N&O: UNC begins Doherty era on the run


Cool! They've got the Carolina media guide on-line in PDF format. It's kind of a pain, since it's broken up into a bunch of parts. You can also order a hard copy here.

I've downloaded the whole thing and put it on my website. Why? Well, because I've got a lot of disk space, a lot of bandwidth, and not much sense.


Hey! It looks like Donald Williams is on the Pistons' roster, and Ademola Okulaja is with the Sixers.

As a postscript, it looks like Donald didn't make the team and Ademola has been placed on the injured reserve list (where they can keep players around without having them on the roster).


Here are the 2000-1 schedule and roster.

The Sporting News has a pre-season team ranking. Carolina is #11.
