UNC vs. James Madison: Three Things Learned

After Tuesday’s rough outing against Gardner-Webb, the first inklings of real concern started to permeate throughout about Carolina basketball. The win wasn’t inspiring, Hubert Davis talked a lot of yellow flags, and the team coming in Chapel Hill on Sunday had been an offensive juggernaut — albeit against pretty weak competition. The team just seemed to lack...something...from the squad that had the amazing run at the end of last season.

After Sunday, those concerns are a little less harrowing.

The Tar Heels raced out to a 19-point lead in the first half, played basically even in the second, and coasted to their fourth victory of the season, 80-64.
