One of the Best Teams to Never Win It: The 2016 Tar Heels

Marcus Paige and Brice Johnson didn’t deserve for their college careers to end the way they did, and it was sickening there wasn’t a way for them to get redemption. The good news? The 2016-17 team got the job done in their honor. (Tar Heel Blog)
