John Henson is a joker off the court, but has put in serious work on it
Posted Jan 30, 2011
If the college dean wanted to profile pranksters, he might nominate UNC's John Henson for the first template. All the elements are there, the mischievous grin and conspiratorial eyes, the wily Pink Panther glances and the tiptoe moves of a grasshopper unfolding his limbs in sneaky silence. Henson's natural lightheartedness also invites joker attacks, such as the occasion a few weeks back when teammates covered his car in Post-it notes.
