Ranking the ACC units: Special teams
Posted Jul 23, 2009
9. North Carolina -- This might be the Tar Heels' biggest concern, as they have to replace punter Terrence Brown, and placekicker Jay Wooten decided to transfer. Casey Barth was UNC's primary field goal kicker in 2008 and Wooten was used as the kickoff man. The staff is eager for the arrival of prized recruit C.J. Feagles. Another concern is the return game, which survived without Brandon Tate last year with the help of walk-on Trase Jones.
