Seven hours before the start of his team’s game against Texas on Wednesday night, Harrison Barnes was already in the Smith Center, waiting for the Longhorns shoot-around to end. Roy Williams had told his players to arrive at 1:45 for a shoot-around of their own. But Barnes was there by noon, waiting to go onto the court. Williams recounted the story after North Carolina’s 82-63 victory against the Longhorns. (Raleigh News & Observer)
