Tar Heels’ Ebron is epitome of quality tight end

Posted Nov 15, 2013
Given his Big Ten and pro-style roots, Pitt coach Paul Chryst has a distinct appreciation for what an effective tight end can bring to a college football offense. So when he watched film of UNC junior Eric Ebron this week, he was impressed. “You love watching him on tape, and then all of a sudden you’re like, ‘Shoot, we’ve got to play him,’” Chryst said. “He’s good, and I love a good tight end.” (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette)
