Eric Ebron looking forward to expanded role

Posted Aug 23, 2012
The song “Superstar” rang out over the loudspeakers at Navy Practice Field as Eric Ebron went to the sidelines. The UNC tight end took his helmet off and began to sing the lyrics out loud. “If you are what you say you are, a superstar, then have no fear,” Ebron sang, before smiling and adding: “Because Ebron’s here.” The tight end position always has been a focal point in Larry Fedora’s offense.
