2008-09 North Carolina Basketball Preview: #1
Posted Nov 20, 2008
When a team returns their top six scorers from a group that went 36-3 and reached the Final Four, they will be the favorites heading into the season. And for North Carolina it is not even close. The Tar Heels return so much talent that anyone who doesn’t have them as their preseason number one is either lying or a joke. The high expectations are in large part due to the return of Tyler Hansbrough.
