Tar Heel Brotherhood
Posted Sep 23, 2011
Often this season when North Carolina's offense is on the field, lining up side by side are are No. 68 and No. 89. Those are the jersey worn by brothers James Hurst and Nelson Hurst. James is UNC's sophomore all-star candidate at left offensive tackle. Nelson is a junior who has taken over as the starting tight end after transferring to North Carolina from Mississippi State prior to the 2009 season.
