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[2], 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 won all six,[3] and returned 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. NBA scouts have so far admitted that it is difficult to predict exactly when in the draft Hansbrough will be selected, but it is generally agreed that once he is drafted, Hansborugh will be at best a journeyman bench player, much like Travis Knight.

High school career

Hansbrough attended Poplar Bluff High School in Poplar Bluff, Missouri and led the Mules to consecutive Missouri state championships (Missouri State High School Activities Association) Class 5 for the 2003-2004[4] and 2004-2005[5] seasons. In 2005, Hansbrough helped Poplar Bluff beat the then undefeated and number one team in the nation, Vashon High School.[6] While in high school he made the Missouri All-State team twice and averaged 28.2 points and 13.4 rebounds per game as a senior. Due to his growing popularity, ESPN featured a high school game on ESPN2 in which Hansbrough's Mules were beaten 56-40 by Greg Oden and his high school team. Hansbrough accepted an offer to play basketball for North Carolina, turning down scholarship offers to play at Duke, Florida, Missouri, Kansas and Kentucky.[7]

Collegiate career

Freshman season

Tyler Hansbrough led the University of North Carolina in scoring with an average of 18.9 points per game.[8] He was second in the ACC in scoring behind J. J. Redick of Duke. Additionally, Hansbrough was unanimously selected as the 2006 ACC Freshman of the Year and was also a unanimous selection to the 2006 All Conference Team. This marked the first time that a freshman had ever been unanimously given 1st team All-ACC honors.[9] He was second to Redick in voting for the ACC Player of the Year award. Hansbrough’s best game as a freshman came on February 15, 2006 when he scored 40 points in a home game against Georgia Tech.[10] This mark set the record for most points ever scored by a freshman in a game in ACC history and for the most points scored in the Dean Smith Center (the previous high had been 38 points by Joseph Forte in 2000 vs. Tulsa).[11]

Sophomore season

With the University of North Carolina signing what was often considered to be the best recruiting class in the country in 2006,[12] Tyler Hansbrough’s minutes per game took a slight drop but he was just as productive as he was during his freshman season. At the end of the regular season, Hansbrough was averaging 18.8 points per game along with 8.0 rebounds per game.

During the March 4, 2007 matchup with Duke University, Hansbrough scored 26 points and grabbed 17 rebounds while leading the Tar Heels to an 86-72 victory. With 14.5 seconds remaining in the game, Duke's Gerald Henderson, Jr. hit Hansbrough with his right elbow, breaking Hansbrough's nose.[13] Henderson was ejected from the game and received an automatic one-game suspension from the NCAA. Hansbrough went on to play with a nose-guard/face mask through the postseason, before taking it off in the second half of a game against Michigan State, in the second round of the 2007 NCAA tournament.

Junior Season

  • Hansbrough’s 22.6 ppg scoring average his junior year is the highest at UNC since since Charlie Scott (27.1 ppg) in 1969-70.[14]
  • Averaged 28.0 points and 12.1 rebounds over seven games of Ty Lawson’s injury in February[15]
  • Tyler Hansbrough's 27 20-point games and 19 double-doubles led the ACC. His 22.6 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3.87 offensive rebounds, 6.36 defensive rebounds and 9.8 free throw attempts per contest also led the conference. He was second in field goal percentage (.540)[16]
  • Hansbrough is the highest scoring junior in ACC history with 2,168 career points.[15]
  • On February 3, 2008 at Florida State, Hansbrough broke Lennie Rosenbluth’s 51-year-old school record for made free throws when he made one with 16:37 to play in regulation[17]
  • Hansbrough has scored 20 or more points in 27 games and 25 or more 16 times his junior season, most in the ACC.
  • Hansbrough grabbed 10 or more rebounds in 19 games his junior season, most in the ACC. He had ACC-leading 10 “20 & 10” games this seasonyear, seven more than any other player in the ACC.[16]
  • By scoring 39 points against Clemson (February 10, 2008), Tyler Hansbrough became one of only two Carolina players in the past 35 years to have at least three 35-point games as a Tar Heel. Antawn Jamison, who had four such games, is the other. Lennie Rosenbluth scored at least 35 points 13 times in his UNC career to lead that category[17]
  • Hansbrough’s 21-rebound game against Florida State (February 3, 2008) was just the sixth game of 21 rebounds or more by a Tar Heel in the past 35 years (Sean May had 24 against Duke in 2005, 21 against Akron and Duke during the 2003-04 season, Mitch Kupchak grabbed 21 against Tulane in 1976, and Bobby Jones had 21 against Duke in 1973).[17]
  • He pulled down 52 rebounds in a three-game span from Feb. 3-10, the best three-game rebounding performance by a Tar Heel since 1968. He averaged 29.7 points and 17.3 rebounds in those three outings. For the season, he averages 10.7 rebounds per game. That is tied as the highest average by a Tar Heel since Mitch Kupchak averaged 11.3 rpg in 1975–-76.[17]
  • Led the team in steals with 59 and in charges drawn with 42* (*needs data for charges drawn in the Final Four game against Kansas.[16]
  • In the ACC semifinals on March 15, 2008 Hansbrough hit a baseline jump shot with 0.8 seconds remaining to give the Tar Heels a 68–66 victory over Virginia Tech. After Ty Lawson drove and missed a shot, Hansbrough took the rebound and scored for the win over the fourth-seeded Hokies. Carolina led Virginia Tech for just 1:29 of the 40-minute contest. [18]

Senior Season

Tyler Hansbrough being congratulated after setting the new school scoring record
  • On April 25, 2008 North Carolina announced that Hansbrough would return for his senior season.[19]
  • Tyler Hansbrough made his third straight Associated Press' preseason All-America based on a unanimous selection.
  • Tyler was also the unanimous choice as ACC preseason player of the year.
  • On October 30, 2008, Tyler Diagnosed with a stress reaction in his right shin, then turned his left ankle while driving to the basket just minutes into his first game of the year at UC Santa Barbara. He missed four games, the first he has missed as a Tar Heel.
  • On December 18, 2008, in a home game in Chapel Hill against the University of Evansville, Hansbrough broke North Carolina's all-time career scoring record, surpassing Phil Ford's total of 2,290 points. That is just the second time in 52 years the UNC record has been broken.
  • Hansbrough grabbed his 1,000th career rebound on December 28 versus Rutgers and is one of seven Carolina players to record 1,000 rebounds in a career.
  • Had a 55-game double figure streak that was the second-longest in UNC history and equaled the 11th-longest in ACC history (ended at Florida State on Jan. 28).
  • With his 24 points against Maryland on February 3, 2009, Hansbrough set two records:
  • Most 20-point games in ACC history (Duke's J.J. Redick had 70) and
  • Most games in double figures by a Tar Heel (Sam Perkins had 118)
  • After the win at Duke on February 11, 2009, seniors Danny Green and Tyler Hansbrough are the only two Tar Heels to play in four wins at Duke since Mike Krzyzewski took over as the Blue Devils head coach. Fellow seniors Mike Copeland, Bobby Frasor and Marcus Ginyard have been a part of teams that won at Duke in the last four meetings in Durham, but they did not play in all four victories.
  • On February 18, 2009, vs. NC State, Hansbrough broke Phil Ford’s record of made field goals to move into first for UNC's field goals made in a career
  • On February 28, 2009, vs. Georgia Tech, Hansbrough set a new NCAA record for most free throws made in a career. He went 8 for 8 at the line against the Yellow Jackets to complete 907 career free throws made. Dickie Hemric of Wake Forest held the previous record with 905, a record that stood for 54 years.
  • Leading the ACC in scoring for the second consecutive season
  • His 22 points at Virginia Tech gave him 2,302 points in 112 wins as a Tar Heel. That is more points than Phil Ford, Carolina’s No. 2 all-time scorer, had in his entire career (2,290)
  • Bidding to become the 10th player in league history to win ACC Player of the Year honors in multiple seasons (Larry Miller, 1967 and 1968, is the only Tar Heel to accomplish that)
  • Could become the first player in ACC history to earn first-team All-America and first-team All-ACC honors in each of his four seasons
  • Voted by the coaches to the NABC District first team (with Ty Lawson)
  • One of only three ACC players (with Ty Lawson and Jeff Teague) to be a USBWA Player of the Year finalist and on the Naismith and Wooden mid-season lists.
  • On pace to become the first player in ACC history to lead his school in both scoring and rebounding in each of his four seasons (Wake Forest’s Dickie Hemric also did that in 1952-55 with his first two seasons played in the Southern Conference)
  • Should become the fifth player in ACC history to lead his school in scoring in four straight seasons (with Virginia’s Jeff Lamp 1978-81, Georgia Tech’s Mark Price 1983-86, Duke’s Johnny Dawkins 1983-86 and Clemson’s Greg Buckner 1995-98).
  • Has 44 career double-doubles, 25 more than any active ACC player
  • Leads the ACC in scoring at 21.1 points a game
  • 4th in free throw percentage
  • 6th in offensive rebounds
  • 6th in field goal percentage
