Louisville offensive line must cope with UNC's Quinton Coples

Posted Oct 6, 2011
Louisville’s offensive line, already enduring its share of growing pains this season, will face the ultimate problem child Saturday at North Carolina. Quinton Coples, a 6-foot-6, 290-pound end, is considered one of the best defensive linemen in the country and a surefire top-10 NFL draft pick come April. “He’s a tremendous player — probably he’ll be the best one we’ll see this year,” U of L offensive line coach Dave Borbely said.
