Kendric Williams may start for Tar Heels

Posted Aug 25, 2007

Kendric Williams wanted two things before his football career at North Carolina ended. He has one. The other could happen soon. Williams, a 5-11, 195-pound cornerback from Charlotte, was awarded a scholarship earlier this month after working his way through the ranks since joining the program as a walk-on in 2004. Now he wants to be a starter, and that might happen Sept. 1, when North Carolina opens against James Madison. (Winston-Salem Journal)
