Not tonight. Man, he wanted to jack up some more threes.
So the bottom line on Joey's redshirt, but not lifting it til tonight? Jury still out. All we can do now is embrace it, and hope that a renewed AOC, and maybe Baker, can make us more dangerous. If Joey drains a few big threes in Chapel Hill, we'll have our answer.
And credit to Goldwire for the L'ville game...he deserves it. But man, if he's in our top 8 going forward? (grit teeth, furrow brow)
