Norfolk Christian (VA) forward James McAdoo has heard all of the jokes and chatter about the possibility of his future team, the North Carolina Tar Heels, having a repeat of their dismal 2009-10 season.
But McAdoo’s not buying it for a second.
“I look at it like this: You have one senior (Justin Knox) and he’s a transfer so he hasn’t even been in the system until this year,” said McAdoo, the headliner of UNC’s 2011 recruiting class who is ranked No. 7 in the HSH National Top 50. MORE >

Quinn Cook walks across Coach K Court inside of Duke’s Cameron Indoor Stadium, stylishly underdressed in a t-shirt, jeans and an oversized cap whipped to the back.
He’s all waves and smiles, as likable as something created by a Disney Imagineer, as he makes his way to his seat behind the Duke bench for its “Countdown to Craziness” event on Oct. 15 to kick off the new season. MORE >

We’re not so self-absorbed that we think our Top 10 list is gospel; let’s just say any argument that can be made to tweak this list can be countered masterfully.
Obviously, it’s tough to pick just 10 point guards over the course of a decade, but we decided the criteria would be based solely on what each player did at the high school level. We don’t care about college busts, NBA accolades, or catchy dances — it’s all about what a player did in high school and how dominant he was doing it. Here are the Top 10 high school point guards from 2000 to 2010. Let the debate begin… MORE >

As he navigates through the hectic recruiting process, HighSchoolHoop.com’s top-rated player, Ames High (IA) swingman Harrison Barnes, has agreed to chronicle his thoughts for us during each of his five official visits. First up is North Carolina, who Barnes visited on Sept. 3…
I arrived at the Carolina Inn at approximately 10:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 3. Outside was Coach (Roy) Williams waiting for me and my family to take us to our rooms. The rooms were really nice.
