North Carolina basketball is at the ACC Tipoff media event presented by T. Rowe Price today and the crew analysts start the program with a conversation bringing to the set Carolina guards, RJ Davis and Seth Trimble.
Both Davis and Trimble came out of last year with decisions to make. For Davis, was he going to the NBA Draft or coming back? For Trimble, was he going to another school in the portal or coming back?
This was the first question asked by the ACC Tipoff hosts as soon as Davis and Trimble hit the set.
For Davis, it was a hard decision to make especially after he had success last season. But in the end he returned.
“It was a hard decision to make coming off of a season where I had tremendous success as a player and we had as a team,” Davis said. “That is why I took all the time that was needed, but overall, I had some unfinished business left. My overall goal coming into college was to win a National Championship. I came up short my sophomore year, but also just how my legacy was to be remembered and my impact on this program and my teammates.”
Trimble did enter the portal, he made the decision to return to UNC. And he also pointed to the team having some unfinished business to attend to.
“Going off of what RJ said, I had a lot of unfinished business for myself and I had a lot of goals that I didn’t want to do just anywhere, I wanted to get done at North Carolina,” Trimble said. “That was a big reason why I came back. I took a lot of time like [RJ Davis] did, but I made the right decision in the end.”
There is a lot of potential for this team coming into this season and having the defensive prowess of Trimble back with the shooting and scoring capabilities of RJ Davis is going to make Carolina basketball win this year.
