The state of Indiana puts out some outstanding talent almost every year. That is why the top schools recruit hard there. UNC got National Championships from Montross and May…now let’s see if Zeller can help UNC do well in the NCAA

The state of Indiana should be proud to put out so many talented big men. UNC has been very fortunate to have three now…with the other two taking UNC to the National Championship (Montross, May). All three of the other schools in competition will be very good to great. I know Tyler will play as much as he wants at UNC becaue they love big men who can run the floor.

Hooray! for UNC. Another recruiting coup. Just reloading next year, after this year’s national championship.

The key to good BBAll and good recruiting is COACHING. Roy has just got IT. Indiana was a power. Now it’s just a historical footnote. and, of course a recruiting ground for UNC! I hope we don’t hear all the whining like we did about Sean May. it’s not attractive.

Big A,
I agree, but you have to admit you wouldn’t complain. I think through a good year we could have these one year studs on a rotational basis. I think what Sampson does best is find great hidden talent( Roth, Pritchard and Crawford. (I’m excited about Pritchard, because of his footwork is pretty advanced for a junior in high school). Time will tell but I’m really not that worried that we couldn’t get Zeller.

Jaime,

As much as I’d love to have Stephenson, he’s probably one and done. I’m not opposed to kids only staying for a year, but we also need to land some solid four year guys (which the staff is doing well with Roth, Holloway and Pritchard). Those are the players you build a program with.

I think that if Sampson develops Holman he could become better than Tyler Zeller. We need Ebanks to recruit Stephenson badly and make him wear the cream and crimson. I think with a great year of basketball it will lay a foundation for future recruits.

Dammit as soon as I heard he was announcing at a Ponderosa I thought he was a lock for the Hoosiers!

For Christ’s sake, there’s a Ponderosa, Wendy’s and Arby’s within 150 feet of eachother in Bloomington!! Please reconsider!! Do they even have Arby’s in Chapel Hill!!??!?!?

Best of Luck to TZ. I had a feeling he was going to be a Tar Heel at least he did not commit to Purdue.
