Lauren Harrison is on the portal and from what I have heard she will not be the last.. another possible exodus is coming for the Tar Heels. I am not surprised. I had hear rumblings from some of her former club teammates that she wanted to transfer last year. Would not be surprised if she ends up at UGA. I think she has a sibling there? Brother plays bball there....or did. She is very close to her family. I could see her being homesick combined with the drama and her parents prob wanted her to stay at UNC for the academics. However, she wasn't happy and you cant blame her. She is a pure athlete and I will miss watching her play.... for someone as nice as lauren seems and as good an athlete to leave, esp if she makes ACC 1st team/2nd team, BUBBA HAS TO ACT. UNC should not go from Top 10 to this poor of quality.

OF course, I would love nothing more than for her to change her mind...

End of season meeting between coaches/players should be soon....prior to break, so I think the thread may be busier the next 2 weeks prior to spring semester....
After losing Sophie to decommitting and now Lauren and possibly more, it makes me wonder about th big transfers UNC targeted and how it effects them.
And in other news...Bubba will also be hiring a new fencing coach bc of emotional abuse allegations......

My understanding was that was part of the reason Susan was let go from Wright State was because of her poor interactions with the players. Wright State is doing very well without her. Didn't Joe just sign an extension after last year. I assume to try to show a sign of faith for Joe and turn the ship around.

Joe's extension was on paper last year in September....before it was announced in November I believe....meaning they signed him before last year was a train wreck. I am a big fan of Mike and at this point would love if he and Kiki were retained (if possible).

If I'm not mistaken she had a 3 year deal in 2016 just after the first of many dreadful seasons following the NCAA sanctions controversy. I think Bubba tried to give her the dignity of letting her resign versus firing her this year. I could be wrong though.

Well IDK how but Bubba needs to do something about letting a program digress from Top 10 in the nation to this. Our record is better this year but the last week has bought the turmoil back

I will actually be there for semis and final Although it’s kinda deja vu. Stanford just knocked out psu quarter finals and they will prob win title. Meanwhile over in volleyball Stanford will prob knock psu out in quarter finals essentially and win title there also. Lol

Allegations of emotional abuse, injury negligence and sexual harassment. Wow.

He has to go. This is embarrassing and unacceptable.
I’m more upset he seems to have created a culture that kids clearly do not want to be a part of and is affecting their college experience. It sucks as an alum to think athletes (of all sports) aren’t enjoying their time at UNC and are leaving because of it.
I hope she finds a great place that is better for her. She’s a star.
Assuming more are out the door...

Assuming more are out the door... And prior to Eve and Co leaving two years ago, how many transfers were there? I can't recall any major ones right offhand. Then all of a sudden you have entire recruiting classes evaporating year after year. I'll be extremely disappointed if this continues to go unnoticed by the powers that be.
