Oh yes with the return of senior leader Marcus Paige, Carolina put everybody on notice that the preseason number one status when EVERYONE is available was not a mistake. Now every team UNC faces from now on will not be able to focus defensively on Jackson and Johnson because now another shooter is on the floor. Now the fun really begins..

This is the team we have been waiting for indeed!

MP is unbelievably tough in addition to being the best player on the floor!
 
Or maybe Maryland is a bit overrated as well....

They might be. I kind of think so. But they played their collective ass off in our game. And I assure you that Trimble is definitely not overrated. He's a baller that was unconscious for a large part of that game. So while Maryland may indeed be overrated, the team we played the other night was a FF caliber team playing their best game of the year so far. And we beat them with even better play.

Did you WATCH the game? They were very good. I don't think there are very many teams that would have withstood that performance and come away with a win.

Now that's not to say they'll play to that level every game, but they certainly don't deserve the "overrated" tag for that loss.

MD is not overrated. They are already very good in December, as are we. Both teams should even better by March.

You saying that Wisconsin wasn't the best Big 10 team last year? Playing them on the road as well. Let me know.

UNC has received the top Big 10 team in the last 3 of 4 years. We're 2 of 3 in that span.
