Tyler Zeller is building a special place in Tar Heels fans’ heart
Posted Mar 17, 2012
There’s a secret chamber inside the hearts of UNC fans that few players get to reside in – perpetual appreciation. Tyler Hansbrough has a condo there. So do Lennie Rosenbluth, Charles Scott, Phil Ford, James Worthy, Michael Jordan and a few others. Tyler Zeller isn’t in there yet. But if the Tar Heels can win the NCAA championship, Zeller’s accomplishments may never be duplicated by a UNC player.
