It seems (by a lot of rumors) that the trio from North Carolina might all be back for one more year at Chapel Hill.

I think Green and Ellington will be back, but I still think Lawson will go high enough that he might stay in the draft.
However, with everything that has happened over the past couple of weeks (the arrest, the missed workout), I wouldn't be surprised if he returned.
