Johnny White edges to top of UNC running-back rotation

Posted Sep 13, 2007

Johnny White knows the names of all the top running backs in North Carolina’s history. He has studied some and followed others, knows what they did and what they meant to their teams. His career at UNC is all of two games old, but he knows where he wants it to go. He would like to be considered among the school’s best backs by the time he is finished running in Kenan Stadium.
