Friendly rivalry for Nicks, Houston
Posted Nov 7, 2008
North Carolina teammates Hakeem Nicks and Ryan Houston insist they haven't been talking too much trash about tonight's showdown rivalry between their high school alma maters. They say it all with their eyes. “We just do a little inside thing, we give each other a little look like, ‘You know what Friday is, man,'” said Houston, a sophomore running back who played at second-ranked Matthews Butler, which plays No. 1 Charlotte Independence tonight.
