Zeller hopes to give Heels a jolt

Posted Feb 21, 2009
Tyler Zeller couldn't pass up a chance to play a meaningful role in North Carolina's run at another national championship. “I've got to help support them if I can help them in any way. ... I feel like I'm obligated, just because they have been great to me the whole time I have been injured." Coach Roy Williams now has to give Zeller a crash-course in the speed and intensity necessary to compete in the ACC. (Asheville Citizen-Times)
