1- pure point guard
2- spot up shooter
3- tweener
4- banger
5- throwback center

BN- volume scorer
BN- lockdown defender
BN- glue-guy

we will surely contend for the 'ship

Energy Guy

BN a go-to 6th man spark plug role player specialist that can eat up minutes and play with a lot of heart that's a local homegrown product redshirt 6th year senior transfer walk-on with a chip on his shoulder with a 4.0 GPA b/c he took Afro-American studies for distance education from UNC over the summer

guys, our rotation is getting a bit stretched here

5/23/2012 8:58:10 PM

i feel confident that the staff can land a spark-plug who quickly becomes a glue-guy, thus leaving a scholarship open for a pure goon that regulates when we need it and pushes the team in the weight-room.

5/23/2012 9:24:52 PM

raw talent

5/23/2012 9:28:46 PM

three point specialist

5/23/2012 9:30:12 PM

i dont care so long as we have scrappy, high motor players to bring in if the team gets in a rut.

5/23/2012 10:27:58 PM

I think the glue guy should start over the tweener. Yeah, let's start johnathan Bender over detlef schremph.

5/23/2012 10:39:53 PM

admirable attempt at spelling Schrempf

5/23/2012 10:55:47 PM

ph...really? That's worse than the "38.50 x 2 = 75" shit you posted the other day

Quit stalking me, lest I remind folks how you singlehandedly killed the once promising Redtails thread with the worst outside sales attempt in TWW history

5/23/2012 11:27:26 PM

I know this is usually a Carolina thing, but no one has mentioned a redheaded walkon yet?

5/24/2012 12:10:45 AM

^
Trevor Ferguson's son is eligible.

5/24/2012 12:14:21 AM

Tweeners and bangers have their place in the frontcourt, but we really need a stretch forward who can play down low but also step out and nail the 3 when left open.

Maybe if we could just find some ugly European who is comically slow and can't shoot worth a shit, he can pretend to be our stretch forward for 3 minutes per game.

We're suppposedly a "school of interest" for 10 of the top50 2014 recruits, including the #1:

Thank god we're in the running for Che Bob.

5/24/2012 3:31:28 PM

I don't think Willow has any eligibility left...

5/24/2012 9:09:21 PM

2014? Dude, I'll be dead by then.

5/24/2012 9:35:27 PM

Dammit amile we could have had something. It still hurts

5/25/2012 11:27:33 PM

Too bad almost all of those 2014 guys list UNC and/or Duke also. Great to be the backup. Well show what we're about this year though

5/26/2012 2:02:42 PM

I don't even want to think about how we'll get led on and inevitably end up heart broken by the likes of a #1 recruit.

5/26/2012 2:37:30 PM

He'll commit to Kentucky plenty early enough to not let us get our hopes too high

5/26/2012 2:40:16 PM

we could use a scoring rebounder and/or a scoring paint protector

this guy came up with 13 new positions:

Amile isn't coming here ya'll, quit dwelling on it

(i say this for your own good)

5/27/2012 10:47:31 PM

I'm still holding out hope for mustafa shakur.

5/28/2012 8:22:56 AM

I want Trot Nixon

5/28/2012 8:44:29 AM

THIS IS BASKETBALL YOU IDIOT

5/28/2012 10:11:38 AM

I want Otis Nixon. I don't think he was ever young.

5/28/2012 3:28:54 PM

i'll allow it.

Can we get that kid from Wilmington? Mikael something.

5/28/2012 5:02:29 PM

Sources are saying we lead for Schea Cotton but he may have qualifying issues.

For those holding out hopes of getting Montrezl Harrell, this makes it look unlikely.

5/30/2012 7:30:38 PM

^ yeah it's not happening. No one would just give up a year of eligibility to go to NC State. I don't even see someone doing that to go to UK or UNC or anywhere.

Maybe if it was like a Lee Melchionni type that dreamed lifelong of going to Duke and he wasn't going to play as a freshman anyway...

5/30/2012 7:38:15 PM

but but.... we all go to nc state

Stolen from Packpride:

Quote :

"Andrew Carrillo ? @ JustDrew35 4 star Savon Goodman will visit # UNLV this weekend and # NCStatenext weekend. The plan is to announce his decision in two weeks."

We could really really use this guy next year.

6/1/2012 11:13:55 AM

if he's looking for playing time, UNLV is not the place to go.

6/1/2012 11:18:38 AM

Kennedy Meeks is not going to come here, sorry.

6/1/2012 11:20:40 AM

as long as he doesn't wait until the final day of signing, that's fine

6/1/2012 12:36:30 PM

whatever, we're getting meeks and randle. we have no other choice, and gottfried is not a man who is going to let me down.

we're going to get goodman for the same reason.

[Edited on June 1, 2012 at 1:14 PM. Reason : oh how much better i would feel w/ goodman.]

6/1/2012 1:11:53 PM

6/1/2012 2:03:26 PM

He would play for us next year. Not that difficult.

6/1/2012 2:08:22 PM

I wouldn't say we really need him next year. But we really, really need him the year after.

6/1/2012 2:27:35 PM

One "really" for next year, two "really"s for the year after.

We need depth and skill in the post for next year since Painter left. TDT and Vandy are wildcards as far as production goes.

6/1/2012 2:32:16 PM

surely you don't think that goodman and painter play the same position...
