Barrington Edwards ready to carry the ball, UNC

Posted Aug 14, 2005

The fate of North Carolina's running game this season rests with a smiling, smooth-talking tailback whose arms are covered in tattoos and whose legs haven't run in a game in more than a year. Lady Luck seems to have smiled at Barrington Edwards. At the very least, she has looked his way. He left LSU seeking a school where he could run the ball repeatedly and carry his team to victory in his last three college seasons. (Winston-Salem Journal)
