Brady Manek will readily admit he arrived in Chapel Hill on May 17 with only a very cursory knowledge of Carolina basketball history.
It's understandable. The new Tar Heel sharpshooter grew up in Harrah, Oklahoma, and spent four years in college 45 minutes away from home at the University of Oklahoma. You don't get a whole lot of Raycom/Jefferson Pilot broadcasts in Norman.
"I didn't know hardly anything," Manek says of Carolina, "except this is where Michael Jordan went to school."
But he learned plenty very quickly, as Hubert Davis made Manek a priority after accepting the head coach position.
