Posted May 16, 2022
Here are 7 way-too-early predictions for UNC's offense in 2022. 1. Josh Downs will be an All-American. Downs is one of the best wide receivers in the country. The sophomore hauled in 101 passes for 1,335 yards last season and scored 8 touchdowns. Downs has terrific speed, is a strong route runner, and has the ability to make freakishly athletic catches.
