North Carolina's men's basketball team is apparently on the brink of adding a fifth player to this season's freshman class. Mike Copeland, a 6-foot-8, 235-pound forward from Winston-Salem, said Sunday he received the two A's he needed via correspondence courses to qualify for a basketball scholarship, and expects to sign with UNC by midweek.
