Position-less Hairston finds big groove with smaller Tar Heels
Posted Feb 19, 2013
The smaller lineup that seems to have reinvented North Carolina has been fueled by easy-to-identify opportunities and mismatches created by P.J. Hairston’s increased playing time. As for the name of the starting position Hairston has been plugged into, well, that’s not exactly definable. “I don’t really know what I am,” the sophomore said. “I can pretty much play any position if I’m asked to.”
