Nicks Headed to 2009 NFL Draft

Nicks Headed to 2009 NFL Draft

UNC wide receiver Hakeem Nicks declared for the 2009 NFL draft today.

 

In his three years at Chapel Hill, Nicks set 14 school records, including single season receptions (74), career receptions (181), and career touchdowns (21). He is also the only player in UNC history with over 1,000 single season receiving yards.

 

Nicks became UNC's go-to receiver after senior wide receiver Brandon Tate ended his season early with a torn ACL and MCL. With Nicks and Tate both leaving for the NFL, it will be up to a new generation of receivers to carry the Tar Heels next season.

 

Good luck to Nicks and Tate in the draft and their NFL careers, they will represent the Tar Heels well in the NFL.
