Carter Whitt is Kendall Marshall if he could shoot

Think this is a good assessment of Lecque

How did you guys take it? Can james talk to his dad again?

Director of Basketball Operations Thomas Carr will not return to NC State next season.





Carr helped out with recruiting quite a bit.

There goes the only member of the staff that I knew. Guess I'll have to pay for tickets again

That is dead on. It will be interesting to see his decision.

It's crazy to see all of the stuff coming out about Sean Miller. Wiretaps full of evidence and they have the #2 recruiting class. Kind of disheartening if I'm being honest.

what will be disheartening is if he gets away with it. I'm just surprised they haven't nailed Calipari too.

Dun, do you think that Markell and Carr were really close. It seemed that way by Markell posting on Instagram a video of Carr but I'm not sure. Maybe this move makes Markell completely leave?

Not Dunlow, but they were close.

Really good read on Jalen Cone from his AAU coach


https://irishsportsdaily.com/s/9430/coach-point-guard-jalen-cone-a-dynamic-scorer




"To be 5-9, 5-10 and finish at the rim, not too many can do it at his size like that. He's got multiple 50-point games this year. He's done it over the course of his whole career. He's a dynamic scorer, ballhandler and playmaking general."

It's the combination of Cone's gifts that make him such a lethal scorer, according to Cannon.

"He's so fast that defenses have to respect his speed," Cannon says. "Once they give him a step, his pull-up jumper is about as good as it gets. You don't see too many kids with mid-range games, but he stops on a dime and elevates. Once he hits one or two of those, he's one of the types of kids who can hit eight or nine.

"He has unlimited three-point range. He does it off the bounce, off screens. He's just very skilled and it makes the game very easy for him even with his size.

Another rumor is Shakeel Moore will also reclassify to 2019.


Wouldnt be surprised to see NC State get one, Va Tech get one with the Cone/Moore reclassifications taking place

Who do you like better? I know Cone is the higher rated prospect but Moore's tape looked REALLY good to me, don't know much about him though. Think he will see a jump in ranking like Cone?

Why is Carr leaving? He and KK go way back. He even brought him over from Dub. Maybe Carr is upset that he didn't get the assistant coaching gig last season?

Ideally, we demote Roy and bring in a ace recruiter to the staff. Wyking Jones is out there and has a previous relationship with KK from their L'ville days.

Hell, if Markell and Jalen are gone then maybe its better to go into full player development mode and bring on Cone, Moore, and get your hands on Hall somehow

Not the worst idea in the world but many of our fans are kinda crazy and would run him out of town before that bunch was able to win

It's a shame too. I mean, our program has been mediocre for nearly 30 years. Suck it up one or two more seasons and have a great program off and running.

Everyone wants to be UNC/Duke/UVA but no one wants to endure the losing that Dean went through in the 60s, K went through in the 80s, and what TB went through from 09-13

I think State fans have been patient & loyal enough. Dean might have lost during the 60's, K in the 80's, & Bennett when he first got to UVA, but our program has been loosing & having been relevant in basketball for 3 decades that's them 3 coaches together. How many championships have them programs won & how many has State. We had our own fans turn on our own Coach V who was getting the program back on the right track, then you know the rest of the story. So I think Wolfpack fans have endured enough.

My point is that if you want long term success then you have to be patient the first few seasons as the coach develops his program. Unfortunately, nowadays people start questioning the coach after season 1-2 and not goven the benefit of the doubt. KK should be given 5 seasons before we start questioning if hes the right man for the program.

I agree with that. I really like Keatts & hope he gets the job done & is here for a while.

I know this thread is sometimes a 'catch all' for other topics of discussion that kinda relate to recruiting


but let's try to keep it as close to 'on topic' as possible.







Jalen Cone scheduled to OV to Tennessee on May 10th


I think Moore is OVing to Va Tech soon.

Does Moore have much of a relationship with the new VT staff?

yes

Dunlow are we trying to get Cone back on campus for a visit or has he seen everything he needs to see from us?

Another school pushing for Cam Hayes is Tennessee.




JakeVerified account @jakeweingarten Apr 30

Tennessee just had their entire staff check out five-star sophomore Cam Hayes tonight, a source told @Stockrisers.

I spoke to Hayes days back, he told @Stockrisers that he's strongly considering a move to 2020:

Moore may not be on the board long. Va Tech making its move.

Hoping that unc doesn't get in on hall because he's one like cam Thomas that I really want

---

Hall and Thomas would be outstanding additions.

---

So Hayes-UNC/ Whitt-UVA. Are there any kids you think we'll get? Or are things looking bleak

---

Still a lot of time for that class. Lets see who we get to visit.

---

How do you feel about our chances with Thomas. Are we the leader? Or is he waiting for a blue blood

---

Have not heard a lot either way but he is performing like a kid who will get targetted by the big boys.

---

Latest on Thomas is we are still right at the top of his list.

Would you rather have him or Cone?

Please stop or post elsewhere.

UNC just landed Justin Pierce.

Would not be surprised to see UNC put some pressure on postgrad transfers, Justin Pierce and Christin Keeling now that they have the Cole committ and look solid with Anthony Harris.


Like...'first one to commit gets the spot', kinda pressure.

---

Let's hope they fill up with Pierce and Harris

---

There was a rumor floating that Pierce would be a Tarheel a few weeks ago(even before his OV was scheduled), but I have no idea how good the source was.

---

Note to self....trust this source.
