'Juju' June goes from bottom of UNC's running back depth chart to breakout star

Posted Sep 14, 2025
Entering the season, Demon June was just another name on the UNC football roster. On Saturday, "Juju," the freshman running back from Jacksonville, N.C., exploded for 148 yards and a touchdown in UNC’s 41-6 rout of Richmond, becoming the Tar Heels' first true freshman to lead the team in rushing in back-to-back games since Michael Carter in 2017.
