Dexter Strickland comes home

Posted Mar 25, 2011
If not for prayer -- and a little discipline -- UNC sophomore guard Dexter Strickland probably wouldn't be where he is now: on the verge of playing the biggest game of his life in front of his family and friends in the city where he was born. His father, Dexter L. Strickland, was reminded of that when his son called him one time last year. "Dad," Dexter Strickland said, "I just wanted to thank you for everything you've done for me."
