NCAA: Top of the Class
Posted Sep 5, 2009
It's almost like the word rebuilding isn't in Roy Williams' vocabulary. The Tar Heels may have lost Tyler Hansbrough, Danny Green, Ty Lawson, and Wayne Ellington but they're STILL a top ten team going into next season. If replacing a group of that caliber is impossible then Coach Williams has gotten as close as any coach can get. Coming into UNC this year is a solid five man crew that is highlighted by John Henson, a 6'10 combo forward with lethal versatility.
