Dakota’s Notebook: Air Raid in Chapel Hill

Posted Jul 8, 2019
One of UNC football coach Mack Brown’s biggest moves this offseason was bringing in Phil Longo to run his Air Raid offense. Longo is formerly of Ole Miss, where he helped receivers like A.J. Brown and D.K. Metcalf turn into NFL prospects. The Air Raid offense operates at a high tempo, getting the ball into and out of the quarterback’s hands within seconds. (Chapelboro.com)
