Jacobs: Outward Parallels Misleading

Posted Oct 27, 2010
So here we are on the eve of another season, with the outward parallels to last year as numerous as they are misleading.

Once again, the Heels return a complementary season-long starter (Drew II) and plenty of experienced reserves, bolstered by one of the nation's top freshman classes. Touted newcomer Harrison Barnes is expected to shine on the wing. (Tar Heel Blue)
