UNC's Inside Linebacker Depth Still An Issue, But Help Emerging

Posted Jul 3, 2023

However, this season UNC has several players at the position but lack playing time aside from 15 snaps by Deuce Caldwell and three by Sebastian Cheeks. If you're looking for a breakout candidate, Caldwell appears to be a good bet. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
