[QUOTE="IlliniTarHeel, post: 1301424, member: 11004"] I'm sure that I'm the only Illini fan on here that is also a Carolina fan. I spent 5 years living in Chapel Hill and going to basketball games while my wife was in grad school at UNC. The Illini are priority to me and I hated Carolina in 05 so I have a different perspective. This Carolina team does not have any lotto picks or one and done players. The major contributors are juniors and seniors. They haven't had a one and done since 2006 so while I understand the hatred they have not been like Kansas, Kentucky, or Duke lately. It has been fun as a fan to have good teams year after year with players that stay and you get to know over 3-4 years. I really hope that the Illini get to that level soon and if Carolina gets penalty's and struggles I'm good with that as long as it is after the Illini are back to where they should be first so I still have a team to enjoy. :) [/QUOTE]
