Radford was given an hour to practice at Greensboro Coliseum. Fans watched patiently. And then one fan got bored and began to chant, "Let's go Tar Heels!"
The Radford players ignored the North Carolina fans. They focused instead on their fans. Or fan.
The Tar Heels and Highlanders tangle in the first round of the NCAA men's basketball tournament Thursday.
Later, one North Carolina fan began to chant, "Tar!" and another yelled, "Heels." And soon the noise filled the gym.
"Man, they need to find something to do," says Radford forward Jamar Jenkins.
Jenkins laughed. A few of his teammates called for more noise.
"Why don't they save it for Duke?" he asked.
radford could be a dangerous team. if they were seeded higher, they would make some noise in the tourney. watch for art to make the tarheel interior look soft. they are tenacious on the boards and are a gritty bunch in the paint.i wish them the best, but i don't think they have the speed to keep up with unc.

Radford will make the "tarheel interior look soft"? Seriously? Dude, come on. I haven't seen that yet this year and I more than seriously doubt Radford is going to do it. Give me a break.

And god knows such a "fine" institution as UNC deserves suck a wickedly creative chant such as that one. Goes to show you most of their fans couldn't spell diploma, much less earn one.

I'm sorry Procton but where did you go to school? If I'm not mistaken, you talk alot about Dook. I suppose spirit fingers and wearing speedos are better? Take a walk.
