UNC clears Draughn to play against Georgia Tech

The University of North Carolina keeps saying every case is an individual one, and at least one more case has been resolved. On Monday, the school announced that senior tailback Shaun Draughn has been cleared to play and will be in the lineup against Georgia Tech Saturday in Kenan Stadium.

Draughn was one of 13 players held out of the LSU game as the school worked to determine his eligibility.

Carolina started Johnny White at tailback against LSU, but White fumbled early in the game and the Heels appeared to lose confidence in him. Anthony Elzy, a converted fullback, got the bulk of the carries.

Draughn, 6 feet and 210 pounds, rushed for 567 yards and a score last year before suffering a shoulder injury against Duke.
