Tyler Hansbrough 'extremely doubtful' for Penn
Posted Nov 13, 2008
It looks like UNC will have a chance to do something against Penn it hasn't done since the NCAA Championship game against Illinois in 2005: Win a game that counts without Tyler Hansbrough. The Tar Heels' star center is "extremely doubtful" for Saturday's season opener against Pennsylvania with a stress reaction in his right shin. "We've made the decision to hold Tyler Hansbrough out of action a little longer," UNC coach Roy Williams said.
