Tar Heels already taking shots

Posted Jun 17, 2008

At a high school baseball field in the suburbs of Omaha on Monday, a short, likable man named Mike Fox was walking around the UNC practice, interviewing media members. He asked reporters their favorite restaurants in Omaha, and their favorite Tar Heels to quote. He likes to film players, too, asks them tough questions, gets the inside scoop. This is somewhat disconcerting to everyone, mostly because Mike Fox is the head coach at North Carolina. (Fresno Bee)
