Boone Makes It Official 4/10
The aftershocks of an 8-20 season are still being felt in Chapel Hill, N.C., where basketball coach Matt Doherty is under fire from players, parents and, of course, Tar Heel fans.

In the past two days, one player has left UNC, two players admitted to threatening to leave, and a parent criticized Doherty's style and the atmosphere in Chapel Hill.

The latest barrage began on Wednesday when point guard Adam Boone, the team's leading assist man this past season, confirmed reports and admitted that he was transferring.

Boone is the third player to leave Carolina since the beginning of the 2001-2002 season began. Red-shirt freshman center Neil Fingleton switched to Holy Cross in December 2001 and sophomore guard Brian Morrison announced last month that he will leave when the academic semester ends.

The popular school of thought was that Boone's departure was based in a fear that his playing time will be severely cut next season with prep phenom Raymond Felton of Latta, S.C., coming onboard.

But Boone's father, Louis Boone, told the Greensboro News & Record, that playing time had nothing to do with his son

<blockquote>quote:<hr />2)UNC had more talent than any ACC team this tear except Maryland or Duke. There were 5 McD AA's as well as 3 other top30 ballplayers on the roster this year. The last 5 recruiting years were all in the top 9.
3) Doherty cannot relate to his players. Five players (two McD AA's) either transferred or quit the team this year. <hr /></blockquote>I don't think UNC had as much talent as UVA. But UVA always has a meltdown. 5 McD AA's? Nope. We started the season w/ 4. Jawad, Capel, Lang, and Fingleton. But I don't believe the 2000 recruiting class was in the top 9. I would not count the football players as quiting. Who expected Peppers, a top 3 pick in the NFL draft, to come back and waste his time w/ bball? And if Curry thinks he'll get drafted, he doesn't need to worry about bball either.

<blockquote>quote:<hr />They don't call him DOH for nothing.....

The'll give him 2 years to work with these guys he has brought in. If another 2 years like this past year, he's gone.

Drew, I think most MD fans here want to be as supportive of D'oh! as possible. As far as we're concerned, he can have as long as he wants to work this thing out. 10 years, 20 years, are as nothing compared to the importance of getting the UNC program back on top.

Hey Drew...

george Karl wants out of NBA the Bucks players have quit on him and trust me if he went to Craple Hill today and said he wanted the job. Doh-Boy would be shown the door.

Doh-Boy was like their 4th choice...

I know for a fact that..

Larry Brown and George Karl were ahead of him but they turned it down...

His days are numbered...
