Just as in NFL days, Bill Belichick using backfield-by-committee approach
Posted Sep 9, 2025
It’s a look that resembles a method Bill Belichick often used during his tenure with the New England Patriots. Five Tar Heels have at least nine carries, but none has emerged as a clear-cut feature back entering Saturday’s game against Richmond (3:30, ACC Network). Seven players have carries, yet no one has more than 16 attempts or 52 rushing yards.
