Are there any doubts that North Carolina is getting the deal of a lifetime in 2011? Future Tar Heels basketball walk-on has scored 63 points in two games for the undefeated Smoky Mountain boys (2-0). Both wins have come against Enka, including Friday's 84-80 game in Candler. Simmons led the Mustangs with 29 points. Simmons scored 34 points in a 79-60 win Nov. 23 in Sylva.
