North Carolina Seems Primed for Private Equity. Why Is It Passing?

Bubba Cunningham explains why UNC isn't taking PE cash and envisions a future where major NCAA programs consolidate more of its business operations.

UNC is among many other lower tier schools in the country that are well on their way to selling their souls to the devil(Private Equity) for extra cash because of all this realignment business.
We are truly blessed to have a program rich in tradition and money and to have an AD that is creating new revenue sources to help us when we have to start paying these players directly through revenue sharing.

Yet, people are still complaining about a fuel station logo on our field and high ticket prices when there’s other schools that are quite literally selling their futures down the river.

the major ACC schools are exploring this option because they're locked into a terrible contract for years to come

they're trying every way to sneak out of the contract, and now they're trying to buy out of it

FSU, Clemson, UNC, maybe VaTech. Once one does it they all will.

That’s irrelevant to my question/statement. I was wondering because this staff does a good job of bringing vfl’s in to the program like al wilson, manning, we’ve heard from Tee Martin, etc. but I haven’t heard anything about Jason Witten coming to campus or anything of that nature

A lot of that probably has to do with him now being a HS coach. He has games on Friday nights and just doesn't have the time to get up here since he lives in TX now.

No

Of all the things to be concerned about, this is the #1 (and assuming no injuries.. #2 and #3 imo). idk if we did enough- I certainly wish we had more there. Kamari Ramsey was who we really wanted there but he just followed his DB coach from UCLA to USC.

Overall id give the portal an A/A- for how many guys we hit on but I wish we had another guy at S.

Not early on. Maybe later in the year. Harrison has been a really pleasant surprise. Thomas getting hurt just sucks.

Why couldn’t Christian Harrison play Safety?

I was just talking in general…. I think this staff has done a great job. I also think the safety situation will work out. It’s really just one spot and I think Will Brooks could end up being good. The staff is responsible for every area of the team. Here is an example of a Lady Vols off season workout..

Dont'e Thornton Jr. 6'5" 215lbs
Chris Brazzell II 6'5" 200lbs

Kaleb Webb 6'3" 204lbs
Nathan Leacock 6'3" 217lbs
Chas Nimrod 6'3" 220lbs
Bru McCoy 6'3" 230lbs

Squirrel White 5'10" 167lbs
Mike Matthews 6'1" 197lbs
Braylon Staley 6'0" 190lbs

Absolutely loaded with depth and talent. Also diverse body types and strengths. Not to mention the threats of Holden Staes at 6'4" 248lbs, Miles Kitselman 6'5" 256lbs, and Ethan Davis 6'5" 246lbs. We have guys with length, speed, size, etc. Defensive coordinators should be absolutely sweating.

Most early opponents are probably focused on Squirrel, Bru, and Brazzell with a glance at Mike Matthews. We're going to unleash hell on NC State.

Not sure with us needing a LB and RB still

More needs left than that. But I think we would have taken Petty if he wanted to come. Same way I think we would have taken Juan Gaston. FTR, Gaston is the one I really wanted to pair with Sanders.
