Lucas: Flashback

Posted Jan 8, 2009
I went to the Smith Center on Wednesday night to see Bobby Cremins. Sure, I went to see the Tar Heels, too. But let's be honest: we weren't going to learn much about Carolina that we didn't already know. As soon as the final seconds elapsed from Sunday's stunner, thoughts turned to the next big checkpoint this coming weekend in Winston-Salem. College of Charleston is a good team. But on Wednesday, the star for me was Cremins. (Tar Heel Blue)
