Good for Carolina to turn the page on this nightmare of a season. I can’t imagine how playing in the NIT would be a net positive for the players in this drama. Yes — see your commitments through. They did. The NIT is an invitational, not a commitment, and these young men don’t want to be invited anywhere together.
I am old enough now that I not only respect players like Bacot and Davis — I sympathize with them. In fact, I would almost say that I wish they would both return so that they could salvage some face, but I don’t ever want to see them celebrating in Cameron again and if both of those guys come back and they do a bit better in the portal, I would be very worried about exactly that happening.
