He's gonna come back next year right. He'll be the only returning starter if so.

Elligton could come back and theres a good chance he does.

Lawson could also come back.

And Ginyard, who would have been a starter, will get another year.

They wont be as good next year, but thet will be very good with a starting lineup of Drew/Strickland, Ellington, Ginyard, Thompson, Davis/Zeller.

i dont think its a definite that lawson and ellington leave early, especially if they dont win the championship. lawson would be more likely to go than ellington, but neither of them are likely to go in the top 20 at this point.

they will also have ginyard back next year i think, and hes started last season instead of green.

Yeah, there front court will be stacked, the only question mark is at the 2/3 if Ellington leaves.

If anyone leaves it will be lawson. I don't think he or Ellington leave unless they win it all. If they win it all, you'll see Thompson probably go as well.

they will be ok next year. Top 3rd of the ACC probably. They have some good freshman playing right now, and they have 2 6-9 twins coming in next year.

Plus Davis will be there as a sophmore. He has played well recently. And the guy who got suspended for the year. I can't remember his name. But he was a 1st or 2nd guy off the bench this year.

I think Lawson will leave. He was very close to leaving last year. On the other hand, Ellington will stay for senior year. He is from an affluent family so he doesn't have to worry about supporting his family like many college basketball stars. Besides, he had a fairly disappointing year, at least by his standards.

I think that with Ginyard, Ellington, and Thompson coming back, UNC is still one of the top 3 teams in the ACC. If Henderson stays, I think Duke will be the best team, but if Henderson goes pro, as do James Johnson and Teague at Wake, UNC might even be the top team in league next year.

Not bad for a so-called down year

UNC doesn't rebuild, they reload. They will be fine next year.

I think Lawson goes for sure. Ellington is a toss up. I hope Ed Davis doesn't pull a Marvin Williams and leave after one year.
