Tar Heel Basketball Notebook

Posted Oct 6, 2005

After a year of high expectations, the Tar Heels are anticipating an underdog role this year. "I think it's fun that people aren't expecting us to be that good," UNC guard Wes Miller says. "They're looking down on us and that's a good spot to be in. We'll surprise people. We'll be a fun team to watch and we're going to do some good things." (Tar Heel Blue)
