Norkeithus Otis: Breakout Bandit

Posted Sep 4, 2013
While the Tar Heels’ inability to find the right fit for the bandit position plagued the defense at times in 2012, Norkeithus Otis’ performance against South Carolina on Thursday night showed the type of potential the bandit position has. Otis made his presence known against the Gamecocks, racking up five tackles – two of them for losses – and getting the Tar Heels’ lone sack. (Carolina Blue)
