Digging Deep: Brennan Williams
Posted May 10, 2013
Williams was one of the anchors of a Tar Heel line that finally lived up to expectations. Williams held down the right side of a line that blocked for a 3,000-yard passer in Bryn Renner and a 1,000-yard runner in Giovani Bernard. It was easy for Williams to be overshadowed being on the same line as NFL top-10 pick Jonathan Cooper, but Williams and left tackle James Hurst were rock-solid on the outside.
