Hunter knows we are setup for a rough season so he knows engagement will likely fall off - which isnāt good for getting hired to cover us for a freelance writer.
Folks, if you enjoy Hunterās coverage, please click on his Observer stories and share them on social media.
Iām biased - I enjoy his stuff. Trying to appeal to any of you who agree. Iād like to keep him around.
Charlotte should try to break the record for the most turnover of players from one season to another
Here is the deal as I see it. We can either embrace the suck or we can start giving $$$ towards NIL. We may not like it but it is what it is. There is a huge push to bring in 5 million so we can compete. I didnāt think I would be willing to do it but I am going to break down and give to this endeavor. I want to see if we can turn this shit around.
So it is put up time. Letās do this. Any amount will help. I am in for $449.

Charlotte has won just three home games against FBS competition since 2022. Today will not be the fourth.
Holy shit. That canāt be right, can it?
In 4 seasons.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
I like the coverage but the last couple days you can tell Hunter is a bit jaded by Hillās firing. He had too much of a personal relationship to look at things objectively. Just look at the tone of his tweets.
Iām annoyed that they took away my basketball pregame hospitality pass for my daughter and told me I have to pay $650 for her to eat a couple cookies. Now theyāre going to come ask for another $449? They need to figure their shit out. Itās not a bottomless well.
He was pretty jaded after our last couple of blowout losses too. Though I am sure that didnāt help.
Everyone here keeps talking about the NIL stuff but I really donāt think it matters as much as yāall say. The team has always been bad and has continued to be bad and projects to continue to be bad.
The campus is nice, the facilities are nice, the academics are nice, and many of the players still receive full-ride scholarships.
Weād lose crazy good players to NIL but we donāt have any crazy good players. There are schools with less NIL that perform better. Itās really not the NIL guys.
I havenāt known this school to be good at athletics forever now. I had to convince my entire family we were D1 for years after I started going here. Many people in Charlotte donāt know that we are. Thereās just an inherent problem I think and I donāt know where. We have so much more history as a basketball program but havenāt done anything with it for almost the length of my life now.
In general he is always a bit naive in his coverage, does a really good job and is passionate & cares.
He felt like Biff was Bear Bryant is one example and would believe every thing he said.
Recently when season started he re-iterated he thought Hill was in good shape/standing because he had made the well received hire of Albin.
Heās pissed no one reads his crap, especially when itās crap about OUR crap. Heās admitted as much already.
Well, if what youāre writing about is crap, then it is what it is. ![]()
clt says that tweet is really hard to read he needs to learn proper punctuation
