Sexton's sleeve will stay

Posted Oct 8, 2008
North Carolina quarterback Cameron Sexton has a new look since the last time he was the starter, in 2006. The junior is wearing an elbow-to-bicep sleeve on his throwing arm, a la Allen Iverson. Like the NBA star, Sexton first donned the stretchy white fabric for function, but he now wears it for form. "I started wearing it last year when I was feeling some soreness in my elbow," Sexton said. "I like it, so I'm sticking with it." (Raleigh News & Observer)
