N.C. Shrine Bowl team loaded at wide receiver

Posted Dec 17, 2010
The North Carolina squad is loaded at receiver, led by the athletic [UNC commit] T.J. Thorpe and Sherman Ragland and leaper Marcus Leak at receiver, and tight ends Eric Ebron (UNC commit playing wideout) and Eric MacLain. There are some talented defensive backs on the South Carolina team such as Pat Martin (although he's been injured most of the week), Julius Pendergrass and Ronnie Martin, but each is a tough matchup against either the size of the NC receivers or the speed in some cases.
