Last night's UNC-MSU game was interesting. Even w/o their potentially best player, UNC looks like they'll be a load for us, especially on the Offensive end. They're letting the entire roster get playing time, which can only help them long-term.
They have a really good class coming in next year, probably a preseason top 5 team in 2014. If we don't go as far as we'd like in the Tourney this year, hoping that means Jabari comes back.
With or without Parker, we look REALLY good next year. We will have a senior PG, multiple talented wings, a true center and a 4th-year Plumlee to back him up, and loads of depth and offensive versatility at PF. We'll also be adding the best PG in next year's class, which should give us the opportunity to play multiple guys who can break down the defense and create offense.
Don't get me wrong: I'd LOVE for Parker to stay for a second year. But the future isn't exactly dim without him.
