Heels guard Wayne Ellington staying
Posted Apr 10, 2007
Wayne Ellington will return to UNC for his sophomore season, his dad said Monday. But whether teammates Tyler Hansbrough, Ty Lawson and Brandan Wright return with him remains to be seen. Those decisions could come as soon as tonight, when the Tar Heels hold their annual basketball awards banquet. Gene Hansbrough, the father of the sophomore All-America forward, said Monday only that "an announcement is coming soon" about his son's future.
