Lotto StudParticipantBetween the 2 rivals who has had the most athletic players on their teams, & who was the most athletic player on each team?
I say UNC has had the most athleticism to come through between the 2.
UNC-Vince Carter
Duke-Corey Maggette0 - Posted on: Wed, 08/18/2010 - 6:20am #378894
the I in winParticipantVince takes it and it really isn’t that close. Grant Hill had some rise back in his Piston days.

JoeWolf1I doubt either school really cares about who produced the single most athletic player. It means about as much as between the two rivals, who has had the least athletic player who’s last name also starts with the letter Z.
UNC- Serge Zwikker
Duke- Brian Zoubek0 - Posted on: Wed, 08/18/2010 - 6:28am #378902

stanford hoopsLloyd Church tells the story. He heard it from some UNC assistants. During his campus visit, Melendez played some pickup games with several Tar Heels, including Antawn Jamison and Vince Carter. They heard “El Gato” could jump a little bit, so Carter issued a challenge. “Orlando goes first, and throws down some monster dunk, I don’t even know what he did,” Church says. “And Vince just walked off the floor and said, ‘You win.” Melendez’s memory of the event is a little more specific. “Oh yeah, I think I went through the legs and behind the back,” he says. And Vince? “We went at each other a lot,” Melendez says, smiling. “I don’t think either of us ever won.”

canesboy6ParticipantI’d say on athleticism alone he is probably the best athlete I’ve ever seen on North Carolina.
Same thing for Dahntay Jones probably

PureshooterParticipantI would disagree about Okulaja, I don’t recall him being very athletic.
I would definitely add in Ty Lawson (maybe the fastest player to every play in the ACC) and Marvin Williams for UNC, as well as Ricky Price for Duke.
