UNC Linebacker Caleb LaVallee on Opportunity, Meshing With Power Echols, and More

Opportunity has surfaced for UNC linebacker Caleb LaVallee, and he’s intent on making the most of it. With Amare Campbell out with a broken hand, LaVallee is one of the backups given extra reps as linebackers coach Tommy Thigpen looks for someone to not only replace Campbell now, but possibly to start the first game at Minnesota on August 29.
