Heels have special players

Posted Oct 12, 2007

North Carolina's record may be 2-4, but there are some special athletes on this team, players who are starting to have a huge impact on the action on the field. The most obvious of these is Brandon Tate, a wide receiver/ball carrier/punt returner/kick returner. He has been extraordinary in each of those roles, having shown he can score in any fashion once he gets the ball. Saturday against Miami, he did it on a reverse, racing 54 yards for a touchdown.
