Marvin Austin won't practice this week, but other 12 should

Posted Sep 5, 2010
Twelve of the 13 North Carolina players who were either declared ineligible, or withheld, from Saturday’s 30-24 loss to LSU are expected to practice with the Tar Heels this week, a team spokesman said Sunday. However, star defensive end Marvin Austin – suspended two days earlier for breaking school rules – will not. “That’s a [coach] Butch Davis decision,’’ team spokesman Kevin Best said.
