North Carolina opened the season tonight against Isiah Thomas’s Florida International squad. Here are my thoughts from watching the game:
Way too many careless turnovers by UNC. Dexter Strickland had five in 11 minutes of play. The good news: Larry Drew only had two.
Speaking of Larry ...

tarheelfanblog.com 28 days ago — Imagine that in this world of instant internet.
The observations were apparently made during the Roy Williams Coaches Clinic which included an opportunity for attendees to watch UNC practice on October 23rd. Details first popped up on the Inside Carolina premium board last week and now an ...

UNC 88 FIU 72
tarheelfanblog.com 22 days ago — Yeah, that went about like we thought it would.
And yes, 26 turnovers is a horrifically high number, especially since UNC was playing a clearly inferior team which basically means the wounds were largely self inflicted. 22 of the turnovers came ...
2009-10 Basketball Preview
tarheelfanblog.com 23 days ago — Tell me if you have heard this one before. National title winning team loses huge chunks of the offense to the NBA and graduation and then is forced to rely on a handful of uppeclassmen who have never been in the spotlight and freshmen. Yes, this is 2006 all over again, however since UNC ...
Henson Will Play The Perimeter
tarheelfanblog.com 10/13/2009 — According to Roy :
“John will begin the season on the perimeter as a three and I think he will stay there all season. He has tremendously long arms and will probably block more shots than any perimeter player in college basketball. With Ed (Davis) and Deon (Thompson), we may block more shots ...
UNC 88 Valpo 77
tarheelfanblog.com 16 days ago — Except for a stretch in the first ten minutes of the 2nd half, this game was not pretty on a variety of levels. UNC opened up a 24 point lead after halftime on the strength of some efficient offensive execution and some pretty good defense. Outside of that the offense was suspect and late in ...
UNC 77 OSU 73
tarheelfanblog.com 12 days ago — You know they made that a lot harder than it had to be.
It is easy to dwell on OSU cutting the lead to two late. That can be hung on Larry Drew missing FTs and UNC looking like a bunch of fifth graders trying to break the Buckeye press at the end of the game. That will get better or at least ...

North Carolina wins ugly but tough
the5thcorner.com 11 days ago — When it was all said and done fourth ranked North Carolina came out a winner against #15 Ohio State by the final of 77 to 73 in the semis of the Coaches vs Cancer Tournament. If we just looked at the Madison Square Garden scoreboard I would almost have to say I was pretty close with my ...
UNC 89 NCCU 42
tarheelfanblog.com 20 days ago — So this game is rolling along with NC Central hanging right in there at 19-17 following a pair of Eagle three pointers. Then UNC spent the next 12 minutes crushing the life out of the Eagles to take a 51-20 lead at the half. In case you forgot basic math, that is a 32-3 run by the Heels. UNC ...
