UNC's Houston takes on mission

Posted Aug 6, 2008

Two hundred, fifty pounds would have flattered Ryan Houston last season. But this year? This year, it doesn't give him enough credit. The Tar Heels' reserve running back shed some 35 pounds in the offseason after topping out at 275 a year ago and now is a relatively svelte 240. Svelte might be the wrong word, but put it this way: Houston no longer looks more like an offensive lineman than a running back. (Durham Herald-Sun)
