Michael Malone challenges ‘manhood’ at halftime vs. Wyoming, Tar Heels respond

Posted Nov 11, 2026
It took one half for UNC to take control of the boards and, by extension, the game. Once the Tar Heels started limiting Wyoming’s second shots, they pulled away to a 76-63 win Tuesday at the Smith Center. “I challenged our manhood at halftime,” Coach Michael Malone said. "We had guys that had just played a whole half of basketball with zero rebounds." (Tar Heel Tribune)
