Harrison Barnes wants to create a Tar Heel legacy
Posted Apr 19, 2011
Harrison Barnes wants to be Michael Jordan. Not, the NBA one, who has his jersey retired in Chicago. At least not yet. Right now, Barnes has his eyes set on the Jordan jersey in the North Carolina rafters. Barnes, the former Ames High star, announced on Monday he will return for his sophomore season at North Carolina because he wants to leave a legacy in Chapel Hill.
