Injuries force Tar Heels to adjust lineup
Posted Jan 23, 2012
On Monday, four days after Dexter Strickland tore the ACL in his right knee, Roy Williams announced that Reggie Bullock will move into the starting lineup, beginning with Thursday's home game against N.C. State. Williams said he didn't give serious thought to abandoning a plan to redshirt Leslie McDonald, who suffered a knee injury in July, so at least four Tar Heels must adjust to the trickle-down effect of Strickland's absence.
