So far, so good for the UNC Tarheels. The Tarheels recently beat Mt. St. Marys 113-74 and then Arkansas 108-77 to advance to the Sweet 16 where they will face Washington State. Tip-off is at 7:27pm, Thursday 3/27/08.
Unfortunately Maryland lost in the NIT to Syracuse 88-72. James Gist and company couldn't get the job done, and it is the last game for both him and fellow Senior, Bambale Osby. Lets wish them the best of luck in this year's NBA draft. Hopefully Maryland can recover by adding incoming Freshmen Sean Mosley, Augustus Gilchrist & Bobby Maze.
North Carolina is playing it's best basketball right now, and are showing us why they are the overall #1 seed in this years NCAA tournament. The heels are playing as a team and firing on all cylinders. Lets give credit where credit is due. Coach Roy Williams has done a fantastic recruiting job by securing such high quality talent such as the recent elite 6 of Brandan Wright, Ty Lawson, Wayne Ellington, Deon Thompson, Alex Stephenson & William Graves, the 2006-07 national #1 recruiting class. For the 2008-09 season he has done it again with Ed Davis, Tyler Zeller & Larry Drew. By the time good ole Roy retires, who knows how may additional championships North Carolina will have. One thing is for sure, you never count out a legend. And Roy Williams is just that. He knows the game, he's classy, and he's a true Tarheel winner. It's great to have Roy back home in Chapel Hill.
