Anthony Elzy Ready to Display His Burst

Posted Aug 10, 2007

Anthony Elzy’s been labeled a power runner for as long as he can remember. But the redshirt freshman has dropped 20 pounds since weighing in at 225 during spring practice, and has set his sights on the starting running back spot for the Tar Heels this season. “I was always a power runner – I can’t shift or move like Richie Rich and Johnny [White] can,” Elzy said.
