ACC Insider: This time, Tar Heels get final shot
Posted Apr 5, 2009
As freshmen, Tyler Hansbrough, Danny Green and Bobby Frasor made an early second-round exit their first taste of NCAA experience.

Last year, it was the bad start against Kansas that got them in the national semifinals. And now, in their last chance to cement their legacy as a group, they’ve made it all the way to the final game.
