No Slump: White shines on mound for Tar Heels
Teammates suspected that workhorse White would deliver a ferocious effort. Coaches assumed high levels of concentration and grit. "I don't think he just wants to be good," Forbes said. "I think he wants to be the best. He wants to be out there in a tougher situation.... He may fail, but I'll tell you one thing, that kid does not fear it. He does not fear failure. He wants to be the guy. Like Michael Jordan used to say: ‘I miss a lot of shots because I want to be the guy taking them.' That's how Alex is. He wants the ball in his hands." (Winston-Salem Journal)
