Posted Sep 11, 2009
UNC receivers dropped at least five passes in the first game of the season, and it's something junior wideout Greg Little finds unacceptable. The former Hillside standout called the wide receivers play subpar and said they've been getting to practice early and staying late this week to make sure they turn in a better performance in Saturday's game at Connecticut (6 p.m., ESPNU).
