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 ...

Tar Heels fine-tuning a new offense?
Beyond the Arc —
... Tar Heel Fan has extensive details from an observer who watched them practice at length a few weeks ago – length being the key word. Unlike the 2005-06 season, UNC is loaded with tall, athletic players. Shooting could be an issue, but rebounding and defense won’t be mostly because of fleet forwards like Ed Davis, Deon Thompson, Tyler Zeller and freshman John Henson. ...

Speaking of Larry ...
