Ground game pushed Terps to win vs. UNC
Posted Nov 18, 2008
Terrapin offensive coordinator James Franklin encourages his players to give him suggestions during games if they see trends he may be missing from up in the coaches' booth. Early in the fourth quarter of the football team's 17-15 win Saturday against then-No. 17 North Carolina, guard Jaimie Thomas donned a headset and contacted Franklin. "He said, 'Look - let's run the ball. Let's run at them. Let's come off the ball,'" Franklin said. "And we were able to do that."
