The shooting guards were mostly easy to choose. Wayne Ellington finished strong as 2009 Tournament MOP. Upon his arrival to Chapel Hill I don’t see him being the player he was thought to be entering as a freshman.
Jerry Stackhouse played alot of 2guard in the NBA but not at Carolina. Joseph Forte will be the #4 seed here. Some may take exception to this but I’ll explain my reasoning.
Forte in 2000 led an 8 seeded Tar Heel team to the Final Four. He played where at times the 2nd and 3rd best options were pro athletes but in the NFL. He kept The Heels relevant in the post Dean, pre Roy Williams era. Finally does it matter who the 4th seed is?
