Legacy on the Line for Harrison Barnes in St. Louis

Posted Mar 22, 2012
If Harrison Barnes leads this team to a championship then he will have cemented his place in Tar Heel lore and will have fulfilled every expectation during his UNC career. One of the most under-appreciated aspects of Barnes’ game is that when he’s engaged, he lifts his team. The best thing Barnes can do for UNC in St. Louis is to be human and to fill the personality void that Kendall Marshall most likely will leave behind. (Oxford Public Ledger)
