Lessons Learned from the UNC basketball program's inch-close loss at No. 1 Kansas

How did you feel at the end of the first half when the UNC basketball program headed into the locker room down 15?

How did you feel when the Tar Heels were down 20?

Now, how did you feel at the end of the game when UNC had an opportunity to go up one on a corner three from Jalen Washington? And how did you feel when they ultimately fell short 92-89, having taken Kansas's biggest punches of the night, and still had the guts to take the lead in the second half before ultimately falling away?

Not all losses are created equal, and Hubert Davis's team can hold their heads up high after not drowning in the maelstrom at Allen Fieldhouse. North Carolina's ceiling is debatable, but after seeing them last night, you cannot argue that they don't have the mentality to be monsters this season. Let's look at some lessons learned from a tight loss to No. 1 Kansas.
