Nick Polino Missed Six Games, but He Was Never Missing for the Tar Heels
Posted Nov 13, 2019
It was like he never left, because he never did. After going down with a lower body injury in UNC's second game of the season, senior offensive lineman Nick Polino missed six games, but he wasn’t missing from the Tar Heel program. “I mean, he's coaching guys on the sideline,” offensive coordinator Phil Longo said. "He's involved as he was before."
