Eric Montross says send it down low to beat Wildcats
Posted Apr 3, 2009
Dick Vitale graced the UNC faithful by stamping the Tar Heels as his pick to win the Final Four this weekend in Detroit. Former UNC big man Eric Montross would know all about it. He was a part of the 1993 NCAA championship team that beat Michigan in New Orleans. Now the color analyst for the Tar Heel Sports Network, Montross said the plan should be to consistently dump the ball down low.
