Is Tyler Hansbrough a first teamer?

Posted Feb 28, 2009
There has never been a 4-time selection on the All-ACC first team in basketball. Tyler Hansbrough could be the first. But there is concern in Chapel Hill that Hansbrough won't get enough votes to be a first teamer. This is an incredibly challenging year to whittle down to a 5-man first team. I don't have my final 5 yet because there are too many important basketball games to be played. (WRAL Sports Fan)
