Iowa prep star Barnes picks UNC over Duke, Kansas

Nov. 13, 2009
CBSSports.com wire reports

AMES, Iowa -- Iowa prep phenom Harrison Barnes says he'll play for North Carolina.

Barnes, a 6-foot-7 swingman from Ames, is widely regarded as the top player in the Class of 2010.

Barnes was also considering Duke, Kansas, Oklahoma, UCLA and Iowa State, his hometown school. He made his announcement Friday before hundreds of students in the gym at Ames High School.

Barnes led Ames to a 26-0 record and a state title last winter, but he's made a name for himself nationally with impressive performances on the summer circuit.

Caring Fan

I heard Coach K and die-hard Duke fans are on suicide watch.  Just keep an eye out for them.  If you really want to help show them their '91 & '92 championship.  Sometimes it's best to just listen.  What I am curious about is how Barnes was the savior to Duke fans today at 3:55, but what is he now?  Go Heels
