Larry Fedora wants to put more of the workload on North Carolina's running backs

Posted Jul 28, 2015
North Carolina returns quarterback Marquise Williams and nine other starters on offense, a big reason why there is optimism for the Tar Heels this season.

UNC has relied heavily on Williams in the run game the past two seasons, partly because the Tar Heels have not had one running back they could rely on. (ESPN.com)
