppg, 8.9 rpg, 4.1 apg
-Rayjon Tucker, 6-5, 210, SG, Little Rock
Stats: 20.3 ppg, 6.7 rpg, 41% 3-pointers
-Daniel Utomi, 6-6, 215, PF, Akron
Stats: 14.2 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 37% 3-pointers
Some people are already saying Tucker is a done deal. We could fit 2 guys under scholly but I think Roy is going to wait to likely strike out with Hurt/Precious.
I think Hurt could step into either program and be a very good 3rd scorer right away.
So you guys potentially could have a Leaky and a precious?? Lol
