Tyler Hansbrough
Andrew Tyler Hansbrough (born November 3, 1985 in Columbia, Missouri), is an American collegiate basketball player for the
North Carolina Tar Heels men's basketball team. Hansbrough was a unanimous selection for the 2006, 2007, and 2008 Atlantic
Coast Conference All Conference Team, 2006 ACC Freshman of the Year, and 2008 ACC Conference Player of the Year. In 2008,
Hansbrough swept all major individual honors in men's college basketball. For a North Carolina men's player to have his
jersey retired, he must win at least one of six national player of the year awards: the Associated Press, the U.S. Basketball
Writers Association, the National Association of Basketball Coaches, Sporting News, the Naismith Award and the Wooden Award,
and wait until his class has graduated. Since Hansbrough has won all six, and is returning for his senior season, he will
have his number 50 retired when he graduates from North Carolina in 2009. Hansbrough is the son of Tami Wheat and Dr. Gene
Hansbrough and brother of former Mississippi State University and future Notre Dame player Ben Hansbrough.
