DE Justin Curry to sign with Tar Heels

Posted Feb 1, 2006

Former Buford star Justin Curry has chosen to follow his famous father's footsteps to the University of North Carolina. Curry, who enjoyed an outstanding senior campaign in his first season as a starter, is expected to "grayshirt" next fall, meaning he won't enroll at Chapel Hill until January 2007; therefore he will not count against North Carolina's scholarship limit for the upcoming season. Curry is the son of former North Carolina All-American and former Falcons linebacker Buddy Curry. (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
