There was singing, dancing and pizza. There were tributes and awards. There was awkward silence.
Eighteen months ago, the aesthetic revolution began, when North Carolina and Nike met to discuss changes to UNC’s athletic identity.
I’m sure we’ve all had our suspicions, but now we know for sure: Dean Smith was a terrible person.
Bess Brinkley insists she’s not interesting, that what she did is not worthy of a conversation, much less a column.
Greensboro — Tears came easier than words to Brice Johnson as the 6-foot-9 forward held his head in his hands. It wasn’t so long ago that it seemed he and the North Carolina basketball team held the program’s 18th ACC Tournament Title in their grasp as well.
Recently, UNC and Daily Tar Heel alumnus S.L. Price wrote a piece for Sports Illustrated about how The Carolina Way is dead. He quotes former UNC provost and dean of the college Samuel Williamson as saying, “I can’t believe Roy Williams doesn’t know what the hell’s going on. If I believe that, I believe donkeys fly.”
Greensboro — It would be wrong to call Justin Jackson quiet. He’s certainly not the most vocal member of the North Carolina basketball team, but it’s hard to blame him when he lives with Joel Berry and part-time cheerleader Theo Pinson.
Greensboro — It hadn't even been 10 minutes since his team's 70-60 win over Louisville in the quarterfinal of the ACC Tournament, but Roy Williams thought the crowd in the press conference auditorium could use a reminder.

ATLANTA — Easy is rarely exciting. There can be flashes of pizazz, and there definitely were in North Carolina’s 81-49 win over Georgia Tech on Tuesday. There was the token J.P. Tokoto throwdown and freshman Joel Berry’s career-high 15 points.
CORAL GABLES, FLA. — It comes too naturally to Brice Johnson for him to fully appreciate its significance. Don’t think he doesn’t enjoy it — he’d be crazy not to — but maybe his vantage point prohibits him from witnessing the impact it can have.
CORAL GABLES, Fla. — There was a time when a North Carolina victory was as predictable as TV broadcasters mentioning Kennedy Meeks’ weight loss during a game. A time when UNC had won 11 of 12 games. When press conferences became so wonderfully monotonous that J.P. Tokoto brought along a stuffed bear as a companion.
They were on a 10-2 run, but they were still down eight points.
Marcus Paige might just love PNC Arena.
Forgive me, father, for I am about to sin: Duke is better than North Carolina.
Joel James has forged his fame on the sideline. The 6-foot-10 forward has compiled a catalog of celebrations and all but trademarked the menacing mean mugs he unleashes on unsuspecting opposing players.
The North Carolina men’s basketball team is all too familiar with the film room. At times this season it has offered a pat on the back. It’s been a haven of highlights. But it hasn’t been a happy place as of late.
Dean Smith would have hated this.
Tonight could have been huge. Undefeated Virginia heading into the Smith Center to take on North Carolina, a red-hot team on a seven-game winning streak. The No. 1 team in the ACC vs. the No. 2.
This month, UNC sent its final $590,000 check to Butch Davis, severing ties with the walking NCAA investigation formerly known as a coach.
