Tomorrow's hot topic in the newspapers will likely be the status of Aleric Mullins. Here's Bunting's comments on him: "Aleric has been cleared by the clearinghouse to come to North Carolina to go to school, practice, and train but will not be allowed to play this year. After this year he'll have three years of eligibility left. If he meets certain criteria by that third year, he'll be able to earn another year." (Tar Heel Blue)
