Sickles hits the big time with UNC recruit Henson
Posted Nov 26, 2008
Almost immediately, John Henson, who signed a letter of intent with the Tar Heels on Nov. 12 and was expected to make his regular-season debut Monday night at Freedom, became the talk of the local basketball community — even though he had never played a game in the area. "We've had some good players go on to some very good schools, but we're talking about being ranked (by some services) in the top five in the country," longtime Chamberlain coach and former USF standout Doug Aplin said.
