Last week when word came that UNC would go a couple of weeks without Kennedy Meeks on the court, the question was who would pick up the slack. Must be that forward Brice Johnson was paying attention. Johnson has done plenty during the absence of his frontcourt mate in two games and he’ll have a chance to build on that tonight against Appalachian State. (Burlington Times News)
