Even though he is a high-rated prospect......he is extremely underrated. People don't understand how good this guy is. McAdoo would be a starter on almost every other college basketball team in America. This guy would be a star on most of those teams to. Looking forward to the future of UNC
UNC wins the 2012 national championship him & barnes will tear it up cause barnes didn't live to far from me & seen him play hes a phenom were definally getting another one of those blue chipper type of like player i have time for this kid
3 weeks ago @dmun5587red123 I wasn't aware Duke, an institution, is capable of being "smart."
Hey redneck, do your homework and go look up school information first before you spout your tarhole idiocy. Jack a*s know nothing. You are typical tarhole material, all mouth and no brains. Durrrr Duke not smart durrrr.
Ignorant simian, go play in your trailer park you unevolved TARHOLE.
tarholes suck. I hope this kids likes the NIT because he's going there. He and Barn boy are a joke, they'll get all they can handle when the mighty Blue Devils come to town. They'll probably suffer another 32 point beat down like last season. Poor tarhole fans, thinking that this average player 'gonna take us back to the final four', lmao. Stupid morons.
@TarholeTerrorizer Man I bet you feel like a moron right now for making that comment about Mac going to the NIT. Carolina preaseason #1. And you know that we were preseason #1 in 2005 and 2009 right? And what happened? We won the natl title bitch. Barnes, Henson, Zeller, Marshall, Strickland, Bullock, Hairston, McAdoo, McDonald (Seems like the list just keeps going on and on doesn't it?) are going to shit all over Duke's players including that overrated piece of shit Austin Rivers.
@uncisadynasty Yes, everyone, go goodle it! Just like he says. This moron cannot even write a complete sentence. Ever hear of spell check? Of course not.
Boys basketball: Norfolk Christian junior shining - This is an article title from the Virginian Pilot dated 03/03/10 where it states that Ronnie and Bob are cousins. The Virginian Pilot is the local newspaper in Norfolk, Virginia where James is playing.
This MrKwuanlee is wrong. You can view NC Observer, ESPN, USAToday or College basketball recruiting insider....all state that James mcAdoo is Bob's NEPHEW. This guys keep telling me to call ODU and ask...lol....shut up! Facts are facts, google it and look it up, he is the nephew of Bob McAdoo. geeeeze!
@uncisadynasty All of those sources are incorrect. James does call him "Uncle Bob," but technically he is not his uncle. When Ronnie, James' father, was at Old Dominion, it was a well known fact that he was Bob's cousin. All this confusion stems from the fact that James refers to him as Uncle Bob. I have met Ronnie, I grew up in Norfolk while Ronnie played at ODU, and I was recruited by them. I suggest you shut up and get your facts straight. I have even given you 2 articles stating this fact.
@MrKwuanlee Also, I call you a liar, seeing as earlier you stated that you were "recruited by ODU while Ron played there". Then you "Played with him un the summer" Now you "grew up there WHILE Ron played ball there & you were recruited by them". lol......what di you ask him one day at a pick up game if he was Bob McAdoo's cousin or brother...... Your a liar and an idiot.
@uncisadynasty At this point, I really do not care what you call me. You do not know me nor know what I have done. The one thing I do know is that you cannot even write a coherent sentence, but yet you try to say that you are a journalist. You can call me anything you want to, but the truth will come out once he is at UNC.
@uncisadynasty Still have not heard back from you about who is "a liar and and an idiot" now. Have you looked at the UNC website which states that Bob and Ronnie McAdoo are cousins? You are a coward!
@MrKwuanlee No it isnt. Especially since SI is infamous for having to "fix" their information that is wrong. I gave you USA Today....Espn......college basketball insider and NC Observer. So yes, your facts still are weak. I do like your "Uncle Bob" theory. Very creative, lol.
@uncisadynasty It is funny how Sports Illustrated is now incorrect, but ESPN has never been incorrect. You really are an idiot. I am not the one with the weak facts. I refuse to continue to argue with a fool.
No "you're" wrong. Please read the Sports Illustrated Inside College Basketball article which came out yesterday (06/03/10) by Luke Winn. The reporter correctly identifies James' father as Ronnie, and he goes on to say that Ronnie is Bob's cousin.
RepPhilly215 is just mad that Dook gets nothing but Zoubek's and other mostly irrelevant interior players in the last 6-8 years and never gets big guys like this. By the way also just came across that he may enroll next year. they say its about a 75 percent chance he does even though he may redshirt. So you might get to find out how not soft he really is next year.
Quincy Miller is much more flashy and probablly translates as a small forward in the long run a little better but James has the consistency and physical strength and frame to be a better player in my opinion. Hell they both maybe small forwards at the nba level.
I am not mistaken. His father, Ronnie McAdoo is Bob McAdoo's cousin. James does call Bob his uncle, but he is not. I talked to a news reporter recently who had also mistakenly said that Bob was his uncle, because he had heard James call him Uncle Bob. The reporter then corrected the mistake in a later article.
Notice that no one dares take a charge on him when he's heading to the basket!...It'd be like standing on the railroad track while the freight train is comin'.
@tvg2345 No problem. I used to play with him in a college summer league many moons ago. We also used to play in the field house late on summer nights with Mark West and a lot of guys in the area who were home from college on summer break.
@MrKwuanlee Your wrong, he IS the nephew of james McAdoo.
Totaling over 18,000 points, 8,000 rebounds, and 1,000 blocks in an NBA Hall of Fame career, Bob McAdoo is widely regarded as one of the best players to ever step foot on the hardwood. Following in his footsteps is his nephew, James McAdoo...this is aan espn piece. Its all over the interenet jsut od research.
@MrKwuanlee No im not wrong. Im glad you have accepted the answer from one source. Look at ESPN insider, espn, ncaa basketball fanhouse, or you can just good McAdoo and view about 55 other sites that have information on there, his father is the brother of bob mcAdoo. Sports journalsim is kinda my "gig" lol, so I really encourage you to look around.
@uncisadynasty First, I am not sure what "journalsim" is. If I were you, I would learn how to spell before I worried about getting the facts straight. Second, I am not accepting the view of one source. I have personally spoken with Ronnie McAdoo. I was recruited by ODU when he played for them. Also, I have 2 reporters who have reported the facts correctly.
@uncisadynasty Why don't you call the ODU Athletic office and ask them what Ronnie's relation is to Bob? I am sure they would be happy to tell you. Ronnie was an Honorable Mention All American; therefore, I am sure they remember him. I think you need a new "gig." I would actually encourage you to look around. Maybe you should try to learn how to spell.
@uncisadynasty In addition, try reading the Charlotte Observer article dated 06/04/10 by Scott Fowler entitled "Scott Says" where he correctly identifies the relation between the McAdoos.
@MrKwuanlee lol, major typo there on my behalf. Very witty of you with the "you should look around" phrase. The best part is number one Im sure you have not spoken to Ronnie, second is you want me to refer to the Charlotte Observor reporter...lmao! Listen man, I live in Charlotte, and I assure you that the reporter you speak of is a smidge lower in the food chain than reporter for major networks such as ESPN, USA TOday or even Basketball Recruit Insider.
@uncisadynasty How do you know if I have spoken to Ronnie or not? I met him at Old Dominion and played with him at the Old Dominion Field House during the summer. I know Oliver Purnell who used to be an assistant coach at Old Dominion and now is the head coach at Depaul. As far as the Charlotte Observer reporter goes, I do not care where he is in the food chain, he is correct. Like I said, try calling the Old Dominion Athletic Office. When Ronnie was in school there, it was a well known fact.
@MrKwuanlee You can check with ODU if you like, I dont think that they would be able to tell me that James is his nephew seeing as they dont keep tabs on their former players, however YOU can call UNC's athletic department. Your arguements are weak. Show me where else you see this from. I have actually tried to find proof of what you say but cant, honestly!
@uncisadynasty I did give you proof in two articles in the last two days. As far as Old Dominion keeping tabs, Ronnie lives in Norfolk. Old Dominion is in Norfolk. You don't think that James has been recruited by them. James' mother is Janet Davis who also is a former Old Dominon player. I grew up 2 blocks from the school that James plays for. My Mother still lives there. There are even articles regarding James going to ODU. My arguments are hardly weak.
@MrKwuanlee Lol, ok and I know both Ronnie and janet played at ODU...and his sister Kelsey is a junior at UNCCharlotte and plays for them...and Ronnie (who is originally from Mebane, NC) says that UVA and Duke were the other 2 schools James considered...I know al of that. Try reading the NC Observer. It only calls Bob McAdoo he (James') uncle about 5 or 6 times. You gave me two articles (one from a half ass reporter for Char Observ.). Thats WEAK.....I have given you espn, usatoday & NC Observor.
@MrKwuanlee Why dont you research a bit more and debunk my "myth". Show me some evidence other than the two places you gave me (which could have been in error). Your argument is weak and dont act like your the only person on this Earth who may know people or their families. You keep sayin call ODU, shut up! I went to the 100th year Anv for UNC, guess who they connected James to when they announced the incoming classes...his UNCLE Bob...guess the PR ppl at UNC should call ODU too right?!?!
@realdealcsm3 to bad hes playing for roy williams he will have to play behind someone hes better thanlike marshall sits behind drew2 terrible coaching at unc lately
being a duke fan you understand flops don't you. Greg Paulus Josh Mcroberts,Nolan Smith Gerald Henderson etc...being in the area when they were coming into Duke, I remember the hype they received
@tarheelmtl actually Nolan is doing really well, and G is in the NBA. BTW, you are doing yourself a disservice mentioning Paulus because UNC wanted him, badly. McRoberts was also recruited heavily by UNC.
If your talking about McRoberts and Paulus yes you are right, though McRoberts had good freshman numbers and was second team all ACC his sophmore year he still did not live up to the hype but then again Henson's numbers aren't even half of what Josh's freshman numbers and they were both the number 1 PF coming out of highschool so what's your point. Also Henderson and Nolan have done better than they were hyped. Hendo became a lottery and Nolan is averaging 18 a game this year.
being a UNC fan I don't see how you can complain about flopping Hansbrough was one of the biggest floppers I've seen in awhile. And what is your point on all those players? Paulus doesn't have the tools, McRoberts left prematurely, Henderson is a pro and was actually ranked lower than Lawson and Ellington coming out of highschool yet got drafted higher, and Nolan was only a 4 star recruit yet he may be first team all ACC this year. So what is your point again
Oh my goodness..Thanks Roy. Just another thing to look forward to. I can't say the same for Duke. There not looking forward to it. (Reggie Bullock,Harrison Barnes,And James McAdoo)
Too much man too much. Them Heels baby. We all know there is flops sometimes though. I don't think Harrison Barnes is a flop or Mcadoo. Come to think of though, the only flop I remember that we recruited was J.R. Reid. Even so he was not that bad. So look out Kentucky,Kansas Duke. Ya'll might go farther this year but after that your going nowhere!!! I said nowhere
JM looks real sweet and seems to be bulking up. Great hands and the 2-hand fundamental on his way to the basket. This guy is a game-changer and play-maker. No doubt about it. Uncle Roy will mold him into a brutal competitor by his sophomore year.
UNC isnt is regrouping they r reloading. duke hasnt won in like 3 years. dont forget we have ed davis down low who did amazing off the bench last year. we have john henson coming in who is #7 in the country and ginyard is coming back
All you dookies need to accept that 2nd in the ACC is the best you can do going forward. Good ole Roy is just picking and choosing and its like he is playing a video game at this point. Welcome to Chapel Hill Mr. Mcadoo.
Yo, McAdoo you gotta Go Blue. In JB's system just think of what you could do.
Be apart of a new beginning. A grand chapter in the history of the aMaize and Blue. Check those facility's on the way?
For real now, McAdoo. Your game and physical attributes replicate DeShawn Simms' game after tree years.Quantify that too your present ability, JB's coaching,progression, value in A2 vs playing at UNC....
or he could go to unc law school and become a da, then do the exact opposite of everything he was taught to do in ethics class and create an illegal phoney, racially motivated rape case to help him get re-elected in a majority black city, have that blow up in his face, do time in jail and get disbarred and become the single most ridiculed lawyer in the world, all while discrediting a supposedly good law program for all time; or he could impregnate a slut while is wife went thru cancer treatment
or um...be born a faggot and go to unc to major in homosexual studies then catch AIDS and ebola from maktar ndjaie and get a job as a crooked personal injury lawyer all the while obsessing over the best university in the state.
Im sure he is smart enough to pick Carolina over Duke.
Duke turns their back on student athletes when they have problems or get into trouble. Ever since the Lacrosse incident, the whole athletic dept at Duke has been going down the drain.
@dmun5587red123 I wasn't aware Duke, an institution, is capable of being "smart." Intelligence cracks don't work out well when you can't deliver them correctly. Duke fans bringing up academics in a basketball discussion as if Duke is the only good school with a good basketball team in the country - shocking.
@TarholeTerrorizer hmmmmm...whos won 5 national titles and whos won 4. and 2 in the last 5 years. whos won 6 out of the last 9 meetings. whos produced 3 times as many succesful pro players. CAROLINA. so get ur facts straight before u go talking about a program that craps on dooks all day.
forget college go straight to the D league or be like brandon and go over seas lol im just kidding but you keep on doing you. you still cant beat me though, factssss
I know James personally and he is a great kid, wherever he goes that team will be highly successful (I also remember several of the games these highlights were from, lol)
all you duke fans on the board, you just are delusional. As of now, UNC is the leader and Roy is expected to offer after this school year. The only other school that could sneak in and grab him is Florida. He is coming to many UNC games, though, and plays with other UNC recruits over summer. He is a relatively heavy carolina lean at this point
it spell D-U-K-E cool guy is that the joke dook? ok for those baby blue boys how about THE NORTH FAGG-A-LINA TARQUEER!! U dont like that do u?? LOL HAHA Past that on BABY!!
hes going to duke, hes the ONLY school hes even considering, duke has him hands down so chill all u unc fans it doesnt matter where family goes, look at henderson another bluedevil, dad went to villanova, almost all of singlers family went to oregon and he chose duke so stop using family as an option
Hahaha! What delusional dookie told you that! He's Bob McAdoo's nephew, thats the same Bob McAdoo that was an all-american at UNC. Everyone (even well informed dookies) know that he's UNC's!
You might have seen him on the sidelines of the UNC/dook game in Chapel Hill this year sitting behind the Carolina bench. He plays in the summer with Kendall Marshall and Reggie Bullock (both UNC commits). I just want to know how you got the idea he was going to dook?
linker this is my first look at this kid and despite the fact of me being a huge Duke fan. I will say from what I've read this and from what I say this kid has UNC written all over him. But that's fine you can have him and we will take Barnes... agreed?? Plus I think Mason and/or Ryan will be both great PF's by then.. well knowing K Mason will probably play C most or his career, which I guess is fine he played that in highschool alot.
also another serious question I haven't really watched the Wears play any except the burger boys classic so would you as an unbiased fan which two would you rather have, the Wears or Plumlee/Kelly?
For UNC, the Wears are a better fit because with an already loaded frontcourt they have the skill level (although maybe not the athleticism) to step out and play small forward. For dook, the Plumlee's are a much better fit since they are more true post players that will help a lot on the boards.
I meant more of Mason and Kelly being the package vs package not both the Plumlees. I know Singler played the 3 in highschool but with our lack of guards I think he will be playing the 3 this year. So two questions do you think Singler will play the 3? And if Singler can do it don't you think the Wears can? Just asking cause damn you guys are stacked at the with post players so much that I hear Henson will be playing the 3.
Singler will have to play the 3 so that Schreyer, Nolan, and EWill won't have to play 40 minutes a game. I see Kelly picking up a lot of minutes later in the season at the 3 too. Offensively, the Wears can play the 3, but the problem would be defensively against highly athletic 3 guards. Henson can get away with playing off of them because of his freakish length, but I'm not sure the Wears can. Bottom line is, they won't see much time this year.
agree with this 100% and just between me and you I hope Kelly never has to play the 3, I know alot of Duke fans are drooling at the idea but I watched him play the 3 I wasn't impressed. Not only that how many 6"10 3's are there. Bottom line he looks more like a 4 to me and unless he plays like Hedo Turkoglu he should not play the 3 in my opinion. Now Henson at the 3 is a different story the dude is an athlete
Be your own man and do your own thing. The most important thing is the relationship with your coach and early playing time. You can start from day 1 at Florida. If you have a good relationship with coach Donovan, and you trust that he will develop your game, it is a no-brainer. The fact that the best PG in the 2011 class is also a Gator should not be forgotten either.
Even though he is a high-rated prospect......he is extremely underrated. People don't understand how good this guy is. McAdoo would be a starter on almost every other college basketball team in America. This guy would be a star on most of those teams to. Looking forward to the future of UNC

I know Oliver Purnell who used to be an assistant coach at Old Dominion and now is the head coach at Depaul. As far as the Charlotte Observer reporter goes, I do not care where he is in the food chain, he is correct. Like I said, try calling the Old Dominion Athletic Office. When Ronnie was in school there, it was a well known fact.

@MrKwuanlee You can check with ODU if you like, I dont think that they would be able to tell me that James is his nephew seeing as they dont keep tabs on their former players, however YOU can call UNC's athletic department. Your arguements are weak. Show me where else you see this from. I have actually tried to find proof of what you say but cant, honestly!
uncisadynasty 1 year ago
@uncisadynasty I did give you proof in two articles in the last two days. As far as Old Dominion keeping tabs, Ronnie lives in Norfolk. Old Dominion is in Norfolk. You don't think that James has been recruited by them. James' mother is Janet Davis who also is a former Old Dominon player. I grew up 2 blocks from the school that James plays for. My Mother still lives there. There are even articles regarding James going to ODU. My arguments are hardly weak.
MrKwuanlee 1 year ago
@MrKwuanlee Lol, ok and I know both Ronnie and janet played at ODU...and his sister Kelsey is a junior at UNCCharlotte and plays for them...and Ronnie (who is originally from Mebane, NC) says that UVA and Duke were the other 2 schools James considered...I know al of that. Try reading the NC Observer. It only calls Bob McAdoo he (James') uncle about 5 or 6 times. You gave me two articles (one from a half ass reporter for Char Observ.). Thats WEAK.....I have given you espn, usatoday & NC Observor.

@MrKwuanlee Why dont you research a bit more and debunk my "myth". Show me some evidence other than the two places you gave me (which could have been in error). Your argument is weak and dont act like your the only person on this Earth who may know people or their families. You keep sayin call ODU, shut up! I went to the 100th year Anv for UNC, guess who they connected James to when they announced the incoming classes...his UNCLE Bob...guess the PR ppl at UNC should call ODU too right?!?!

tarheelmtl 1 year ago 2
@tarheelmtl actually Nolan is doing really well, and G is in the NBA. BTW, you are doing yourself a disservice mentioning Paulus because UNC wanted him, badly. McRoberts was also recruited heavily by UNC.
scopapa33 1 year ago
None of them lived up to the hype they received. Whether they were recruited by Roy or not.
tarheelmtl 1 year ago
If your talking about McRoberts and Paulus yes you are right, though McRoberts had good freshman numbers and was second team all ACC his sophmore year he still did not live up to the hype but then again Henson's numbers aren't even half of what Josh's freshman numbers and they were both the number 1 PF coming out of highschool so what's your point. Also Henderson and Nolan have done better than they were hyped. Hendo became a lottery and Nolan is averaging 18 a game this year.
zakmi11 1 year ago
being a UNC fan I don't see how you can complain about flopping Hansbrough was one of the biggest floppers I've seen in awhile. And what is your point on all those players? Paulus doesn't have the tools, McRoberts left prematurely, Henderson is a pro and was actually ranked lower than Lawson and Ellington coming out of highschool yet got drafted higher, and Nolan was only a 4 star recruit yet he may be first team all ACC this year. So what is your point again

Ya'll might go farther this year but after that your going nowhere!!! I said nowhere

Yo, McAdoo you gotta Go Blue. In JB's system just think of what you could do.
Be apart of a new beginning. A grand chapter in the history of the aMaize and Blue. Check those facility's on the way?
For real now, McAdoo. Your game and physical attributes replicate DeShawn Simms' game after tree years.Quantify that too your present ability, JB's coaching,progression, value in A2 vs playing at UNC....
2 years maybe 3 it'll be a lottery, IMO.
Consider that, keep grindin', God bless.

The only other school that could sneak in and grab him is Florida. He is coming to many UNC games, though, and plays with other UNC recruits over summer. He is a relatively heavy carolina lean at this point

linker17839 2 years ago 3
You might have seen him on the sidelines of the UNC/dook game in Chapel Hill this year sitting behind the Carolina bench. He plays in the summer with Kendall Marshall and Reggie Bullock (both UNC commits). I just want to know how you got the idea he was going to dook?
linker17839 2 years ago 3
linker this is my first look at this kid and despite the fact of me being a huge Duke fan. I will say from what I've read this and from what I say this kid has UNC written all over him. But that's fine you can have him and we will take Barnes... agreed?? Plus I think Mason and/or Ryan will be both great PF's by then.. well knowing K Mason will probably play C most or his career, which I guess is fine he played that in highschool alot.
zakmi11 2 years ago
also another serious question I haven't really watched the Wears play any except the burger boys classic so would you as an unbiased fan which two would you rather have, the Wears or Plumlee/Kelly?
zakmi11 2 years ago
For UNC, the Wears are a better fit because with an already loaded frontcourt they have the skill level (although maybe not the athleticism) to step out and play small forward. For dook, the Plumlee's are a much better fit since they are more true post players that will help a lot on the boards.
linker17839 2 years ago
I meant more of Mason and Kelly being the package vs package not both the Plumlees. I know Singler played the 3 in highschool but with our lack of guards I think he will be playing the 3 this year. So two questions do you think Singler will play the 3? And if Singler can do it don't you think the Wears can? Just asking cause damn you guys are stacked at the with post players so much that I hear Henson will be playing the 3.
zakmi11 2 years ago
Singler will have to play the 3 so that Schreyer, Nolan, and EWill won't have to play 40 minutes a game. I see Kelly picking up a lot of minutes later in the season at the 3 too. Offensively, the Wears can play the 3, but the problem would be defensively against highly athletic 3 guards. Henson can get away with playing off of them because of his freakish length, but I'm not sure the Wears can. Bottom line is, they won't see much time this year.
linker17839 2 years ago
agree with this 100% and just between me and you I hope Kelly never has to play the 3, I know alot of Duke fans are drooling at the idea but I watched him play the 3 I wasn't impressed. Not only that how many 6"10 3's are there. Bottom line he looks more like a 4 to me and unless he plays like Hedo Turkoglu he should not play the 3 in my opinion. Now Henson at the 3 is a different story the dude is an athlete

Be your own man and do your own thing. The most important thing is the relationship with your coach and early playing time. You can start from day 1 at Florida. If you have a good relationship with coach Donovan, and you trust that he will develop your game, it is a no-brainer. The fact that the best PG in the 2011 class is also a Gator should not be forgotten either.
