    There's not a single person named Sam, Mike, or Will on the Tar Heel two-deep depth chart, and yet those have been some of the most frequently discussed names during training camp. As Butch Davis searches for more depth at linebacker, he's looking for a certain type of player to fill the Sam, Mike, and Will linebacker roles.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081908aab.html Vets Can Laugh Now At Freshman Transition http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081908aab.html Tue, 19 Aug 2008 07:16:45 PST

    Carolina won't have to rely as heavily on freshmen this season as did the 2007 squad. But the rookies who do play will experience something all of last year's freshmen endured: that jarring welcome-to-the-ACC moment.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081708aaa.html Extra Points: Something New Around The Tar Heels http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081708aaa.html Sun, 17 Aug 2008 22:36:51 PST

    When we last saw the Tar Heels, Greg Little was at the bottom of a scrum in the east end zone of Kenan Stadium, the field was covered in firewords-induced haze and the clang of the Victory Bell was resonating through the chilly November night. So much has happened over the last eight months. From that springboard has evolved a multitude of changes and improvements around Tar Heel football that hopefully will result in a stark improvement over last season's four-win total and the loss of six games by seven points or less.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081508aaa.html Fifth-Year Quintet To Play Big Role http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081508aaa.html Fri, 15 Aug 2008 06:20:20 PST

    Carolina's five fifth-year seniors on the 2008 roster say they don't see many common traits in themselves. But they do exist. Most have fought through injuries. All have seen massive change in the program. And all five are poised to play a significant role this season.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081408aab.html Lucas: Wily Goddard Keeps Camp Loose http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081408aab.html Thu, 14 Aug 2008 07:14:45 PST

    It's always the quiet ones. This is the point in training camp where players occasionally need some diversions to break up the monotony of camp.

    When T.J. Yates approaches the line of scrimmage, he's still several steps from receiving the snap. Before he can perform that most basic of football tasks, the Tar Heel quarterback must go through a series of complicated checks and reads to make sure the Carolina offensive play is well-suited to attack the opposing defense. If he reads incorrectly, it could be disaster. If he makes the right choices, however, a big play is only a nod of his head away.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081208aab.html Youth Day Tickets On Sale Now http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081208aab.html Tue, 12 Aug 2008 12:25:07 PST http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081208aaa.html Road Hogs Hungry For Chemistry http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081208aaa.html Tue, 12 Aug 2008 00:15:56 PST

    Since the first day of training camp, Butch Davis has been adamant that he wants to find the five most cohesive offensive linemen, not necessarily the five best. Fortunately, offensive line is a position that lends itself to chemistry.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081108aam.html Lucas: Players Picky About Gear http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/081108aam.html Mon, 11 Aug 2008 10:22:21 PST

    When it comes to Tar Heels who are finicky about their uniforms and equipment, there are three distinct groups: there are those who don't care, there are the kickers...and then there is Greg Little. Terrence Brown and his fellow specialists have their performance-based quirks, but Little might be the most finicky player on the roster.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080808aac.html Dwight Jones Joins North Carolina Football Program http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080808aac.html Fri, 08 Aug 2008 16:18:01 PST

    For some players, serving time on the scout team is a punishment. For others, it's an opportunity. Tar Heel senior Cooter Arnold took the latter route, and he may have converted his time on the scout squad into a productive new home at wide receiver.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080708aaa.html Davis Stresses Special Emphasis http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080708aaa.html Thu, 07 Aug 2008 06:50:13 PST

    Butch Davis often takes a CEO role at practice, observing his team and letting his position coaches impart some wisdom. But the Carolina head coach is extremely hands-on during special teams periods, and with good reason--as the Tar Heels learned in 2007, special teams can be the difference-maker for a team on the verge of a good season.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080608aaa.html Lucas: Two-a-Day Tales http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080608aaa.html Wed, 06 Aug 2008 06:21:35 PST

    An annual football rite of passage begins today for Carolina, as the Tar Heels will hold their first two-a-day practices of training camp. Over the last five years, the NCAA has cut way back on the amount of two-a-days teams can hold--and surprisingly, players wish they could have even more.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080508aab.html Old Faces In New Places http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080508aab.html Tue, 05 Aug 2008 06:34:22 PST

    There are several new names on the earliest 2008 depth chart--but they're actually old names. In Butch Davis's continuing effort to get more speed on the field, several Tar Heels have switched positions and have discovered good opportunities to earn playing time.]]> http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080408aaa.html Tar Heels Searching For Backfield Depth http://onlyfans.cstv.com/schools/unc/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080408aaa.html Mon, 04 Aug 2008 08:05:06 PST

    Greg Little says he's intent on maintaining Carolina's formerly held status as Tailback U. To do that, the Tar Heels will need to produce another 1,000-yard rusher. But they'll also need to establish depth in the backfield and get production from backs other than Little.]]>
