Incredible journey: A.J. Blue has survived obstacles to make UNC's "Senior Day"
Posted Nov 27, 2013
On Saturday, A.J. Blue will be honored by the Tar Heels during “Senior Day” before they play Duke in a game with huge postseason ramifications for both teams. Along the way, he’s survived the death of his older brother (and role model), obstacles to even get to play college football and a severe knee injury in 2009 that threatened his career.
