The Washington Post reports (again) that UNC plans on returning all three sophomores for at least one more season. Here are some of the highlights from the article:
"Prior to the season, there was plenty of speculation that this would be the last year in Chapel Hill for [Rashad] McCants, a 6-foot-4 sophomore, and sophomore point guard Raymond Felton. But the year was somewhat disappointing for the Tar Heels, who finished 19-11 overall, 8-8 in the ACC and lost in the first round of the ACC tournament and the second round of the NCAAs.Let's hope Roy is right.
McCants was named first-team all-conference and averaged 20 points and 4.8 rebounds, shooting 40.8 percent from three-point range. But scouts in Denver didn't think he handled the ball well enough to play off guard in the NBA, and he's not tall enough to play small forward.
Felton, the ACC's preseason player of the year, was named to the all-ACC third team and averaged 11.5 points and 7.1 assists, but he shot just 31.2 percent on three-pointers.
"I expect to have all of them back," Coach Roy Williams said. "I really do.""
