Thigpen, Hagen leaving Tar Heels' football staff

Posted Feb 17, 2009
Two more assistants are leaving the football staff at North Carolina, with linebackers coach Tommy Thigpen heading to Auburn and tight-ends coach Steve Hagen on his way to the Cleveland Browns. Coach Butch Davis of UNC said in a prepared statement yesterday that he appreciated the work of both after they helped UNC double its win total from 2007 and reach the Meineke Car Care Bowl last season.
