Chansky’s Notebook: The Outfoxing

Quick Hitters - North Carolina vs. Miami

Not that individual accolades matter after a bad loss to Miami, but Armando Bacot notched his eighth straight double-double. He is now tied with Sean May and Mitch Kupchak for the fifth-longest double-double streak in UNC Basketball history. Outside of Bacot, only the freshman duo of Dontrez Styles and D'Marco Dunn shot better than 50% for the game. (All Tar Heels)

Hubert Davis Seeking Player Leadership

"To be a good team you have to have leadership and there has to be somebody outside of the coaching staff that has a voice in the locker room that is amongst the players that binds us together. I've never seen a good team absent of that," Hubert Davis said (Video). " At this moment, we do not have any. And that is something that needs to change." (Inside Carolina)

Miami leaves UNC reeling, searching for answers after worst ACC loss in 10 years

No answers to be found on the court or solutions uncovered afterward for UNC.

Lucas: Thirty Days

You saw the game, so you probably don't need this additional observation from courtside: once it became clear that Miami was going to make things difficult defensively for North Carolina and was going to attack offensively, the Tar Heels simply shriveled. They resorted to one-on-one play on offense and on defense they put up very little resistance. (GoHeels.com)

UNC Basketball Searching for Answers

North Carolina is past the halfway point of its season having played four projected NCAA Tournament teams in its first 17 games - Purdue, Kentucky, Tennessee and Miami. It is still searching for a win over an opponent with a March Madness-caliber resume. To make matters worse, the losses to those four teams have come by an average of 20.8 points. (Inside Carolina)

Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. Miami

The game started at 7 p.m., not 9 p.m. The weather was good. That's about it for the good news from Coral Gables, as Miami ran out to a 27-point halftime lead that tied the biggest halftime deficit in North Carolina basketball history and then cruised to an 85-57 win. It's hard to even know where to start with that first 20 minutes. It was a complete demolition. (GoHeels.com)
