Coordinators on the sideline for UNC

Posted Sep 5, 2007

As another consideration to UNC's youth, offensive coordinator John Shoop and defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano will be coaching from the sidelines during games this season, instead of from the press box. With such an inexperienced offense, Shoop liked the idea of making eye contact with quarterbacks as he talked to them. And Pagano figured he could make quicker tweaks on the field, too.
