North Carolina's Tyler Hansbrough is a rare cat. You know that if you ever watched him play. His relentless style and physical play have given him the nickname "Psycho T".

We saw the off-court Psycho T in the spring when photos surfaced of he and teammate Bobby Frasor jumping off a balcony and into a pool.

Hansbrough says he won't do that again, but is surprised how much attention it got.

"Like me and Bobby [Frasor, who also took the plunge] have been saying all along: We're in college, and we know a lot of people watch us, but that was fun to me,'' Hansbrough said Monday. " That's what we do, we like to have fun. We're not going to make the best decisions all the time, but who does?"

"We flicked the TV on and it was on PTI and stuff like that,'' Hansbrough said. "We were like, 'Whatever.' We recorded it and showed it to everybody."
