North Carolina Head Coach Roy Williams
We are extremely excited about our season and about earning a No. 1 seed. As always, we're excited about being a part of the NCAA Tournament. We should have some confidence from winning the ACC Tournament, but as I've always said, you build your momentum in the NCAA Tournament. I'm pleased for our fans that we're staying in North Carolina. Hopefully, we'll give them a good showing.
North Carolina senior forward Reyshawn Terry, a native of Winston-Salem, N.C.
"I'm very excited to be playing at home in Winston-Salem, but my main focus is on doing what we need to do. My mom might be more excited than I am. I don't even know how many ticket requests I'm going to get."
North Carolina sophomore guard/forward Marcus Ginyard
"I'm very excited to be in a No. 1 position, but at the same time we've got a long road ahead. Right now, we have to take things one game at a time and focus on Thursday's game. It's great to stay so close to home so we don't have to travel very far. Hopefully, we'll get some good fan support there.
