Rout over, Longhorns can turn attention to Tar Heels
Posted Dec 16, 2009
Every college basketball player has a North Carolina story, and minutes after Tuesday's win over Texas-Pan American the stories began to flow, particularly from two of the team's newest stars. "I always think of Michael Jordan because he's the greatest," said freshman guard Avery Bradley. "They've always been an elite program and it's exciting to play them. I can't even remember the last time Texas played North Carolina."
