Mike Fox has put UNC back on top in baseball

Posted Jun 15, 2008

In the days before his baseball team left for the College World Series in Omaha, UNC head coach Mike Fox absorbed a rush of media attention typically experienced by big-name football and basketball coaches. "I'm uncomfortable with it, for one," Fox said, sounding like a man who's being very careful what he wishes for. Too late for that. Ten seasons into his UNC tenure, he has brought the program to a level of unprecedented success. (Raleigh News & Observer)
