Heels playing it smart
Posted Aug 17, 2010
Ryan Houston described North Carolina's offense as faster, Alan Pelc used the word "smarter," and T.J. Yates preferred the adjective "cleaner." All three UNC veterans are saying the same thing - through the first 10 days of practice, the Tar Heels' offense has looked better. How that will translate when the season starts on Sept. 4 will be determined.
