Down East Boys Make An Impact
Posted Aug 20, 2009
What's the first thing you think of when someone mentions eastern North Carolina? Probably barbecue. This season, a group of Tar Heels is hoping to put football in the conversation. The Tidewater area of Virginia has produced some notable Tar Heels (Lawrence Taylor, Ronald Curry, Deon Dyer, Bobby Rome), and some contributors have come out of the Charlotte area (Hakeem Nicks, Ryan Houston). But Kendric Burney and Deunta Williams say they've helped open the floodgates east of the I-95 corridor.
