Withers, Tar Heels open preseason practice
Posted Aug 5, 2011
Everett Withers had spent the past three seasons focusing on North Carolina's defensive players, yelling to motivate them or pulling them aside to talk about technique. He had a lot more to worry about Friday in his first practice as the Tar Heels' interim coach. "I just didn't know where to go," Withers said. "Am I going to go watch the running backs? Go watch the receivers?"
