Sporting News College Basketball Top 25

Posted Jun 25, 2014
No. 5, North Carolina: Nobody has more point guards. It's not like in football, where having two quarterbacks means you have none. In basketball, you can play them together and win a title, as Connecticut did in both 2011 and 2014. One of the guys who'll play is Marcus Paige, who demonstrated he is a legitimate star. Veteran Nate Britt and freshman Joel Berry can fight it out for the other spot. (Sporting News)
