Sheed is one of my FAVORITE all-time players!! It would have been GREAT to see him play under the late, GREAT LEGENDARY Coach Thompson!!

@zoo05zoo says:

North Carolina was the best option. Temple is right in the middle of North Philly and would have been too much of a distraction for Sheed. Also, they were in the Atlantic 10 and you can't compare that to him going to the Tarheels in the ACC and competing against Duke, Wake Forest and Georgia Tech. Villanova may have been an interesting choice because they would have had Sheed, Jason Lawson, Alvin Williams and Kerry Kittles. That certainly was a championship level team. But I think overall, he wanted to get out of the city which was the right call. Also, a good percentage of the UNC guys, particularly from the Dean Smith era had decent to great careers (both during their careers and after), were mature and didn't really have too much life drama. He wouldn't have gotten that network and support at Temple or Villanova.

How is he going to call one of the greatest college coaches "sassy" no respect, just because he did not cuss, wow

@notoriousj_ says:

Alvin Williams Raptors legend!

@bobbytatum84 says:

Sheed and Stackhouse made me fall in love with UNC. The '95 triple overtime game at Duke.

@johnwade7963 says:

Wait……we could have gotten a year of Iverson and Sheed at Georgetown. That would have been something

@johngraves9720 says:

If he went to temple university they would have won a national champion: Jones, mckie, Brunson and Wallace.

@robertchandler7733 says:

Imma ask Tennis Lee Young who fault it was.

@thatniggaghost4218 says:

Sheed at Georgetown would've been dope

@joshuawoodard6998 says:

Rasheed, Webber, KG, Dirk, Duncan all hall of famers… What's the hold up Springfield?!
