It's Zeller time and the UNC big guy is enjoying life

Posted Mar 3, 2012
Saturday night at Cameron Indoor Stadium, Tyler Zeller wasn't even on the floor when Tar Heels sealed their 88-70 victory for the outright ACC regular-season championship. He had a front-row seat after fouling out with 48.9 seconds remaining, a view he admitted enjoying under the circumstances. "First of all, I just wanted to win the game," Zeller said after finishing with 19 points and 10 rebounds. (Durham Herald-Sun)
