I’m a Tar Heel born, I’m a Tar Heel bred, and when I die, I’ll be Tar Heel dead.
To be honest, we’ve always wondered at the wisdom of bringing death into a fight song, but today we share the sentiment of many folks in Vance County: We could die happy after the University of North Carolina’s championship victory in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament Monday night.
Someday, we’d like to see UNC figure out how to win one of these things easily. The five-point win over Illinois, 75-70, almost seems like cruising by the Tar Heels’ standards in NCAA finals. After all, Marvin Williams scored the winning basket with 86 seconds to play.
It took the Heels three overtimes to defeat a Wilt Chamberlain-led Kansas team and complete an undefeated season in 1957. They needed a late Michael Jordan jump shot and an errant pass from Georgetown’s Freddie Brown to James Worthy in 1982, and Chris Webber’s calling of a timeout that Michigan didn’t have saved the day in 1993 (though the final margin was six points, 77-71). Even the women’s team needed a last-second jump shot to win their championship back in the 1990s.
Aside from basking in the victory, we don’t have much important to say. For seniors Jawad Williams, Jackie Manuel and Melvin Scott, who suffered through an 8-20 season as freshmen, the championship is a sign of how far determination, hard work, good coaching and a great recruiting class or two can take you. For juniors Sean May, Raymond Felton and Rashad McCants, we hope we haven’t seen the last of them in Carolina blue.
But we don’t want to worry about the past or the future right now. Today, it’s time to celebrate the two most important facts in college basketball: Carolina is the national champion, and Duke isn’t.
