UNC’s Gimmick Defense

They only won by 15 and didn't cover the spread.

Program is clearly in decline. Can somebody tell me something that should make me think they have a hope of covering in the next game?
 
What makes it a gimmick defense?
 
As long as UNC keeps paying guys to stay 3-4 years and gives out free A's, it won't matter what D Roy plays. He can keep rolling the ball out and win 30 games a year.
 
North Carolina NCAAT seed the last 5 years.
2 seed lost 2nd round
1 seed NC winner
1 seed lost in the NC game
4 seed lost in sweet 16 to 1 seed
6 seed lost to 3 seed in second round.

So because UNC had a bad first half we get this post.
If we win another NC I think a 5 year grace period should be expected within the fanbase.
UNC has been a 1 seed 3 times in the last 5 years.
 
UNC's recent success has been due to players staying for 3-4 years even with earlier opportunities. This year they are going to lose their top 2 freshmen plus 3 seniors. They have a good class coming in and some returning talent but it will be tough for them to repeat their recent success.

UNC has better players, has always had better players, and will always have better players.

It's easier to win with better players, no?
