My take on Carolina sports, from a completely biased perspective
Quote of the Day
"It means that we lost a game." -Kendall Marshal in response to a reporter's question about what going 3-1 over the last four games means to the team. The kid is a leader, folks.
...but Marcus Ginyard won the third Defensive POY award of his career at the Carolina basketball awards banquet. If this award was based on the media, then maybe Ginyard wins the award since he's been deemed a "great" defender since his sophomore year at Carolina. I was personally hoping that John Henson would take the award, with the number of blocks that he piled up with increased minutes after Ed Davis' injury. But, other than Henson's blocks, Carolina played zero defense all season, so maybe the award should have been wiped-out altogether.
Other award winners were: MVP - Deon Thompson (chuckle) Most assists - Larry Drew II Highest field-goal % - Ed Davis Highest free throw % - Will Graves Scholar-Athlete - Tyler Zeller Most Improved - John Henson Most inspirational player - Justin Watts
The most inspirational player award also made me laugh, since Justin Watts has been rumored to be transferring. Maybe he was so inspirational because he's the one with the right idea! Sorry, I'm still bitter about this season.
