As is the case, everytime we come close to the game it is time for me to do my usual post that I call my "Last Thoughts" . (On a side note for anyone that missed my preview for the game you can check it out here ) As you know this post is all about what my gut feeling tells me or what I am ...

Read this epic story from UNC Athletics writer Adam Lucas on how waiting for their flight to leave Hawaii a man passed out and video coordinator Eric Hoots has Hansbrough and Thompson help bring the man to the galley for doctors to work on him. Crazy stuff.

In the latest Hansbrough injury saga the question has been asked of whether Hansbrough should play on Sunday against UNC-Asheville? Remember, the giant Kenny George no longer plays for UNCA after having part of his foot amputated for MRSA. So, you wouldn't have the wow factor like last year ...

One of the reasons to go to the Maui Invitational - the Halftime Show Roy throwing the goat - I never get tired of Roy going all deathmetal Roy teaching hard The matchup of All-Americans Hansbrough and Harangody The Zellers wearing split t-shirts  ...

In 2004 UNC won the final by beating Iowa 106-92. Iowa was not #8 in the country at the time. Tyler Hansbrough is back. Ty Lawson is back. Deon Thompson kept it rolling. The result was a sound beating of #8 Notre Dame who only made it close by having Kyle McAlarney shoot threes from ...

We’re really not in the mood for this tonight, so it’s going to be short/sweet. Either you pass or fail, that’s the deal. Game of the Night. UNC 102, Notre Dame 87. Notre Dame. EPIC FAIL. Carolina shot 58% on you. Just. Go. Home. Tyler Hansbrough. PASS.  ...

UNC beats Notre Dame 102-87...FINAL..................... The second half came off like the first half - it was the Ty show. Hansbrough has 34 points and Lawson put up a double-double in the win. UNC dominated the second half pushing the lead in to 20+ and shuting down the All-American ...

UNC up 46-36...................... Right now, it's the Ty show - Ty Lawson and Tyler Hansbrough. Ty Lawson is taking it to the bucket, totally burning everyone in front of me, and scoring at will. Meanwhile, Hansbrough is doing his work mostly on the outside - including hitting a 3. What? ...

Here's the AP's recap of UNC's beat down of Oregon. Note that half the article is on whether Hansbrough will play tonight against Notre Dame.

by Sportz Assassin Well, I guess all the college basketball honks get what they wanted: Luke Harangody's Notre Dame Fighting Irish facing off against Tyler Hansbrough and the North Carolina Tar Heels for the Maui Invitational championship. Notre Dame 81, Texas 80: Harangody poured in 29 ...

UNC up 51-22............................... UNC is currently issuing a class-act ass-whipping on Oregon. You knew that UNC was going to go off when Hansbrough got banged in the nose by one of Oregon's big guys and it wasn't called. That's like waking up a giant. (So obviously Hansbrough is ...

There is still no word from Roy or UNC Athletics whether Hansbrough will play tonight against Oregon. Hansbrough apparently tweaked an ankle against UCSB that doesn't help matters. More soon.

Did everything they were supposed to, especially with about four minutes left in the first half on. Since it was a DII team we can glean nothing from the experience other than career highs for JB Tanner and Justin Watts who both had nine. Tyler Hansbrough was held out but because Roy did not ...
