UNC WR T.J. Thorpe to return for Heels against ECU


UNC wide receiver has been praised for his work in the locker room this season. Soon the Jordan High School product expects to make an impact on the field as well. Despite breaking his left foot for the third time in 24 months in August, Thorpe practiced fully on Tuesday and hopes to play in UNC’s next game, Sept. 20 at East Carolina (3:30 p.m., ESPN or ESPNU).
