Depth could be an issue if Tar Heels last the weekend
Posted Mar 11, 2011
In 2003-04, only seven North Carolina players averaged more than 10 minutes played per game. During the 2005 national championship season? Eight.

Entering today's noon ACC quarterfinal game against No.9 seed Miami, he has no such luxury.
