...senior with the sixth man, Davis, a freshman. But I don't even claim that Carolina ia the best in the South. In fact, with N.C. State, UNC, Maryland, Vanderbilt, Alabama, Western Kentucky, Jacksonville and Kentucky, I would claim Carolina is probably only fourth or fifth best below the Mason-Dixon line this year.
