Heels can do without Tyler Zeller
Posted Nov 24, 2008
Yes, Tyler Zeller will be a very good college player -- someday. You know what he was on this UNC team, though, once everyone gets healthy? About the eighth or ninth man. Yes, Zeller would be valued for his height and the fact he has five fouls to give, but let's be serious. The Tyler that really matters on this team is Hansbrough. If you're rating Zeller's season-ending broken wrist on a calamity scale of 1 to 10, I'd give the Zeller injury a 4.
