Big-time game today for young Tar Heels

Posted Dec 3, 2005

"They say it's big-time basketball, and that's what it is. It's big-time," said Marcus Ginyard, who averages 10.0 points per game and leads UNC with nine steals. "You get out there, and you're running twice as fast and twice as long. You've just got to play a lot harder. And you think it doesn't get bigger than that, but then, what do you know? The next game is Kentucky at Kentucky." (Durham Herald-Sun)
