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." (SNY.tv)
