Hansbrough will be a key
Posted Nov 19, 2005
No one has read a Tyler Hansbrough quote yet because UNC freshmen aren't allowed to speak to the media until after they've played a game. UNC hosts Gardner-Webb tonight in its first official action, so look for quotes from the 6-foot-9, 235-pound Hansbrough in Sunday's paper. If there are no Hansbrough quotes, the Tar Heels are in serious trouble. Folks who bleed light blue insist the Tar Heels will make the NCAA tournament, but that's a daydream unless Hansbrough is Superman.
