Real Blue Steel gets some ACC Tournament burn
Posted Mar 11, 2011
Daniel Bolick, Van Hatchell and D.J. Johnston checked in at the scorer's table with 12:41 to go in the half. The Tar Heels were down 13-8 to Miami and handing out turnovers like they were game programs. The Greensboro Coliseum crowd went wild. The UNC starters got an earful from Roy Williams. The first thought in Bolick's mind when Williams called on Real Blue Steel? He shouldn't have eaten so much during pregame.
