Reinvented Tar Heels look comfortable with new identity

Posted Jan 29, 2012
The UNC basketball team is in the process of reinventing itself in the wake of Dexter Strickland’s season-ending injury two weeks ago. In the opinion of Georgia Tech coach Brian Gregory, the Tar Heels already have a pretty good grasp on their new identity. “They’re playing at a very high level,” Gregory said after watching his Yellow Jackets’ four-game winning streak against UNC end with a 93-81 beating.
