UNC 107 Belmont-Abbey 59 —
Tar Heel Fan
Work in progress indeed.
It is important to remember a few things about this game. First, it is an exhibition so Roy Williams did a lot of personnel shakeups he will not be doing a month from now. Secondly, it was also the first time under the bright lights of the Dean Dome for the freshmen ...
UNC 88 FIU 72 —
Tar Heel Fan
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 before Roy Williams emptied the bench placing a ...

Vanderbilt Scrimmage Was “Ugly” —
Tar Heel Fan
What is the first rule of secret scrimmages? Don’t talk about secret scrimmages.
Roy Williams did indicate UNC’s play against Vanderbilt this past Sunday rated somewhere between the mutt who keeps knocking your trash can over and what you might find in the diaper of a newborn.
