UNC / Knicks fans out there?

I will never forget Villanova tearing UNC’s heart out in 2016. Now I root for this Nova redux team. Just keep Kris Jenkins away from the Knicks and I think I can stomach it.

Yessir but it was a great game. Both teams earned each others respect that game. I love these dudes

Carolina alum and Knicks fan. I’ve gotten over my Nova dislike thanks to Brunson and co obviously but I also think winning that 2017 title really helped ease the pain of the 2016 nova loss

I am a fan of a college basketball team in North Carolina, but it’s not the Tar Heels.

Same. Never had the hate for Nova though. Those were great teams that played the right way and we lost good games to them. Left it all on the court. I’m loving this Knicks team.

This right here explains why I don’t take a rooting interest in any college basketball team. Never know who is gonna end up a Knick.
