This season, Larry Fedora’s second in Chapel Hill, is the first in which the entire freshman contingent - redshirt or not - was recruited by Fedora’s staff. It’s not surprising that a new coach would want his players to play in his system. What may be surprising is how well those young players have taken advantage of the opportunities. (GoHeels.com)
