Posted Jan 18, 2012
When the game ended, and the frenzied celebration began, and Florida State’s fans stormed the court, most of the North Carolina players were already gone. Most, but not all. Five Sacrificial Rams remained. Greensboro’s David Dupont, a 6-foot-5 senior forward who starred at Grimsley, was among the Tar Heels on the court for the final 14.2 seconds of Florida State’s 33-point victory Saturday afternoon.
