Tar Heels impress Austin

Posted Jan 17, 2007

It has been almost two months since five-star defensive tackle Marvin Austin out of Washington (D.C.) Ballou has taken an official visit. With just a month to go before Signing Day, the 6-foot-2, 291-pounder has two visits left - including one to odds-on favorite Florida State. Before heading to Tallahassee though, Austin made a trip to Chapel Hill to check out Butch Davis and the Tar Heels. (USA Today)
