UNC wide receiver Nate McCollum, who has been called “Minnesota Nate” in preseason camp, was asked if he might be a marked man Thursday at Minnesota, given the way he tormented the Gophers last year at Kenan Stadium. “I hope not,” the 5-9 senior said, grinning. McCollum might be one of the Gophers’ defensive targets, but he's not the only one. (AOL.com)
