Off the cuff: Well, the only untelevised Tar Heels game is in the books. While the masses might not enjoy watching routs like that, Tar Heel fans do. The game against East Tennessee State was available on ESPN3 on the Internet. If you missed it, you can still watch a replay online. This may have been the coming-out party for Brice Johnson, who figures to see the majority of playing time despite the fact that fellow freshman Joel James started against ETSU and played five more minutes. But in 15 minutes, Johnson (who still needs to bulk up some) was the main offensive and defensive force on the court with 12 points and eight rebounds. James Michael McAdoo failed to score in double figures for the first time this season as he scored nine points in 23 minutes, and he pulled in just two rebounds. This was the kind of game where the box score looks a little funny though as the game was over after 10 minutes. We still might not know a lot about this team until the ACC schedule begins in a few weeks.
