Movement on the line: Tar Heels make adjustments

Posted Sep 15, 2010
After moving from left guard to center in the spring, UNC sophomore Jonathan Cooper has been moved back to guard after one start at center. Cooper struggled in his debut at his new position against LSU on Sept. 4. Cooper said Tuesday that he doesn't think the switch is permanent, and sometime down the line, he will be back at center. "I think it was just first-game jitters at a position I've never played in a game," Cooper said. (Durham Herald-Sun)
