Lions' Mane Man: UNC's Ebron goes No. 10, gets engaged
Posted May 9, 2014
Eric Ebron delivered a surprise Thursday afternoon, then got a pleasant surprise of his own Thursday night. First the UNC tight end proposed to UNC women’s basketball player Brittany Rountree at the top of the Empire State Building. She said yes. Hours later, the junior was picked 10th overall by the Detroit Lions in the 2014 NFL Draft, becoming the eighth top-10 pick in UNC history.
