We're always competitive. This is a huge difference. Virtually an entire Final Four team returning with the addition of one of the best recruting classes in the country!! Thats loaded with a capital L.
The only down side is the expectations of a team with this much talent, but it's one heck of a nice problem to have.
I can't even imagine what a monstrous season Tyler Hansbrough is going to have this year. After being Player of the Year last year as a junior, what more can he do this year as a senior? I predict, yes, a National Championship. I'm not going to get excited though, or else I'll be disappointed about a loss in the NCAA Tournament. With Wayne, Ty Law, and T.H. returning plus Deon Thompson and Marcus Ginyard, this will be an amazing season.
good call tyellington. Tyler will get less minutes, a WELL DESERVED rest. There's a reason he didn't even test the waters this year-- he wants that championship. While I'd love to see him blow many more records out of the water (especially the all-time ACC points record currently held by a d00kie), I really just want this team to win that title. We've been let down the past 2 years after being very pleasantly surprised Tyler's freshman year. Anything less than a championship would be... well... a disappointment, not just for us as fans, but for the boys in the Carolina Blue.
were are gonna be loaded this year. but the bad news is after this year our teams just gonna have freshman. but if this UNC team doesnt win the championship than were gonna be thought of as a laughting stock. and we should go undefeated as well. go ahead and start clearing out the trophy case in chapel hill.
Man this is why I hate these Carolina fans the belief that it is their god given right to win the belief that they are the holy be all end all of college basketball you guys just can't shut up you are UNC you will always have talent it does not mean you will be Champions last year Dick Vitale and all of ESPN said the same thing and proclaimed you the best team which you clearly were not after my Jayhawks kicked the holy entitlement out of you baby blue asses something the whole country enjoyed.
It will be the same thing Dicky UNC will praise the Tar Holes than in the end you will blow it and lose just like this year.
I know it's hard for you guys to comprehend but College basketball will be fine without you and you are not the "holy grail" either
Rock Chalk Jayhawks the 2008 NCAA Defending National Champions.
being loaded is not always a good thing. too many guys to go around can be a problem for chemistry so we will see if Roy can handle it and get another championship.
