Jason Capel Felt "Disrespected" By UNC Tweet

Posted Feb 2, 2023
Former Tar Heel forward Jason Capel felt disrespected Wednesday by a UNC graphic it tweeted earlier in the day. The image featured UNC walk-on Creighton Lebo, who wears number 25, as did Capel when he played for the Tar Heels from 1998-2002. After the game, Capel yelled at some fans before heading to the locker room. But it didn’t end there. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
