For those that might have missed Tyler Hansbrough's record-breaking performance in Greensboro, fear not, for you will have a chance to get a glimpse at history, albeit likely through a glass case.
The ball that Hansbrough used to score his 2,770th career point, a point that vaulted him past J.J. Redick for the all-time ACC scoring lead, was given to Psycho-T after the game by Roy Williams.
Hansbrough was appreciative of the NCAA and his coach for giving him the ball, but said that he wouldn't be holding onto it for very long.
"I'll put it in the museum so everybody can look at it - the North Carolina basketball museum," Hansbrough said after his history-making game against Radford Thursday afternoon. "If I just kept it at home in some case there wouldn't be as many people that would get to see it. I want all of the North Carolina fans to have a chance to go and look at it."
