Butch Davis praises ACC, addresses offensive line issues

Posted Aug 13, 2009
On the field for the Tar Heels, the offensive line is clearly becoming an issue. Tackle Carl Gaskins just suffered a torn ACL in Wednesday's practice and will miss the whole season. Backup tackle Kevin Bryant just decided to leave the program a day before. Davis compared the offensive line to the wide receiver group in that it's a work in progress every day at practice. "The depth of the offensive line, that's clearly an issue," Davis said. (WRAL Sports Fan)
