UNC's 'Little' Plan: Tar Heels move freshman receiver into backfield
Posted Nov 21, 2007
After four months of practice and 11 games, North Carolina might have found a player who can run the football and gain some yards doing it. Greg Little, a prized freshman, started at tailback in last Saturday’s 27-25 loss at Georgia Tech. And judging by the results, he might stay at the position for three more seasons. Little is slated to start again against Duke on Saturday at home in North Carolina’s season finale.
