Rob Landry: Inside the Life of a Biscuit Boy

  (Photo Courtesy Nicholas Faulker/GettyImages)  By JEREMIAH ARTACHO Chapel Hill, N.C. — Rob Landry, a 6-foot-4 and 190-pound senior walk-on from Greensboro, North Carolina starred as part of UNC's "Biscuit Boys." Attracting many fans who sit in the bleachers of the Dean Dome cheering on their teammates from the end of the bench. Landry began his time on the junior varsity team and eventually tried out to be a part of UNC's roster. He ultimately made it but the journey was not easy by any means. During a time when the whole world experienced an epidemic, it was hard for everyone to go out and do as they pleased.  Landry's relationship with the other Biscuit Boys, Creighton Lebo, and Duwe Farris traces miles beyond the hardwood, "We're super tight," he said. It helps to have friends in similar situations that go through the same stuff on the team. Knowing that we won't necessarily be the ones getting the playing time but at the same time we do get...

   (Photo Courtesy Jim Hawkins/Inside Carolina) Chapel Hill - UNC vs. Villanova is here.   Coach Davis and the Tar Heels are presented with a contest that has a very intense past history.   Back in the 2016 National Championship after beating a 10-seeded Syracuse team during the Final Four that ended with a score of 83-66.

UNC Basketball Preview: Jumpman Invitational

(Photo Courtesy Jim Hawkins/Inside Carolina)  Chapel Hill - Tomorrow, December 20th, at 9:00 p.m., the Tarheels will play the #7 Oklahoma Sooners in the Jumpman Invitational. Last season, the Heels won this special event against Michigan by a score of 80-76. Coach Davis and his team seek to snap their two-game losing streak after the battles involving #5 UConn in the Jimmy V Classic and #9 Kentucky in the CBS Sports Classic. UNC went toe-to-toe against Kentucky, shrinking deficits throughout the game, which unfortunately resulted in a turnover during their last halfcourt possession in what looked to be a setup for an RJ Davis catch-and-shoot three-pointer. However, Davis blasted for 27 points with seven rebounds and four assists, alongside Cormac Ryan's 20-point outing, shooting eight of twelve for the game and four of seven from behind the three-point line. Davis continues to be exceptional for North Carolina and displays such poise on the offensive end of the ball. The senior gu...
