Heels freshman is one tall order
Posted Jan 13, 2007
New North Carolina wide receivers coach Charlie Williams was stunned the first time he saw the Tar Heels play basketball this season. He was impressed with the talent running the floor, and flabbergasted at the spindly-legged freshman wearing No. 34. Williams watched Brandan Wright stab at a rebound with his long arms. "He never left his feet," Williams said. "Got the rebound and put it back in as if it was a baby basket."
