Off the cuff: The Tar Heels are now 13-0 against Stanford but it wasn't easy. Sloppy play, including turnovers that came in droves, kept it close. "Our turnovers led to their easy baskets," said freshman Caleb Love, who had five of UNC's 24 turnovers. "Once we stopped turning it over, we took over." Yeah, right. The Heels never stopped turning it over and a four-point win is hardly taking over. "We've got to come out with fire and energy the next game," he added. That much is true. The Tar Heels play Texas, a team that has given Carolina problems over recent years. Former Tar Heel great Eric Montross said that if Carolina turns it over against Texas like they did against Stanford, the Heels will be killed. Coach Williams of course didn't like going up against his former player and former UNC assistant coach Jarod Haase. He said Haase is like a son to him and he knows how hard Haase takes losses. By the way, the TV broadcast is excruciating as the announcers - particularly flower child Bill Walton - talk about everything but the game. Sometimes it's about the players who are playing the game but rarely actual calls of the game. Learn to sync up the UNC radio broadcast if you want to avoid such announcing in the future. |
