ACC is awful

Imagine the NIL difference between UNC and VCu

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Only two misses so far, Ohio State and Wisconsin.

Who didn't pick VCU and Texas A&M?

No reason UNC shouldn't be a 3 seed or higher every year. He's going to get canned.

 

[Phat Stax]

I'll bet VCU's rivals call them VDU.

Jerry Stackhouse is a high possibility, have also heard Matt Painter on short list but they prefer to keep it in the UNC Family.

Saw their short list from last year and then also of interest and one Ben McCollum was on that along with Grant McCausland

Does Stack have coaching experience? Keeping it in the family is cool but it would be tough handing the reigns to someone with no D1 HC experience.

he had a stint at Vandy. Not a lot of success but also has NBA experience. I think they should look outside the UNC Family, but what do I know?

Comeon, Fran!

I don't miss that style of basketball at all.

I forgot he coached at Vandy. Not super successful but a major program.

Crap, sc just missed a bunny!

 

[HawksRule25]

Santa Clara misses a point blank shot (contested). Ball on the floor and refs give Kentucky the timeout.
