UNC's Harrison Barnes, Kentucky's Brandon Knight are cold-blooded kids

UNC and Kentucky lock horns in New Jersey tonight — Old Money versus Old Money — for a berth in the Final Four. The way the Tar Heels and Wildcats have been playing, there’s a decent chance the NCAA Tournament’s East Regional final could come down to which school has the rock last. Or rather, which player. In one corner, there’s Harrison Barnes, the freshman from Ames, as smooth and as level as a wooden cutting board. (Des Moines Register)
