A signing & Tyler's thumb
Posted Wednesday, November 14, 2007, at 6:17 AM
We'll have news of a major signing (think Big 12) in today's DAR (hopefully). Alex Abate is working on that story this morning.
Meanwhile, North Carolina opens the season tonight against Davidson (6 p.m. ESPN).
More on the game here.
There was this item on Roy Williams' radio show about Tyler Hansbrough's injured thumb.
"After I met with the team, I went to the trainer's room to check on Tyler and everyone was laughing like crazy, so I thought that was a good sign. His thumb for two years just keeps getting jammed. He's fine, we held him out of contact on Saturday morning and today let him practice. If we'd had to play a big-time game, he'd have gone back in, but that's just Tyler. What they were all laughing about is they were checking his right thumb and then they checked the left to get a comparison and they figured out the left was much worse than the right."
