Heels hurting on the offensive line

Posted Aug 17, 2009

But that was the only phrase that Tar Heels offensive tackle Alan Pelc could use to describe North Carolina's unit this season, which has seen its depth chart shrink uncomfortably since the start of training camp. After losing two senior starters from last season to graduation, the Tar Heels already were seeing tight numbers before camp even started. (Raleigh News & Observer)
