The North Carolina Tar Heels made unwanted history by becoming the first preseason No. 1 to miss the NCAA Tournament entirely on Sunday. The Tar Heels made it clear they are not interested in trying to make up for it in the NIT, either.

In a statement, North Carolina coach Hubert Davis made clear that the Tar Heels are not interested in a trip to the NIT, and that they will instead focus on preparing for next season.
