I just got this off the wire.
North Carolina senior forward Tyler Hansbrough, the reigning national player
of the year, will be out indefinitely due to a stress reaction condition in
his right shin. Tar Heels head coach Roy Williams announced Thursday night
that an MRI revealed the stress reaction and indicated there is no timetable
for Hansbrough's return. According to the school, Williams will not have a
statement until Friday after he meets with the UNC medical staff and
Hansbrough. Hansbrough averaged 22.6 points and 10.2 rebounds last year,
leading the Tar Heels to a school-record 36 victories. Hansbrough has played
in all 108 games over his first three seasons with the Tar Heels, who start
their season November 15 against Pennsylvania. North Carolina has a remarkable
90-18 record in Hansbrough's games. The Tar Heels were chosen as the No.1
90-18 record in Hansbrough's games. The Tar Heels were chosen as the No.1
ranked team on Thursday in the preseason coaches' poll.
