The women heels still have a shot at the tourney, but they'll have to prove they are worthy of it. Losing 5 straight is not the way to do it. They have dropped out of both polls, just like the men.

The Tar Heels (16-8, 4-6 ACC) were 20th in the coaches' poll last week and 18th in the AP poll. They have lost five straight games, the most recent an 82-78 overtime loss to Virginia on Monday.
Their misery mirrors that being experienced by the men's team, which last month fell out of the ESPN/USA Today coaches' Top 25 for the first time since January 2006. The men (14-11, 3-7) have just two wins in their last nine games.

I wonder is Sylvia Hatchell would be doing a better job with the men's team than Roy is? :rolleyes:

What am I thinking, of course she would... :p

when was the last time both of them were unranked at the same time? i'd imagine you'd have to go to the previous time the men were unranked before 2006

The last time the women were unranked was in Nov, 2001, and the men sucked then, too. Also unranked.

It's the first time in 172 weeks -- a streak dating back to Nov. 20, 2001 -- that the Tar Heels were not ranked in the coaches' poll.

I guess this just proves the adage that misery loves company.:D

What do you expect from a football school?
