Dre Bly believes sitting out has made UNC’s Storm Duck a better cornerback

Posted Aug 20, 2021
UNC sophomore Storm Duck hasn’t played a meaningful snap since being injured in the second game last season at Boston College. When he left the lineup, he was the Tar Heels’ shut-down corner. As he returns healthy and practicing again, UNC cornerbacks coach Dre Bly believes Duck could actually be better than the last time he played in a game. (MSN.com)
