Look I am just a college basketball fan. And if anyone tells me that this was a good win for the Tar Heels than you are just homers. There are 68 slots in the tournament and 20 come from conferences that only one team is coming from. That means 48 teams or 12 seeds will be picked. And the Tar Heels do not have the quad 1 win to qualify. I mean they have 7 cupcake opponents in the beginning of the year. Duke actually has 1 more than them. But the biggest win the Tar Heels is against Michigan and Michigan is fast becoming a non factor win. So how in Gods name can you put them in this field. Joe “The Clown” Lunardi is a puppet for ESPN. If the Tar Heels have any chance in my book to make this tournament you got to beat Duke. It’s as simple as that.
Focus on the DEFENSE guys!!!!
The ceiling is the roof.go.tarheels.
The Heels play the best game of the year. Brady Manek has to be the best transfer in college basketball. He the Heels MVP hands down. The Heels spoil coach K retirement party on Saturday. The Heels will be playing with house money. I have gave Leaky Black the business for half of the year but he has came on like an gangbuster of late. He has a chance to come back an should do so. On to the Bull City. Go Heels!
How in Gods name Joe The Clown Lunardi have North Carolina on his in teams in the tournament. Is this guy a puppet for ESPN.
For me this win is not a win but a loss since it was at home. And to a terrible team.
