Recall that BO played pickup ball with the Heels during the campaign, and, of course, Reggie's right there.
When I read this piece, I pictured Obama and Love kicking back in the White House watching the game together...
Wonder when the new Basketball Court will be installed? I got "next"!
Why did you get the impression that Obama was rooting for UNC? I certainly didn't get that. He predicted UNC to win it last year, but that doesn't mean he wanted UNC to win it. Just that he thought they were the best team, which is certainly understandable.
Edit: Just found article. He definitely didn't take sides.

Yeah Reggie!"If I said anything contrary to Duke, I might not be able to find my Blackberry,” he joked.
If he says he thought that X might win, probably means he was rooting for that team with all his might. After all many of the folks he knew as "acquaintances" during the campaign were long-term friends and policital allies,,,but were detractors on the campaing trail. All that simply to say, he ain't gonna tell you either way. Hopefully his support or not of Duke basketball won't impact yours in any case.
Let's not take this thread to the PP board...
Thanks,
