If you think you can get playing time, then UNC is a no-brainer. Man the Tar Heels are what legends are made of.

Just curious, what were your stats in high school?

well i mean getting a scholarship isnt just a free ride.....u still have to practice and keep up a good GPA......and with basketball u really cant rely on a 2nd job that well (unless ur workin at like a micky d's or somethin) cuz ur too busy with basketball practice, but i mean if ur that good then go for it....if i had one of those picks id pick the AZ just cuz i was born there lol....but id pick UNC cuz like everybody said they do have the most baksetball background its pretty much where names get big there

first off, don't choose arkansas. seen a piece on espn last year about having the worst graduation rank in d1 (maybe of all college basketball), with nine percent of the players recieving a diploma. just not a good situation overall to get into. if you are a good player & think you have a shot at the starting lineup, don't choose rutgers. if you're planning on a more academic oriented school & think you can keep your grades up (which will be extremely difficult, but if you like challenges, go for it), choose them. if you're good but don't know about playing time, go with rutgers. they just had a player picked out of the first round this past draft. if you are a gifted athlete & want to go to the nba someday, choose arizona or north carolina. i know i used a good amount of the word "if", but i don't know of you, so i had to choose what i said somewhat loosely. learn about what those schools & what they can offer you, before you choose one. academics, dorms, training facilities, coaches, will all be some of the main factors to look at. see which coach's philosophy of the game you agree more with. there's so many different factors that can go into this choice. just make sure to think about it thoroughly, because it is going to be a life changing decision.
