It is an interesting comparison, although UNC was #1 or #2 preseason in the polls and expected to contend for a title this year. In 2009-10, we were ranked closer to the bottom of the top 10 to start the year. Another major difference is our lack of a major academic scandal threatening to permanently stain our integrity and ability to draw talent ending with an eventual transition to NAIA.
I also hope the outcomes are different - for the love of all that is sacred!
