Posted Feb 4, 2010
James Hurst and T.J. Leifheit are already on campus at North Carolina, working in the weight room and studying film to get ready for spring practice. The offensive linemen are part of the Tar Heels' 21-player recruiting class for the upcoming season — and they could be immediately valuable for a team that struggled with injuries and depth on the line last season. “They're two very talented players,” coach Butch Davis said Wednesday.
