UNC Focused on Improvement, Not Panicking After Six Games

Posted Nov 24, 2021
"Everybody's been on us for our defense," Brady Manek said after UNC's 72-53 win over UNC Asheville. "And we're giving up so many points and all I hear is people are outscoring us by this much and teams are in the 90s, this and that. Well, we played defense (tonight) and we didn't really play offense. We've got to play both. We can't just pick one." (Inside Carolina)
