Fox, Tar Heels not bothered by recent slide

Posted May 17, 2013
Back when North Carolina got out to a 39-2 start to the season, head coach Mike Fox warned that a bad stretch was coming. The Tar Heels had yet to hit the toughest portion of their schedule at that point in the year, and now they’ve faced four of the top 20-30 teams in the country over the past 3 1/2 weeks. They posted a 2-5 record in those games. Don’t tell Fox that his team is in a slide, though. (Fox Sports Carolinas)
