Got some more information about UNC Basketball Tickets that you might want to check out. The season is already underway, and this site has a write up about some of the players for UNC this year that is really interesting.
The description of Tyler Hansbrough is particularly engaging, but he also talks about Danny Green, Ty Lawson and others on the roster as well. It’s an interesting read to say the least. UNC fans are always looking for more information about their team while the team isn’t playing, so here you go.
Ty Lawson is one of the fastest point guards I’ve ever seen in college basketball, quite frankly. Even after seeing Dee Brown of Illinois a few years ago and Ray Felton, Lawson seems to be faster than either of them. He runs the point a less purely than Felton, but you can’t argue with his assist to turnover ratio. One thing about this year’s Tar Heels is how Will Graves has come on and been getting more and more minutes for North Carolina’s team, a welcome addition for coach Roy Williams with the injuries to Copeland, Hansbrough and Marcus Ginyard. The UNC bench is so deep that even with the injuries they are the best team in the nation. It’s actually kind of hard to fathom, but UNC basketball may be in for the most stellar year they’ve ever had, and that is really saying something.

Writing about the top Freshman of the 2009 college basketball season this early in the season might be exercise in futility, but that doesn’t stop some people from talking about it, even basketball recruiting sites.
This time of year is so fantastic, we’ve got pro football, pro basketball, college basketball and college football all converging at the same time. And lest we forget, there’s even hockey. It’s a magical time of year in a sports fan’s calendar, all right. You just can’t beat it. During the long summer months of trying to survive the boring day to day repetitive grind of baseball and NASCAR, keeping up with basketball recruiting is about the only way to survive. It’s hard to pay attention, and even though during the fall and winter I listed non stop to sports radio, during the summer I forget that it’s even on the dial. I’m glad I am not in that business, I’d flounder during those times of the year. I couldn’t even fake interest from about June until September…even preseason pro football interests me more than postseason baseball and NASCAR isn’t even a sport to me. I know there are tons of NASCAR fans, but it just isn’t even remotely interesting to me. That’s why I follow AAU basketball, it gives me something to do.

Clemson has gotten a basketball recruiting commit, while Derrick Favors could announce “any day now”, according to ZAGSBLOG:
“Looks like he may go in the early period now,” Smith wrote in a text message Tuesday morning. “Hopefully any day now. Everyone will find out at the same time as he will do it live on ESPNU.”
