Young, talented Tar Heels have issues
Posted Dec 2, 2005
The lack of seniors means little. What good Top 25 program, has an abundance of seniors anyway? But back to issues with Carolina. Who is going to shoot the 3? The Tar Heels will score inside with David Noel and Tyler Hansbrough, who already looks like the surprise player of the season. But the defense is going to clamp down on Carolina's bigs and force the kick out. Someone needs to step into the 3s and strip the net.
