Rushing forward
Posted Jul 25, 2009
The value of a productive running game, and by productive, one means the best since Carolina last produced a 1,000-yard back in 1997, when Jonathan Linton gained 1004 yards, is vital to the success for UNC this football season. Quarterback T.J. Yates does not need to be throwing the ball in predictable situations on a frequent basis, particularly to a youthful group of wide receivers, any of whom are just as likely to run the wrong route or turn the right instead of left and hang Yates out to dry.
