Chris Dufresne's preseason top 25: No. 19 North Carolina
Posted Aug 17, 2009
No. 19 is a long way from No. 1, but watch out in 2010, when North Carolina might crack Rankman's preseason top five. We get the sort of vibe with Butch Davis at North Carolina we got with Brown. Davis is checking in the kind of players who might soon make a run to the Atlantic Coast Conference title (Brown's 1997 North Carolina defense featured Greg Ellis and Dre Bly).
