North Carolina sophomore outfielder Brian Goodwin has been suspended for the 2011 spring semester for violating university policy, the school announced this afternoon. He plans to return to UNC for the 2011-12 academic year, according to the release. UNC also said the case is not related to the NCAA's investigation into the North Carolina football program.
Goodwin, the No. 6 prospect in the Cape Cod League last summer, is one of the nation's top prospects for the 2012 draft. He's also UNC's most talented player, and his loss is a colossal blow to a team that was relying on his big bat to anchor the middle of the lineup.

I know this young man personally and was shocked to hear this. I hope whatever the offense is, he can learn from it and grow. Get to the cages and do work now young man.
