    according to Inside Carolina.

    Heck of a player but you have to think either Curry has been run off or Manuel will transfer. UNC doesn't have the scholies and has more glaring needs than would necessitate taking a player so similar to Curry. Roy might also have knowledge that McCants will definately leave after this year.

    I have no problem with Manuel - as long as he is not put into a position where he is expected to catch teh ball.

    manuel is TERRIBLE. Roy needs to chain him and byron sanders to the bench and throw away the key.

    btw, has anyone besides me seen the video clips of glenn davis, the #1 center in the class of 04? they guy is unreal. he is like 340 pounds, but moves like a small forward. he has great hands for someone the size of an ice cream truck. he would be awesome to have batling down low for the heels

    340 pounds and moves like a small forward? That's either a lie or he's going straight to the NBA.

    well it sure as hell isnt a lie, so i guess he's headed to the league after his sr year. i have seen videp clips of him, he is UNREAL. he will absolutely dominate at the college level if he doesnt go pro first

    Forget JR's position. The guy can freak'n bring it. Sure they needed a PG or C more but getting another Vince Carter type that can fill it up from downtown is fine with me.

    The highlight reels will be rolling with this dude on the court. :D

    Also, I still think that JamesOn can play some point for us. He is playing point right now and can fill it up from all over the court. Getting Marvin Williams, JR Smith and JamesOn Curry is special. I don't give a damn where they play!!

    True, but will are still very thin up front. We are on player from injury or fouling out to not having anybody who can really provide us anything down low. Now I know you don't have to have a center in todays game to be very successful, but you still need that really strong PF to play that spot that can give you the advantages of what you are losing. A kid that is 6'9" and 215 lbs just isn't going to cut it.

    I'm not very worried because you know worse case you have Grant and Sanders to play some minutes there. Sure, I'd like a bigtime player there, but I really think JR Smith is gonna make everyone forget about that. Losing a talent like him would have sucked - especially when he wanted us so much too.

    He is a sick player. Screw Brian Johnson. He screwed around and lost his ticket here.
