The Flagrant One on Cade Tyson was nonsense

The refs really bit it with this one. Anyone who watched the play could see that Cade Tyson was just trying to swat the layup. If this happened on a playground anywhere in the country, all the players on the court would just stop so Sinani could check on his eye, and the two players involved would just dap up and play ball. Nonsense.

Cade Tyson wasn't needed to play a big role in this win, but time is running short for him to stand up and be counted. He was 0/4 from three and was not especially quick or decisive, taking threes when he caught the ball in spots where he could launch from.

It will only get tougher from here. There are no more LaSalle's for him to gain confidence with. North Carolina desperately needs a fit and firing Cade Tyson at the three spot for them to show their best face against ACC teams.
