Dexter Strickland adjusts to UNC
Posted Nov 18, 2009
Dexter Strickland committed to UNC in January 2008 when his high school team played in the Nike Super 6 event at Madison Square Garden. But he didn't fully realize what it meant to be a Tar Heel until he first put on the powder blue uniform more than a year later when this college basketball season started. "I felt honored just to go to the same school as Michael Jordan went to, Vince Carter, Marvin Williams, all those guys."
