Message: [QUOTE="nccusefan, post: 5740044, member: 846"] We didn’t get top third results but most preseason experts I saw had Cuse as the 5th or 6th best roster which is top third. Preseason JJ was 2nd team All ACC and former All Freshman Team. Donnie Freeman ended up All ACC Honorable Mention for 2026. Naithan George was All ACC Honorable Mention for 2025. Anthony and White were both top 35 recruits. I would argue Kings was our best player and Kyle exceeded most expectations. Our top 3 players didn’t live up to expectations. Were they overrated? Did the pieces not fit? Were they in the wrong system? Were we out-coached? Did players give up after the BC disaster? You could argue any of those but one thing I think everyone would agree with is the whole didn’t equal the sum of the parts and we underachieved as a team. [/QUOTE]
