Tar Heels not just relying on freshmen
Posted Feb 6, 2006
The North Carolina basketball glass is neither half-full nor half-empty. It is completely full.

But for all the praise heaped upon Noel and Terry, it was freshmen Danny Green, Tyler Hansbrough, and Bobby Frasor without whom the Tar Heels' wins would not have been possible.
