Dickey V's top 30

GT comes in at #5 - link here. We were #7 in his last version. In fact here is the OLD version - link here.

After reaching the national-championship game last season, coach Paul Hewitt's team will be a contender again this time around. Schenscher keeps getting better and better in the middle, and Jack is a great leader. Elder can flat-out score, and the newcomers could help out

Now, Dickey V has North Carolina #1. Frankly I cannot believe anyone would pick them #1. They have the best individual talent in the nation and the worst team chemistry of anyone in the top 30.

Check out Rashad McCants latest comments on being at North Carolina, brom SI.com:
Rashad McCants, the enigmatic guard who led North Carolina in scoring last season, compared playing for the Tar Heels to being in prison.

In an interview with WRAL-TV that aired Friday night, he also said being a part of the team was like a 9-to-5 job.

"You're not allowed to do certain things," he said. "You're not allowed to say certain things, but once you get out of jail, you're free. [I'm] in my sentence and I'm doing my time."
Hey, recruits - check THAT out!!! Dickey V, you've got this team #1, with their top scorer saying whacko stuff like this?????

Of course, ESPN Page 2 nails it - link here.
Official tip-off to the college hoops season. And, based on the preseason hype for No.1 UNC, the chance for Roy Williams to pull his greatest job of underachievement yet!


However, it looks like North Carolina's new uniforms are really slamming. Here is Sean May modeling one:
