Young receivers must catch on for Tar Heels
Posted Jun 26, 2009
UNC featured one of the most potent wide receiver corps in the ACC in 2008. Even with quarterback T.J. Yates missing half the season with an injury, the passing game hardly dipped. The opportunity to throw to Hakeem Nicks, Brandon Tate and Brooks Foster is one any quarterback would want. Unfortunately for Yates, all three of those receivers were taken in April's NFL draft. Now, it’s up to a young, unproven receiver corps to make sure the team's passing game produces.
