North Carolina's 'Big 4' programs dealing with early struggles
Posted Jan 14, 2014
UNC fans aren't feeling great, obviously. The Tar Heels (10-6) are losers of three straight and are 0-3 in the ACC for the first time since 1996-97. That 1997 team, Dean Smith's last, went on to reach the Final Four. But Antawn Jamison and Vince Carter aren't walking through that door, and as UNC fans watch the Tar Heels struggle on offense, they still pine for P.J. Hairston.
