UNC got back on track again last night after being down early. Ellington scored all of his points in the second half; tremendous shooter. Did anybody else this this Dequan Jones kid for Miami? SICK dunk and quite an athlete: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/h2YeupqUZ6U&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/h2YeupqUZ6U&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
It looks like UNC is going to have to scratch and claw its way through conference play. No one fears them anymore, and their swagger is gone. Do they still have a chance to regroup and win it all? Sure. But the days of coasting to the tournament are long gone--it's going to be a dogfight to the finish. I love the ACC stepping up with its high quality of play just when people were about to anoint the Big East as the unequivocal best conference.
