Hurst brothers starting for UNC
Posted Aug 19, 2011
As a reserve tight end last season,UNC's Nelson Hurst occasionally got to line up beside younger brother James, a starting offensive tackle who earned freshman All-America honors. Now that Nelson is expected to start, too, expect to see them side-by-side more often. "When you're in the game together, you don't really pay that much attention - especially because we're used to it,'' Nelson Hurst, now a redshirt junior, said. "But it is a neat thing."
