UNC Tar Heels Champions Again. Now On to 2011

The Tar Heels won it all, Hansbrough’s destiny was fulfilled. Now, on to next season.

GAME TIME: Tar Heels By Four

That’s my call, I’m making it public. Will President Obama be proven correct? (as well as me and the millions of others who picked this talent packed team as pre-season #1 lol)?Too nervous (and well busy) to say anything else. We’ll talk after.

UNC over LSU: The Return of Ty Lawson

I’ve developed a bad habit this NCAA season; I’m not making room in my schedule to watch games. Perhaps its a sign of my advanced age and jammed up schedule but I’ve watched less Tar Heel hoops than ever this year. I missed three quarters of today’s LSU game, all of Radford and the last [...]

UNC Torches Duke with 101 Points.

For about 30 minutes tonight, North Carolina looked like the best team in the nation. For the other 15 they looked like D-1A scrubs. Not having been on one of the school’s many championship sports teams I don’t really know what it’s like to have a substantial lead and lose focus, but I saw, along [...]

UNC loses to Wake Forrest. Not All That Surprising

The ACC is a tough conference and Wake has developed a competitive athletic program over the years since they were an ACC dormat. I didn’t know how good they were this year but I knew they had a pro caliber back court.

Tar Heels win Maui

Well, Hansbrough has answered all questions about his ability to play this season and how he will fare in the draft as well. He’s clearly added dimensions to his game, shown in the drubbing of Notre Dame in the Maui Invitational. He stepped out and hit a three, was more aggressive on defense than I’ve [...]

Tyler Zeller Injury Report

The Raleigh News and Observer’s ACC Now blog quotes Luke Zeller, Tyler’s brother who plays ball at Notre Dame as saying that his younger brother has broken his wrist in two places and will need screws. No word on how long he will be out, but he will miss the Maui Invitational at least. The [...]

Tar Heel Sports Big Saturday

This weekend was one of the biggest in UNC sports since last Spring’s NCAA basketball championship. The football team had a big game against Maryland which would likely seal their spot in the ACC championship game, and the basketball team played their season opener against Penn minus the Player of the Year Tyler Hansbrough but [...]

It is as if God has Endorsed.

Former University of North Carolina basketball coach Dean Smith has endorsed Sen. Obama, announced in an Email to supporters of Obama and John Edwards, whom Smith campaigned for during the Democratic primary.
I don’t know whether this makes a difference in the North Carolina race at this late date, and if it is to make a [...]

UNC Spokesman says Roy Didn’t Endorse Obama

Of course he didn’t. Wink. A UNC basketball rep described the statement Williams made calling Obama “the next President of the United States” as “playful.” Of course Williams could have refused the Obama campaign’s request to have Obama on court. No, instead, he offered Obama some great free media in a state that loves basketball [...]
