'Sometimes it gets to be a lot.' How Luke Maye is learning to cope with his UNC celebrity.

When Luke Maye took a seat behind home plate on Saturday, a familiar sound filled an unusual place. The sudden chant of “Luuuuke,” unrelated to anything happening on the field, had some curious Stetson players turning around to look into the stands, baffled at what the Boshamer Stadium crowd might be booing.

Wherever Maye goes on campus, the serenade follows. It's been that way since his shot against Kentucky. It will be that way for another season. (And probably long after that, given what he has accomplished so far in his North Carolina career.)

“Sometimes it gets to be a lot, with trying to watch the game and also trying to take pictures," Maye said.
