Ryan Taylor still adjusting
Posted Aug 27, 2008
Ryan Taylor will start a new football season with new duties and new responsibilities, and he'll go through on-the-job training Saturday when UNC opens against McNeese State. Taylor, a North Carolina junior, has switched positions and is now a linebacker. He played tight end his first two seasons. The position change has forced a major adjustment in the last six months -- Taylor has never played linebacker, at any level.
