Is Shannon supposed to be good?

You realize we played Texas Tech just a few weeks ago, right?

He dunked on Bates Jones. That tells you all you need to know.

 

[DrKlahn]

At what point does the NCAA’s four year eligibility rule come under attack for denying players the right to keep earning sweet NIL cash? Someone like Manek is being forced into a less profitable job. How is that fair?

 

[DurhamSon]

Those March/April numbers are nuts. He made more 3s in that span than Joey Baker did the entire season, and with a better percentage. All the other transfers they brought in were busts but this made up for it by far. Where's this coming from next year?

Uh ya. Don't remember him.

Changes the whole opposing defense when you have to face guard an opposing four 25 feet from the basket and can’t help off.

Strong and athletic, decent attacking the basket. I cannot remember anything about his shooting, and I'm too lazy to open another browser window to research.

Manek. Bilas will make it happen.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

This is a gutsy and admirable decision. He must absolutely love UNC.

 

[deeyoukayeee]

COVID fucked us pretty hard relative to UNC - good team in 2020 vs. their trash, 2021 all discombobulated, Manek, Leaky and probably Bacon in 2023-4.

That said, if the roster remains full, much prefer Leaky over Shannon, who is basically a much more athletic Leaky who can shoot really well.

 

[Devilsforlife]

That extra COVID year of eligibility that never should have happened is really annoying. All we got out of it was Theo fucking John.

and a fifth year of joey baker

Would've had this anyways if K didn't burn his redshirt for 18 total minutes of game time.

 

[CK86]

Every single year these assholes somehow bring back their whole fucking team.

 

[aiw]

RJ Davis officially back

 

[DurhamSon]

They've been whipping our asses wrt roster management the year+ since NIL has installed despite seemingly no change in their program's brand deterioration the last ten years

 

[DurhamSon]

In a year+ of NIL and instant transfers, UNC has brought in Manek while retaining the services of Bacot, Davis, and Love for possibly a second extra year

Duke retained Mark Williams for 1 extra year, and brought in Theo John.


That's an unacceptable asymmetry.

 

[StopThePumpFakesShav]

Love is coming back. There is no question per IC.

 

[Devilsforlife]

Infuriating. They are running it back just like they did after their 2016 title game loss.

 

[aiw]

I'm just gonna go with they had a shit ton of luck in the tournament and Manek isn't coming back.
