Michael Jordan’s custom UNC-themed golf cart
NBA great Michael Jordan has his own custom golf cart. It doesn’t have the capabilities of Bubba Watson’s ‘hovercart’, but it’s nice nevertheless.
Jordan’s vehicle is of course in Tar Heel blue, and features the Nike MJ logo on the front, some nice shiny rims and embroidered seats.
North Carolina fan cries after Tarheels lose (GIF)
A North Carolina Tarheels fan was seen crying on camera as his team lost 70-58 to the Kansas Jayhawks in Sunday's NCAA basketball tournament game in Kansas City.
With Kansas serving as the top seed in the South region, it would have been a big upset if UNC won, so not sure why this Tarheel fan was so upset.

BEHIND ENEMY LINES
Roy Williams spoke in Miami's locker room
After Miami defeated North Carolina in this past Sunday’s ACC Tournament title game, Tarheels coach Roy Williams went into the Hurricanes’ locker room to offer congratulations to the team. Weird, right? Maybe this kind of thing happens more often than we know? I’d love to know what was going through coach Jim Larranaga’s head while Williams spoke. Was he honored?

Roy Williams: Oh yeah, he's overrated
Ladies and gentlemen, North Carolina Tar Heels head coach, Mr. Roy Williams. Overrated MaGee. Give this guy a million bucks, he turn it into ah-hundred. BUT TREEEEEEEEEEY. THE GUY HAS WON TWO RINGS!!! That’s nice. I’m not going to sit here and type out a complete bastardization of a championship or two. He earned them, no matter who recruited the players…or how able bodied...
UNC to wear new road uniforms against NC State
Yesterday, NIKE had announced that UNC would be wearing the new Hyper Elite Road uniforms this Saturday versus NC State. This came as a huge surprise to pretty much everyone at UNC and was quickly refuted on Twitter by various Tar Heel sources. It was not that UNC wouldn't be wearing a new road uniform this season, the issue was it apparently was not happening this weekend. We...
What's wrong with Carolina?
Is it fair to ask what's wrong with a team that just lost on the road in a game in which they were the underdog? Absolutely. Because they never should have put themselves in a position to be the underdog - in other words, they should be better. For starters, look at the talent. UNC has 9 guys on their roster who were consensus top 100 recruits. Here are the teams which began...

Dexter Strickland rips on NC State
North Carolina senior guard Dexter Strickland is not the most well-liked man in Raleigh right about now. Strickland is coming off a knee injury that ended his junior season in mid-January, and he is kicking off his final season with the Tar Heels by blasting one of his team’s in-state rivals. He took aim at the Wolfpack during a recent interview with CBS Sports’ Jeff Goodman...
North Carolina Basketball: Next year’s team won’t have the pressure this one had
About a year ago Chapel Hill was going insane when word came out that Tyler Zeller, John Henson and Harrison Barnes were all coming back to play once again under head coach Roy Williams. From that moment forward the expectations of a season ending in New Orleans with another national championship began to elevate with each passing day. And while making no excuses for this squad,...
