Omarion Hampton cracked the top 20 in all-time UNC football career rushing yards at the end of his sophomore campaign last year. Now, just one game into the 2024 season, the 6-foot, 220-pound bulldozer from Clayton, N.C., has already climbed two more notches to No. 18 on the list. The UNC football record-holder is 1977-80 Tar Heel star Amos Lawrence. (Sports Illustrated)
