Tomorrow will be the last time the seniors on this North Carolina team go into Cameron Indoor Stadium. This class has never lost there. The clip shown earlier is from when Tyler Hansbrough, Bobby Frasor, Danny Green, and Marcus Ginyard were all freshmen. They ruined Senior Night for Sheldon Williams and JJ Redick that night. The three that Psycho T made over Sheldon Williams in that game was the beginning of his legend. In basketball, there are good players, great players, and then there are legendary players. Legendary players have moments in their careers that transcend their talents and accomplishments. Tyler Hansbrough has been that kind of player for Carolina fans. Tomorrow, he'll attempt to add to his Paul Bunyan-worthy canon. (I'll have more on this idea of legendary vs. great later.)
