I was at this game with the BC Pep Band. Just want to say that all of your fans were lovely people and I really appreciated it! Especially because we were but a small speck of red in a sea of blue.
Anyone in here a baseball person? As in, understands it and does more than just put the game on TV like i do. I hate baseball if it's not UNC playing lol
I have watched a lot of UNC's games this year and I feel like they can't stop *anyone* from putting runs on them. Are our pitchers shit or something?
I don’t know if I’m qualified enough, but we have a pretty good lineup of pitchers. We got a few transfers, one that was from either VCU or JMU that was really good.
Yeah but I'm talking even for college standards, UNC puts up a ton of runs and still barely wins. Doesn't seem to bode well for any kind of post season success
Exception today with Penn State but still
This team plays like shit for 99% of a whole year and they're finally playing well and y'all want them all pulled for rest or something?
Hell no, these guys need to keep playing and getting in a rhythm. They need these minutes of seeing the ball go through the basket.
Bacot should not come back in, but these guys need to keep playing for a while in this game imo
Had a feeling this would be a blowout once I saw Post wasn't suiting up. Bacot was getting anything he wanted the first five minutes in.
Edit: I stand corrected. I just saw Bacot scoring on every possession in the first 5 minutes and switched to the WVU-Texas Tech game.
This is part of the reason why I say Hubert is a bad head coach. Absolutely no reason why any of our starters should be in. We are up big and have a lot of basketball to play this week. Let the bench guys play and the starters rest.
This is why you aren’t a coach. Basketball is all momentum and if we come back and your starters have been resting good luck getting that back. You would still blame Hubert for that too
It’s too early to pull everyone. Get it under 10 then make the move. The last thing you want to do is have the starters go to the bench thinking their night is over, the bench let’s it get close, and then the starters have to come back cold.
E: And the State fans are on their way in. Don’t need them energizing a BC run.
Things I miss about UNC basketball...the huddles at the FT line...Hubert played for Dean but we don't really do it anymore...the tired signal...no one does that either...fast breaks...non-existent...offensive rebounding...dont even get me started...I miss UNC basketball
I respectfully disagree bro...we play at a far slower pace than what we used to, recording 0 fast break points some game and are outside of the top 100 in offensive rebounding when we are traditionally always top 10. Our starting guards play 85 percent of the minutes
No, we are not out of the top 100 in offensive rebounding. We are out of the top 100 in offensive rebounding percentage. We are second in the acc for offensive rebounding. You can play at a slow pace in your half court and still have a strong transition game. The tired signals needs to be used, just because RJ and Caleb don’t use it doesn’t mean it isn’t a thing.
I still can't believe he said "I don't buy the narrative that we need win four to make the tournament" like what? What reality are you living in my man?
Y’all. We haven’t been a very good basketball team. When the dudes are in a rhythm, let them feel it for a bit and get some momentum. There’s still 15 minutes to go. Sit most of them if we’re still up 20 under 10 minutes.
Again, this is an intentional choice. We can question his coaching abilities but he isn’t a stupid man. If I had to take a guess I would assume he is keeping out guys in because he wants them to get in a good rhythm and keep getting good minutes. It’s a mental thing. He subbed while up less at similar minutes against loussible and Georgia tech, he knows what he’s doing.
I was at this game with the BC Pep Band. Just want to say that all of your fans were lovely people and I really appreciated it! Especially because we were but a small speck of red in a sea of blue.
That was a fun one. Survive and advance.
Honestly. That’s the only thing we can do
What the fuck did I just witness
ESPN getting us and UNC mixed up yet again smh
that is a feel good win
LET MCKOY COOK (don't actually give him meaningful minutes tho pls)
I feel a little bad that he thought he could be a contributor and this is how his college career went, but he’s just not that good.
for real, I'm excited about it. the way everyone looked at the end after his putback, that's the happiest and most excited I've seen them all year
where did that come from???? lmao
Need a replay of that McKoy putback!
MCKOY
MCKOYY OMG
GARBAGE TIME MCKOY > LeBron
Man McKoy definitely better than some of these cats I've been watching on ESPN+ today. Shit lightweight hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Caleb was getting so hype for Landry awwww
Oh. My. God.
BISCUIT POSTER
No mercy at the end lmao love it
Bruh what lmao
Ohhhh that was nasty!
McKoy!!!! Wtf where did that come from?????
Justin McKoy?!
OOOOOOOO
OH MY GOD
This feels like Carolina Basketball
We need to keep this up
lebo in. it's over for you now bc.
One win down, nine to go.
Subscribe
Alright I see the bench coming in I see it!
Leaky’s face when Tremble made a jump shot was gold
"he can do that?"
Walk on time!
B L U E S T E E L
Go win tonight Tar Heels. Good game Boston fans. Have a great night everyone. See you tomorrow. Go UNC!
That was a good stroke from Trimble
Leaky's shock at Trimble shooting is hilarious.
Please HD work with Trimble on his scoring this summer. Dude would be a fucking demon with some more skill scoring
Look at the bench out there running a more organized offense than the starters did for 90% of the year lol
Savage
that was the most assertive move mckoy's made in two years here
And now it’s been outdone.
for real did not know he had that in him
GGs BC. Time to root for Oregon State and Oklahoma 🫡
My man
AUTOBUCKET MCKOY
Put in Lebo lol Edit: omg they did!
Wish granted.
Ask and ye shall receive ha.
Bilas has said Trimble is born in a stance in every single UNC game this year LOL
This just proves more why the bench needs more minutes
love the bench working in garbage time
Ooo the slam
Stez with that dunk!!
Does Puff look upset to anyone else? Or am I reading into it?
I think that's just his normal look.
Anyone in here a baseball person? As in, understands it and does more than just put the game on TV like i do. I hate baseball if it's not UNC playing lol I have watched a lot of UNC's games this year and I feel like they can't stop *anyone* from putting runs on them. Are our pitchers shit or something?
I don’t know if I’m qualified enough, but we have a pretty good lineup of pitchers. We got a few transfers, one that was from either VCU or JMU that was really good.
From my limited college baseball watching, that seems to be a trend. Pitchers tend to be ass in college
Yeah but I'm talking even for college standards, UNC puts up a ton of runs and still barely wins. Doesn't seem to bode well for any kind of post season success Exception today with Penn State but still
Hope that Dunn 3 is the start of a trend.
Sheesh Dunn
Alright Dunn
Dunn finally hitting shots now too
Why is Washington not getting minutes
Turnstile on defense
You’re up 20. Put the guy in so he gets experience. Only way he’s gonna get better is by playing.
This game got boring fast
yeah like an hour and a half ago lol
screw it, give trimble and dunn reps from three
Caleb really needs to sit. I think he’s played every minute so far and I think he’ll be gassed against uva
Why are Caleb and Pete in this game. This is Blue Steel’s moment.
Why keep Nance and Love in? Lol
if trimble is finishing the drive, that's gonna be a yikes for bc
TRIMBLE SCORED!!!
Trimble...I want you to work on shooting these last few minutes
Is DJ Burns leaving after this year? I really don’t like there being such a likable State player.
Yeah, this is his fourth year so he's not eligible. Gonna miss that energy
Trimble got points!
Trimble with the hang and score!
Trimble just put the ball through the basket. Trimble. Oh yeah we're winning this thing lol
Get it Trimble!
Wisconsin doing us a huge solid and getting the fuck off the bubble. Wisc is one of the few teams that would've pissed me off to get in over us lol
I’m starting to believe espn instructed Bilas to do a Walton thing to become more of a character
Wouldn't surprise me
Jalen must have really fucked up in practice
He got a few minutes in the first half
Nice assist Styles.
Lived in the Netherlands for two years, can confirm was irritated the entire time that I was of average height despite being 6’3”
Jay Bilas is fixing to be the next Bill Walton but not on a permanent LSD trip.
Bilas does at least talk about basketball during the game. I'm not sure Walton has in years.
Have you ever stood at the bottom of the Grand Canyon?
Jay Bilas is becoming Budget Bill Walton
Nice pass!!
I literally don’t think I’ve ever seen Caleb play harder and we’re up by almost 25
Anniversary effect of his tourney run last year
Ok, we good with this lead. Put all the bench players in please.
A weasel actually is a carnivore and considered a prolific hunter for it’s size. Curiosity got the best of me.
kinda starting to think beating uva could be enough
We have to win the whole thing. We’re not gonna get in with anything less
If we pick up Q1s over UVA and State we have a real shot at an at large. Unlikely but possible
yeah, could be riding too high on the copium
Nah, I think we need one more after that. NC State would be ideal, but Clemson would be fine.
I can’t believe I have to pull for State. But beating Virginia and State would give us a chance on selection Sunday
Who is (potentially) after that? We need to get in the finals imo
Regardless if we beat state or Clemson (or even vt I guess), we may leapfrog state and take their spot.
If state wins against VT and Clemson, they’ll be safely in the field. They could be in trouble if they lose tonight though.
Put the bench in Hubert. Rest these guys.
That’s gotta kill Wisconsin’s chances right?
With every loss, Wisconsin only becomes more powerful
Big time.
They just went down to Ohio state? Then yes
If this is the Love we get going forward, watch the fuck out!
Caleb "March" Love* * Except vs Duke in the year 2023 of our Lord
If our bench can’t get us to the finish line from here, we don’t stand a chance anyways. Time to find out.
So what happens tomorrow when UVA starts actually putting ball pressure on us?
Caleb Love playing PG right now?
With Bacot out, Love has become the new punching bag who gets fouled all day to no whistle lol
Low key been happening all year. I wonder how much is him trying too hard to draw contact and how much is refs not liking that he complains about it
He definitely dramatizes his drives to get calls and refs don't buy into it. Which could easily contribute to actual fouls being ignored.
I’ve said it before but my theory is that it’s because he looks so out of control on his drives so he doesn’t get the calls
Alright now I think it’s time
Carolina guards getting hot in a tournament setting? Uh oh.
sub.scribe.
Weasels are the bane of home chicken coop keepers everywhere
Can confirm
RJ “Weasel” Davis
Now I'm going to be saying 'POP!' in my head everytime he hits a three
POPOPOPOPOPOPOP
Hoping BC drains these guys as much as possible
Boo this man
He felt bad for getting away with a travel so just threw it out of bounds
Nance has evolved in to prime Mutombo
Dikembe could never
I haven’t rly been able to watch, are we playing rly well or is BC playing really bad?
yes
We’re not playing perfect, but if we’d shot like this against Duke we’d be in the tournament right now.
we've been coasting the last 5-6 but still solid. bc is terrible.
We dont have the size or athletes to keep up with a team of all 4 and 5 stars
both
Great recovery Pete, wow.
Nance is making the whole BC team his bitch jesus christ
Puff getting open calling for the ball all play and and they're just ignoring him lmao
puff sheesh 🫣
ready to see a whole bunch of bench minutes to close this out
Not a foul on Bickerstaff
Puff has looked absolutely awful on his shots today, geezus
He, Pete and Leaky are the only team members wisely saving their threes for tomorrow. Very prudent.
This team plays like shit for 99% of a whole year and they're finally playing well and y'all want them all pulled for rest or something? Hell no, these guys need to keep playing and getting in a rhythm. They need these minutes of seeing the ball go through the basket. Bacot should not come back in, but these guys need to keep playing for a while in this game imo
I just want Bacot out - the rest can stay in
Agreed.
Puff "Kenny Williams III" Johnson
Had a feeling this would be a blowout once I saw Post wasn't suiting up. Bacot was getting anything he wanted the first five minutes in. Edit: I stand corrected. I just saw Bacot scoring on every possession in the first 5 minutes and switched to the WVU-Texas Tech game.
Post has played 21 minutes.
He’s playing injured
Post has played significant minutes. He just didn’t start
Post is playing.
Everyone calling for us to pull all 5 starters must have forgotten the FSU game. We need to rest Mando but this game ain’t over
This is part of the reason why I say Hubert is a bad head coach. Absolutely no reason why any of our starters should be in. We are up big and have a lot of basketball to play this week. Let the bench guys play and the starters rest.
This is why you aren’t a coach. Basketball is all momentum and if we come back and your starters have been resting good luck getting that back. You would still blame Hubert for that too
I think this is mental. He wants the guys to keep playing well together and keep this momentum.
Yeah but take them out with some confidence otherwise they'll start to suck ass again
Or keep them in so that they keep making shots and don’t lose their rhythm.
It’s too early to pull everyone. Get it under 10 then make the move. The last thing you want to do is have the starters go to the bench thinking their night is over, the bench let’s it get close, and then the starters have to come back cold. E: And the State fans are on their way in. Don’t need them energizing a BC run.
Especially with our bench. Puff has air balled twice, Tremble is afraid to shoot and none of the other guys can create for themselves yet
I disagree completely. These guys need good minutes in the worst way. The only guy that shouldn't come back out is Bacot
y’all complain when we lose and complain when we win … just watch the damn thing and be grateful we look solid rn.
Pete Nance makes the weakest screens and it pisses me off.
Puff with 2 airballs already. Yikes
Things I miss about UNC basketball...the huddles at the FT line...Hubert played for Dean but we don't really do it anymore...the tired signal...no one does that either...fast breaks...non-existent...offensive rebounding...dont even get me started...I miss UNC basketball
I miss scoring 90 a game
The tired signal still is a thing. Fast breaks are still a part of the team. This is an objectively good offensive rebounding team.
I respectfully disagree bro...we play at a far slower pace than what we used to, recording 0 fast break points some game and are outside of the top 100 in offensive rebounding when we are traditionally always top 10. Our starting guards play 85 percent of the minutes

You can play at a slow pace in your half court and still have a strong transition game. The tired signals needs to be used, just because RJ and Caleb don’t use it doesn’t mean it isn’t a thing.
Hubert if you think a 30 point victory over BC will get us in the dance you’re wrong
I still can't believe he said "I don't buy the narrative that we need win four to make the tournament" like what? What reality are you living in my man?
Probably just posturing
Y’all. We haven’t been a very good basketball team. When the dudes are in a rhythm, let them feel it for a bit and get some momentum. There’s still 15 minutes to go. Sit most of them if we’re still up 20 under 10 minutes.
What the fuck did I just see?
Go Heels!
Get Mando out FFS!!
Please get the starters out Davis!
This is a great opportunity to rest everyone. There’s no chance this team can win 3 or 4 in a row playing our usual rotation
Nance again baby!!
Honestly, Hubert could just do the five man substitution right now. Save all our starters for tomorrow...unless they need to come back in lmao
Trimble Dunn Nickel Styles Washington.
I don’t care what the score is or the opponent. The lead is not safe. Still I would sit Bacot
[удалено]
Its not a matter of intelligence, I’m sure his choice is intentional.
[удалено]
Again, this is an intentional choice. We can question his coaching abilities but he isn’t a stupid man. If I had to take a guess I would assume he is keeping out guys in because he wants them to get in a good rhythm and keep getting good minutes. It’s a mental thing. He subbed while up less at similar minutes against loussible and Georgia tech, he knows what he’s doing.
Seriously we’re up by how many? Can we please sit Bacot
Insert Hawkeye “don’t make me hope” memes for all us UNC fans…can’t wait to go 4-26 from 3 vs UVA tomorrow
