UNC transfer Justin Knox eager to graduate
Posted May 30, 2010
Soon-to-be Tar Heel Justin Knox admitted he was surprised to arrive at the Smith Center today, and have several members of the media waiting to interview him. Transferring from Alabama, where football rules the school, the 6-feet-9 forward said he's going to have to get used to playing at a place where basketball is king. "It's a good feeling -- knowing that everybody appreciates you; the gym's going to be packed every game, no matter who we play," said Knox.
