Quinton Coples' case for No. 1
Posted Sep 17, 2011
Quinton Coples admits he likes to talk trash, to his North Carolina teammates who try to debate him, to the offensive linemen who try to double-team him, to just about anyone who wants to try challenge him on just about any subject. Yet when he smashes a quarterback, North Carolina's 6-foot-6, 285-pound defensive end goes strangely silent. "I really kind of feel bad for them after I hit them," the Kinston native said.
