Brandon Tate a special force for North Carolina

Posted Oct 7, 2008
It didn't take long for North Carolina's Brandon Tate to make an impact during his freshman year. In just the fourth game of the 2005 season, he returned the opening kickoff of his team's contest against Utah 96 yards for a touchdown. "I remember the crowd, the feeling," Tate told the Raleigh News & Observer, "and that I wanted to do it again." And he has done it again. Over and over and over again. (South Bend Tribune)
