Which hoops power will bounce back best?
Posted Aug 1, 2010
I think North Carolina has the best chance, followed by Arizona, UConn and finally UCLA. I can't imagine the Heels -- with all their talent -- missing the NCAA field for the second season in a row. True freshman Harrison Barnes should provide a huge impact, and I think sophomore John Henson will be much more ready for the rigors of college basketball. And there's no way UNC's guard play can be that mediocre again.
