Posted Apr 4, 2010

The irony of the situation is that the youngest of the group – sophomore Kevin Reddick – runs the show at middle linebacker. Butch Davis opened spring ball by telling the media that building depth behind the experienced first-team was the primary objective of these 15 practice opportunities. (Inside Carolina)
