Notes and observations from UNC Football's spring game

Posted Apr 22, 2024
North Carolina's defense gave up some big plays during Saturday's spring game, but also caused some havoc. A few tackles for loss, a few "sacks" (sacks in spring game are often called early because tackling the quarterback is very frowned upon) and even a pick-six from junior defensive back Will Hardy off of freshman quarterback Michael Merdinger.
