Sean Tapley "ready to roll" in new role

Posted Apr 12, 2012
There’s been a buzz surrounding Sean Tapley since he arrived on campus but will this be the year he lives up to the hype in a new position on offense? “The ‘A-Back’ is my new role right now,” the Jacksonville (Fla.) native said. “There’s not really a big difference because I’ve been working in the slot since high school. But I’ll also line up in the backfield. I’ll be in the slot and the flank…I’m all over the place." (Carolina Blue)
