Tyler Hansbrough sets mark in No. 1 UNC's 91-73 win

Posted Dec 19, 2008
Phil Ford stood at midcourt, waiting for Tyler Hansbrough to take the microphone and address the home crowd. As the reigning national player of the year walked up, Ford playfully bowed in reverence before giving him a hug. Now even the famed point guard who flawlessly ran Dean Smith's "Four Corners" offense is looking up at Hansbrough as the storied program's all-time leading scorer. (WRAL Sports Fan)
