Harrison Barnes Believes UNC Would Have Won Title If Not For Marshall Injury
Posted Sep 29, 2017
If Kendall Marshall didn’t get hurt, would UNC have won NCAA the title in 2012? “I believe so,” Harrison Barnes said. “We were a tight-knit unit. This last team that won it, we were able to see how close they were. I feel like we were very similar and close. Obviously Kendall gets hurt and we were unable to make it to the Final Four. If he was out there, we would have won it all.”
