Deacs fret over UNC wideouts

Posted Oct 26, 2007

Last week it was Navy's option attack. This week it's North Carolina's receivers. Hakeem Nicks, Brandon Tate, Brooks Foster and Greg Little have Wake Forest defensive coordinator Dean Hood looking like "a basket case" for the second week in a row, according to coach Jim Grobe. Hood looks like he has combed his hair with a hand grenade because he's worried about stopping the best group of receivers the Deacons have faced, Grobe said. (Charlotte Observer)
